Bullying: Government Documents

To use One Search to find government resources on Bullying you can do a general keyword search.

However to make your search your targeted, you can use the Advanced Search feature and input specific terms or phrases under "Subject." Examples include such phrases as

• Bullying
• Bullying in schools
• Cyberbullying
• School violence
• Bullying in the workplace

You can also combine terms under "Subject."  For example, you can start with the term "bullying" and then add to it, depending on what you are interested in.

• Bullying
• Bullying -- Prevention

Then you can add a geographic area to refine your search

• Bullying -- Government policy -- United States

You can continue to add terms to the phrase

• Bullying -- Prevention -- United States -- Evaluation

Add terms such as "congressional hearing" or "statutes and codes" to limit your search to Government Documents.  You can also add terms such as "U.S. Congress" to the Author field.

You can limit the number of resources you receive to Government Documents by Library Sublocations, i.e. where the item is (Government Publications - Stacks), or by Material Type (Government Documents) or by Author (using a particular government agency such as Center for Disease Control or Library of Congress or United States Congress House).

When you find a resource you like, look at its "Subjects" to find more or better search terms.  You may use these same terms in the library databases.  

By using the filters on the left side of the page in One Search, you can limit your search to Government Documents.

You can also limit by date range, subject, and language.  You can choose to see all documents or only those available online or only those available on the library shelves.
