From Topic to Full Text - Searching Subject Databases  


Do you have a topic for a term paper / Bachelor's thesis / Master's thesis / research paper etc., and have you not found relevant and appropriate literature yet? Do Google and the SLUB catalogue not deliver the desired hits?
Was your last search confusing and did it take a lot of time?
Have you already searched databases but found too few / too many / irrelevant hits?

If you responded "yes" to any of these questions, this is the right course for you. We will take your literature search to the next level!


This course consists of the e-tutorial (Level 1 and 2) and a virtual seminar (Level 3) of 90 min.  

In the e-tutorial, you will learn about:

 

Level 1 - Preparation:
How to prepare an efficient search and how to choose the appropriate search tools.

 

 

Level 2 - The strategy:

Level 3 - The database: 
Here you can test your knowledge in practice while being supported with tips and tricks by SLUB staff members.
The completion of the e-tutorial is mandatory before attending the virtual seminar.
You can register for the courses via the SLUB calendar of events.
