Welcome!

Welcome! By the end of this class, I hope you'll:

  • Be able to create effective search strings for use in database searching;
  • Have a working knowledge of PubMed (and Web of Science if time allows);
  • Understand the different types of literature reviews;
  • Find citations in databases and UC Library Search for articles in any citation format; and
  • Check any found citations in any format for accuracy and make necessary corrections.
