This workshop will cover planning and carrying out a literature search, including:

  • where to find information planning your search strategy

We will also cover important elements you need to include in your search methodology.

This session is aimed at supporting Nursing and Midwifery students who are carrying out a literature review, although all School of Health Sciences students are welcome to attend.
