Searching for Literature

Searching for Literature Online

Uncover search techniques to navigate academic databases efficiently. Learn about Boolean operators and tips to develop an effective search strategy to help you find relevant research for your literature review. Sharpen your ability to locate scholarly articles and primary sources effectively, ensuring your research is comprehensive and impactful.

This session is suitable for students undertaking a stand-alone literature review or as part of a wider assignment, such as a dissertation. It would also be useful to students undertaking a dissertation/project proposal module.

This workshop is open to students on any course and the skills discussed will be suitable for all subject areas. If you have very subject specific search queries you may wish to book a 1-2-1 session with a subject librarian.
