What have I learned?!

Since starting to research unemployment rates I have learned one thing: Research isn't always as easy as it seems!!
 I did use some keywords to narrow my search and I found that Labor and Employment worked pretty well. Rates weren't too useful so I haven't used that keyword as much but I still have a lot of work to do.
I feel like there should be a lot on my topic and there probably is but I didn't find too many. I may just have to look harder. I found one source that cover unemployment since the 1890's. I looked at sources with different point of views. I found one that even focused on employment since 2007. I also am looking at different types of employment which include cyclical and structural employment. I want to find things about unemployment from all kinds of points of view because it's different for everybody.

  1. I'm surprised that there weren't that many sources on unemployment. It may be a matter of using different search terms.
