Exercise caution when employing AI to generate search results. Large Language Models (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude, LLaMa 2, Gemini) are statistical models that recreate patterns of human language. These AI tools are not yet reliable enough for precise, sourced research and should be used only in capacities that accommodate for their limitations.

Use many of the advanced search operators by filling in the fields on Google Advanced Search.

Log your searches to keep track of what you’ve done using this format:

​

1. Search engine or database used

2. Time and date of search

3. Exact search query

Google and other search engines adjust your results based on your location, search history, browsing history, and other factors, meaning your search results may look different from other people’s. To avoid personalized results, you can turn off Google’s personalization or use a search engine that doesn’t track you, such as DuckDuckGo or Qwant.
