Doctoral student: AI and social tools for staying up-to-date with the literature

Wednesday 20 November, at 11:15 - 12:00

Much of a researcher’s ongoing information seeking concerns staying up to date with new literature.

About the event

In this lecture we will look at how you can use AI tools and social networks to identify and track important authors and key publications as well as to explore if a publication is worth reading. We will provide a background to how the tools work and how you can fit them into your workflow.

  • AI tools for searching literature in natural language
  • Literature mapping tools, e.g. Research Rabbit or SciSpace
  • Academic social networks
  • AI tools for skimming, summarizing and conversing with texts

The Social Sciences Libraries offer a lecture and a subsequent workshop (11/12) for doctoral students who are starting up their studies or have come a bit on the way.

Arrangement

If you want to participate in the workshop, you need to attend the lecture first, but it is possible to attend the lecture only. Registration for the lecture is appreciated but not mandatory. The lecture has a focus on disciplines at the Faculties of Education, IT, Social Science and the School of Business, Economics and Law.
