The Schwerdtfeger Library will offer two workshops in
September for AOS graduate students titled “Finding information in the
Atmospheric, Oceanic, and Climate Sciences: A Historical Perspective.”
Starting with a sample search, these workshops will review
the basics of compiling a literature review in the atmospheric, oceanic, and
climate sciences with a special focus on historical sources of information. Attendees will learn how to make the most of useful tools like citation searches in Web
of Science and Meteorological Abstracts, define your research problem, and
utilize citation managers.
Since the librarians at Schwerdtfeger specialize in
atmospheric and climate studies as well as remote sensing, these tailored
workshops are advantageous for dissertators and graduate students with focused
research needs.
The workshops will be held on Friday, September 11 and
Friday, September 18th from 1:30-2:30 in room 823 of the Atmospheric, Oceanic
and Space Sciences Building. Students can attend either workshop.
