This guide can help you with a few essential skills:
- Installing Zotero, a free citation management tool, which can help you easily save articles as you find them, and then easily create formatted bibliographies.
- Being able to tell the difference between primary literature and secondary literature (review articles, etc)
- Searching for known articles using Google Scholar, and then using the 'cited by' feature to to track the research conversation forward and backwards in time
- Using subject-specific library databases, from the Finding Articles tab, to search for primary literature related to your research topic
