The second step is to design and carry out your literature search.
This step includes how to:
- Use search techniques to develop your search strategy. Combining search concepts and utilising appropriate search rules to ensure an effective search.
- Putting it into practice: Applying search techniques to your sources.
- Review and refine your search: Revisiting your search to develop it further as you discover more about the topic and existing sources of information.
Remember searching is an iterative process, so you will need to revisit these steps to refine and improve your search.
