Find at least five resources that give you a sense of that monument’s history: the event that precipitated the memorial, the origins of the memorial, any controversies surrounding the monument, etc. What is the dominant narrative this site tells and what is the subversive narrative that may be read between the lines?</p> <p>(Note that all of the content on JSTOR are from scholarly sources, but some of the older content may not be <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20201020084934/https://support.jstor.org/hc/en-us/articles/115011338628-Searching-Are-JSTOR-articles-peer-reviewed-"><span style="font-weight: 400;">peer-reviewed</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. Make sure you're sure whether you need peer-reviewed items before starting.)</span></p> <p>First, we have to choose a monument. For our purposes, let’s talk about the Vietnam Memorial. You can use "Vietnam Memorial" as the keywords in your search.</p> <p>Once you've identified some keywords, the next thing you’ll want to do is search the term to get a sense of what's available. Start by going to <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20201020084934/https://www.jstor.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">jstor.org</a> and entering your keyword "Vietnam Memorial" in the search box. You might see a lot of results:</p> <figure><img src="/web/20201020084934im_/https://support.jstor.org/hc/article_attachments/360044223894/vietnam_memorial.png" alt="search box with vietnam memorial search query"/><br/> <figcaption> <p>You can see in the screenshot, the estimate is that this search will get a lot of results (don't worry if your number isn't the same as this screenshot--different accounts have different levels of access).</p> </figcaption> </figure> <p>There’s no way to look through that many results, so you may want to decrease the number of results. Identify other keywords from your research project. If you enter "Vietnam Memorial narrative controversy," for example, in the search box, the search results decrease to around 2,000.

This is why <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20201020084934/https://www.jstor.org/register" target="_blank" rel="noopener">creating a free personal account</a> is really handy--signing in can help you keep track of your research, no matter what school or location you're accessing JSTOR from. Once your'e signed in, if you'd like to save articles you find helpful, you can keep track of them within the JSTOR website by clicking “Save” on the right side of the search results. The button looks like this:</p> <figure class="wysiwyg-text-align-center"><img src="/web/20201020084934im_/https://support.jstor.org/hc/article_attachments/360009658714/myws_SAVE.PNG" alt="Save button"/></figure> <p>We have another article that shows you <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20201020084934/https://support.jstor.org/hc/en-us/articles/360007226454-NEW-My-Workspace-for-Organizing-Research">how to use Workspace for your research</a></p> <p>If you prefer to use a different way to keep citations (like Endnote or RefWorks) you can click on “Cite this item” instead. The button looks like either:</p> <figure class="wysiwyg-text-align-center"><img src="/web/20201020084934im_/https://support.jstor.org/hc/article_attachments/360045650433/mceclip2.png" alt="mceclip2.png"/></figure> <p class="wysiwyg-text-align-center">OR</p> <figure class="wysiwyg-text-align-center"><img src="/web/20201020084934im_/https://support.jstor.org/hc/article_attachments/360044792194/mceclip3.png" alt="mceclip3.png"/></figure> <p>When you click "Cite" or "Cite this Item", it will give you the option to export the bibliographic information for that article to another citation manager system.

You can add External References to your Workspace. Just go to your workspace, and click the button that says "Add."</p> <figure class="wysiwyg-text-align-center"><img src="/web/20201020084934im_/https://support.jstor.org/hc/article_attachments/360009658794/myws_add_external.PNG" alt="Add button"/></figure> <p>You can click on any item in Workspace to be taken to the article page.

This will allow you to break up a big search into smaller pieces. Using the Advanced Search on JSTOR can help you get really specific about the kinds of content you want to see. For example, if you only want to see journal articles, not books, you can check off journals in the "Narrow By: Item Type" section of that page.</p> <h3>Text Analyzer</h3> <p>If you've found a really helpful article on JSTOR and want to find more like it, you can use that article to do further searching through our <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20201020084934/https://support.jstor.org/hc/en-us/articles/360000063528-An-Introduction-to-Searching-on-JSTOR#usingtextanalyzer" target="_self">Text Analyzer feature</a>.
