Your topic
WHY?Research activites and the diffusion of knowledge...● clinical applications● effective legislative policy, standards, laws● economic outcomes, patents● community health/well-being enhanced

WHY? The importance ofscholarly literature
![Page 6: BE Summer 2014](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022070301/5463004fb4af9f531c8b4a4b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Information that already exists on a topic● increased knowledge base● identifies previously conducted work● identifies research methods and results
You understand your topic● history and future research needs● how your work contibutes
● Quantitative - effectiveness, impact of a new procedure● Qualitative - studies and research● Review
● Current information 2010 - present● Retrospective information 5 years? 10 ? 15 ?● Use the past to define the future

Keyword Searching is probably the most common search type, and often is the easiest to feel comfortable doing. This involves specifying words that an electronic database will search for to generate a list of sources that utilize them. Most topics are referenced in several different ways; and a professional Search thesaurus is a great way to find alternate search terms. [INSPEC, PubMed]
Citation Searching is looking for any and all literature that references a particular author or publication. Searching for literature that cites a source you are using lets you know where that particular research led others. This is one way of finding out about current research in a particular area.
Forward Citation Searching is the tracking down of references cited by relevant sources. This means you get to find, and be familiar with, the literature that led to the sources you’re basing your own hypothesis and methodology on. This type of search is sometimes referred to as the “ancestry approach” or footnote chasing.

Research Strategies:· Finding dissertations and mining references;· Finding review articles and research articles;· Using Web of Science tools and connections through
the citations;· Using specific science databases;· Using our WRLC connections for CLS and
ILLmethods to get articles;· Using Google Scholar and settings to
connect to CUA resources;· Using bibliographic citation management
tools –Mendeley, Zotero, EndNote and RefWorks
