I used the Most Specific Facet First search in JStor to find articles about youth participation in public libraries. I chose after-school and extracurricular as my most specific facets. Then, I chose program*, involvement or participation, followed by public librar*, and, finally, youth, young adult, teen or adolescen* as my following next most specific facets. I agree with our textbook readings that this type of search is not novice-friendly. It is difficult to determine which facet of my search is the most specific. As my search continued, my hits became more relevant, so I do deem it a successful search. I found many articles related to my topic.
