Finally we see the biography we found in WorldCat, "20 years of my life", listed under the heading Subject. Selecting that option will bring us toHistorical Abstracts' listings on that particular title. Since that link returned us to the first listing, we can be assured that there is little else on Douglas Sladen here.Always try a few subject searches, such as "egypt travel writer" or "oriental cairo," just to make sure we have exhausted the resource for this particularsubject.

First, we need to fill in the text boxes. Note that you can limit your results
to the exact phrase by surrounding it with quotation marks. For instance, "Douglas Sladen"would search just for that name, not results in which just Douglas or just Sladen appear.
Next we must select the journals we wish to search according to their academic
discipline.
If we had located specific journals in which Douglas Sladen had published articles, or in which articles had been published about him, we couldselect the Expand Journal List option here, or Browse in the topmost tool bar, to choose those journals. For our present stage of research the full text searchwill be the most productive.
Finally we will open our search to include every category, including
book reviews and bibliographies, by selecting the appropriate boxes in the area belowthe journal listings.
We find 14 results for our search. Note that JSTOR weights results, so that the
result judged most appropriate (based on how many times it appears or whether the term appearsin the title) will come first.
A brief look at a few of theresults shows that JSTOR produces articles, citations (here, meaning the appearance
of Sladen's name in a foot or end note), book reviews, bibliographies--anything inthe catalog that contains the words douglas and sladen in that order within 14 words
of each other. Let's begin with the first result.
