OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
This session is an introduction to effective searching for scientific journals and papers beyond searching with Google, Google Scholar or PubMed. By the end of the session you will:
- Find quality journals and papers using SOLO (the University’s resource discovery tool) and subject databases. – Understand the importance of planning a search and practise standard search techniques and strategies. – Know how to build a successful search in Medline on the Ovid search platform. – Identify cited papers. – Get practical advice for troubleshooting searches.
This event will take place in the Seminar Room at the Radcliffe Science Library, and is aimed at undergraduate medical students.
