Limiting in LIRNSearch

Earlier in this training, we discussed methods for finding more results. However, sometimes LIRNSearch can also bring you thousands of results - that is great at first, but it is a lot of results to look through!

Work Smarter, Not Harder

Why should you limit your results? Limiting is the process of using the LIRNSearch features to filter your results, eliminate possibilities, and present fewer (more relevant) sources.

As you search and review your results, taking a few minutes to carefully apply filters could help you find the most relevant results faster.

Work smarter, not harder - use filters to limit your results!

In This Section

The next few pages of this training will outline various methods for limiting your search, and why/when you may want to use them.

Remember

Press "Go" to re-run your search.

As discussed previously, after you make changes to your search (such as adding limits), be sure to click "Go" to apply the changes and refresh your results.
