The Library of Science is hosting a presentation on Google Scholar: how can you search more effectively in this search engine? What are the drawbacks? Are there any alternatives? Sign up for this presentation: “Do’s & Don’ts in Google Scholar” on 14 April or 12 May.
Many students and researchers use Google Scholar to find academic articles. It is fast, free, and almost always yields results. But how do you really get the most out of it? What do you do if you get too many results, or can’t find what you’re looking for? And how do you deal with Google Scholar’s limitations, such as limited filtering options and unclear result rankings?
During this presentation, we will show you how to search more effectively and efficiently, what to look for when evaluating results, and which alternative databases you can use for a more comprehensive and reliable overview of the literature. We’ll also provide practical tips you can apply immediately in your own research.
