Proquest Publications
I found this assignment( searching publications) to be much more rewarding than the other (basic search)--perhaps it was the fact that I was searching for a keyword in a publication, in this instance" school library" was the topic. I received two options--School Library Journal and School Library Monthly, both of which provided full text articles in previous issues. A search within School Library Journal led me to articles specifically on what I chose, "technology". I could see the advantage of this process in searching for articles in archives. If the researcher knew of a particular journal and wanted articles just from that, then this would be the way to go. If however a researcher wished to find articles from various journals the best way to go would be the previous way--Basic Search.
