Information Retrieval Guide

Information Retrieval Process

This guide helps you search for information as efficiently as possible. By presenting different search methods and practices, we aim to guide you in finding scientific information as well. The information retrieval process begins with search terms and continues with the formulation of effective search strategies, all the way to evaluating sources. Inspiration for this guide has been drawn from the University of Oulu Library’s Guide to Scientific Information Retrieval.
