Literature Research
Literature research is an essential part of scientific work. Google might be helpful in many situations but is not the ideal tool to search for academic literature available at the library of JLU. In addition to more than 3.7 million books and printed journals as well as a large number of DVDs and other media, these are e-journals, e-books, specialized databases, video tutorials and so on. To find out which is where, check out the research portal JUSTfind. Accessing licenced online media from home will require your user name and password.
In case you have problems with the literature research, do not give up! The library system offers workshops about literature research and management (e.g. with Citavi). You will find the dates on the website of the library in "Courses & Tutorials". Moreover, you are always more than welcome to ask questions directly when studying in the library.
For your self-studies, you can also get information on effective literature research on the ILIAS platform.
