The literature review forms a substantial part of your postgraduate thesis and is also an ongoing process. Through clear examples, individual exercises, and group discussion, this workshop gets you started with your review. You will also receive guidance from the Library's Research Support team to help you with your literature searching.

Please note: This workshop has been adapted from an Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences focus to include all PGRs, so there might be a few discrepancies here and there at this point in time. Please be mindful of that fact and, if possible, provide any feedback to help improve this session for everyone in the future.

By the end of the workshop you will:

• Understand the purpose of the literature review and the process behind it
• Have developed your research questions and identified keywords
• Have discovered the tools available for your literature search and techniques for effective notetaking
