Exactly what is it that you want to find out? If you haven't already done so, formulate a question to help you clarify your ideas and focus your search. If your text is a book, look in the Index and Contents to help locate the information you want. Read headings and sub-headings and skim your text to find the relevant section, being aware of words in italics, colour and bold print.
Once you have located the information you need, note only that. If you are clear about just what you need to know, do not bother to note anything extra. Be sure to note the source of this information.
