When doing pagan and/or magical topics in libraries:
- ancient/historial vs modern
- wicca vs witchcraft (wicca wasn’t an official library term until 2007)
- subject headings in the library systems can be applied differently
Think of books LIKE what you want to search for and see what

Research while dealing with memory loss / brain fog
- sort things so you don’t have to remember much to find them later
- figure out what memory triggers are most likely to work for you
- make it easy to remember what you’re working on, keep it in front of you
- when taking notes have a reminder of what you’re LOOKING FOR
- what helps you focus? (music, sounds, temp, setup)
- when you get tired, lay down/rest for 20 mins, don’t push through
- figure out the minimum you need if you can come back and flesh out later
