  • A helpful book for PhD students

    I was looking for a book to help me structure my literature searches so I would have more of a strategy and know where I'd already searched and that I was keeping up with articles as they were published. I found three chapters of this book helpful for that goal. I haven't read the rest of it yet, but I'm already happy with my purchase and recommend this book. I'm nearing the end of my PhD and some reviews made this book sound like it might be for less experienced students. I'm glad I bought it anyway, as the book definitely helped me refine my literature search and organizational approach and I look forward to reading the rest of it. It was an easy read, as well. The information about EndNote would be more helpful to a early career student who is new to reference managers.
