Basics of information searching

Current awareness

While writing your report, you must also make sure to check constantly for the latest information. This kind of research is called "current awareness". Current awareness allows you to be up to date on the latest trends related to your research theme.

Some databases provide services that send you mail alerts containing information about newly registered resources that match a search formula you register in advance. Be sure to take advantage of such functions to keep your information up to date.
