Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Picking keywords carefully can produce more useful results.
Narrowing the time frame is often used to assist the researcher to limit a literature search for the most current information on the topic of interest.
A thorough literature review would not be limited to one researcher's articles.
Using only printed sources would severely limit a researcher in conducting a thorough literature review.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Within each database, there is the opportunity to link to the full text of an article. When this feature is used, the reader is taken to the full text if held within or through that database. The reader does not actually exit from the original site.
This is not the importance of linking.
No pop-ups are a part of the linking feature.
The move from one database to another is a desirable feature, but is not available yet.
