Library Workshop for Students – Writing a Literature Review

Tuesday, February 28, 2012 Add event to Outlook calendar


What is a literature review and how do I write one? A literature review is a justification for doing research and for doing it in a particular way. Participants will explore the purpose of literature reviews in their field, the degree of criticality expected and the relationship to the rest of the dissertation/ thesis or paper. They will also consider features such as finding a voice and taking a stance towards the literature under review.

Presented by Olwyn Alexander, Teaching Fellow, EAP. No need to book. Just come along.

Venue: Edinburgh Campus Library (top floor)
Start Time: 12:15
End Time: 13:15
Organisation: Heriot Watt University Library
