In the previous section, we said that the time invested in clearly defining and delimiting the information we need, why we need it and where we can find it is time well invested and that, very often, it saves time in the process spent searching for and finding information.

In this first phase, we need to ask ourselves questions, such as the amount of information that we would like to find, in which languages we would like to retrieve it, in which formats and, if we feel that our search needs to be mediatised by a search engine, decide what the terms should be that we will be using for the search, ensuring that they are sufficiently representative and provide an adequate definition to identify the information we need.
