1. I did a basic search on Pope Francis. I was surprised at how many entries came up. On the left side there were several suggestions as to how to narrow the search. I chose to limit it by publication and the list of entries reduced by about 20,000. Proquest is a great resource for students doing research. I also used it quite a bit when I got my Masters degree a few years ago. I was having trouble finding current articles on a topic that needed to be researched and I finally found some using Proquest.
2. I searched for the "Reading Teacher" journal. It is provided from 1988 to the current date of 2014. I saw that I could set up an alert to keep on top of when the journal was available. I searched for the term "prior knowledge" within the publication of "Reading Teacher" and 458 entries were found. If I find articles I wish to save, I can. I can also email or print a copy if I needed to. Because I don't do it often enough, I was pleased to see that citing options were available to help people like me.
