I am looking for information on Stolen Art 

published in the past two years.

For this search I chose Art Abstracts Database. I looked at the search by subject page for art and it showed EBSCO’s Art Abstract database. Since I was looking for an art subject I chose this one. The search term I used was ‘stolen art’. I performed a visual search. When it retrieved the articles, I sorted them by date, as this was another criteria I needed for my search. I then took the screenshot below.

For this search I chose the ERIC Database. I looked at the search by subject page for library science and it showed many databases. I chose the ERIC one as it is an educational database and it also stated that it also contained some full text articles, which I needed. The search term I used was ‘readers advisory’. When it retrieved the articles, I sorted them by date, as this was another criteria I needed for my search. I then added the relevant articles to my folder and printed the bibliography. These are the articles it retrieved that were published in the past five years.
