The Library and Your Research: Starting Your Literature Review in the Sciences - Kansas State University Events

The Library and Your Research is a free workshop series co-sponsored by the Graduate Student Council that helps graduate students enhance and professionalize their scholarly pursuits.

This session will only be available online via Zoom

Are you preparing a literature review for a paper, article, thesis or dissertation? This workshop will help! Learn why a literature review is important, how to use K-State Libraries' databases to select articles, how to evaluate the articles and how to organize the review. For this session, article searching will be demonstrated using PubMed, Web of Science and other science databases; however, the concepts will be applicable to all disciplines.

Wish it had more on actually writing/organizing a LitReview instead of primarily on how to search for papers... In my opinion, most graduate students already know how to look for papers. I thought it was a good refresher on searching databases, but I would have liked less on that topic and more on other areas of starting a lit review.
