Guidance for literature searches
The University Library has developed a digital resource for systematic and structured literature searches, based on a logical 5-step method.
We have created 3 levels for this resource: bachelor, master, and PhD/researcher. We have included examples from various databases and fields of study, all following our 5-step method for structured and systematic literature searches. In this resource, you will find answers to most questions you might have regarding your literature searches.
Are you a student at bachelor's or master's level? Remember that your supervisorshould be able to provide the help you need to complete your literature searches.
Have you thoroughly gone through our resource for systematic and structured literature searches? Have you discussed any challenges with your literature search with your supervisor? If you still have questions that you cannot find answers to in our resource for systematic and structured literature searches, or with your supervisor, you can request guidance from the university library.
