Webinar “Effective Search Strategies for Researchers. Finding resources on AGORA and other platforms”

21/07/2017

This webinar demonstrates how a well formulated search strategy can facilitate literature search on the AGORA platform via Summon and on other platforms. 

AGORA provides access to peer-reviewed journals, dataseta and e-books in agriculture and related biological, environmental, social and other research domains. AGORA’s main purpose is to improve the quality and effectiveness of agricultural research, education and training in low- and middle-income countries. Summon is AGORA’s Google-like search engine and it is an instant and easy way to find research material from a single search box. It searches AGORA’s catalogue and quickly brings up scores of credible, relevancy-ranked results in full text form.

The slides of the presentation are available on SlideShare.
