In honor of National Men’s Health Week (June 12 – June 18), here is a quick tip for finding men’s health-related content (scholarly articles, books, newspaper articles, etc.) using the search box (Summon) on the Library’s homepage.
- Type a simple phrase (or any search terms) into the Summon search box like follows: men’s health
- Use the filters in the left sidebar to limit the search results to newspaper articles and magazine articles. Hint: click More… below the CONTENT TYPE filter section
- Click APPLY at the top of the page
- Limit to content published from 2010-present
The filters built in to Summon are a good way of reducing the overall number of results, especially when searching for a general or broad topic. The remaining set of results for a search on men’s health should now be focused to relatively recent newspaper/magazine sources. You can easily change the filters to retrieve any publication type depending on your needs.
