Description
This session is aimed at UWE Bristol Postgraduate Researchers new to literature searching or who require a refresher.
Working with literatures is an integral part of research. It requires you to be organised in your strategies for seeking out the work of others and also to keep comprehensive records. This workshop, run by the Library research support team, will provide you with tools and techniques to navigate this element of your project.
Please note this online session will provide generic advice on literature searching but is not subject specific. It will include a demonstration of Scopus, an abstract and citation database, and provide an opportunity to construct, and test out, a search strategy.
