Literature reviews: Plan your search strategy

Developing your search skills so you can search the literature effectively is a critical part of any literature review.

Attend this introductory workshop to learn how to:

  • map out a comprehensive search strategy
  • identify relevant databases to search
  • apply your search strategy to a multidisciplinary database taking advantage of key features
  • review and improve your search using valuable techniques

Please note: if you are undertaking a systematic or scoping review you may find that the EDGE sessions in the 'Systematic review' series ('Finding the evidence', 'Finding grey literature' and 'Manage your results') better meet your needs.
