What might have been a "good enough" search for resources when you were an undergraduate, may not cut it as a graduate student: you will need to dig deeper and expand your universe, be better organized and more analytical. The resources discussed on this course site should help.

Broaden your horizons:

• go beyond our own library's collection: U of O, reciprocal borrowing, WorldCat,  RACER (Interlibrary Loans)
• delve into new types of material: find theses, conference proceedings

Dig deeper:

• improve your searches by using thesauri and subject terms, following citation trails

Organize & analyze

• Citation managment tools: Mendeley, Zotero
• NVivo: qualitative data analysis
• Writing help, e.g. for literature reviews
