REPORTS AND ARTICLES

FOR MORE INFORMATION ON ISLAM, CONSIDER SEARCHING THE FOLLOWING RESOURCES

There are numerous avenues you can take to identify additional resources on ISIS and/or Islam. 

QUICK NOTE ON SEARCH TERMS:

Searching on the word 'ISIS' alone will also yield information on the ancient Egyptian goddess, ISIS.  To avoid this, combine 'ISIS' with another relevant search term like 'terrorism' or a relevant phrase like "social media".

For example:  ISIS AND terrorism

For example: ISIS AND "social media"

There are many names used to describe ISIS (see box at left).  In addition to searching on the term 'ISIS', consider searching on another name if you're seeking something that specifically refers to one of these other names.  Note: Try enclosing a phrase in quotation marks so it searches as a phrase rather than individual words.

For example: "Islamic State"

Or, consider doing a search that uses two or more variations. 

For example:  ISIS OR "Islamic State"
