What is an e-resource?
• Sources of information that are stored on the Internet
• Examples:
– E-books
– E-journals
What is a journal?
A journal is a collection of articles containing reports of current
research. They are focused on a particular subject, e.g. Journal of
Marketing or Harvard Business Review, and they are published
regularly e.g. weekly, monthly or yearly.
Why use e-resources?
• Up-to-date information
• Short but detailed
• Focus on specific topics
• Peer-review
• You will be expected to use e-resources in your assignments
What is peer-review?
When an article has been evaluated and reviewed by other experts
and academics to make sure it is of a good academic standard.
Where do you find e-resources?
• Academic e-resources are very expensive
• You can’t access them for free on the Internet
• UEA subscribes to them and you access them through the UEA Library
website
Task 1: Find an E-Book
• Go to the UEA library catalogue Primo OneSearch by selecting
‘Search the Library’ from the library homepage
http://www.uea.ac.uk/is/lib
• Search for an e-book related to your subject’
• Refine Your Result’ to ‘E-book’
• Click on ‘Online Resource’ to access the e-book
See the LRC Helpsheet ‘Finding E-books’ for more information
Task 2: Find an e-journal
• Go to Primo OneSearch
• Select ‘E-journals A-Z’
• Search for Harvard Business Review
• Open the journal and find the latest available issue
Task 3: Search individual databases
• Go to Primo OneSearch
• Select ‘Find Databases’
• Use the ‘Category’ and ‘Sub-category’ options to see a list of
recommended databases for your subject area
• Open one of the databases
• Find an article related to your subject area and open it
Choosing keywords
• What are the key concepts of your assignment title?
– Assignment:
Q: What is the impact of marketing junk-food to teenagers using
social media?
A: junk-food, marketing, social media, teenagers
• What alternative keywords do you need to use?
– Synonyms, related words, plurals, other spellings, abbreviations,
acronyms, broader and narrower terms
– Background reading, thesauri, encyclopaedia
– Make a list or mind map

Advertise Twitter Teen
Fast-foods Advertize Weibo Young adult

Search techniques
• Wildcard truncators:
– ? is used to replace a letter in a keyword when it has multiple
spellings
– * is used to search for keywords with multiple endings
globali?ation SEARCH Will give results about globalisation
and globalization
librar* SEARCH
Will give results about library, libraries,
Librarian, Librarians and librarianship
Search techniques
• Phrase searching:
This will only give you results where the two words are next to each other
“global warming” SEARCH
Boolean Operators
• Boolean Operators are used to link keywords together:
– AND
– OR
– NOT
Putting it all together
Junk-food Market* “Social media” Teen*
Fast-food AND Advert* AND Facebook AND “Young person”
OR OR OR OR
“Convenience
food”
Promot* Twitter “Young adult”
OR OR OR OR
Fast-foods Sell* Weibo Adolescent*

promot* OR sell*) AND (“social media” OR facebook OR twitter OR weibo OR
“Web 2.0) AND (teen* OR “young adult” OR adolescent* OR “young person”)
Task 4: Keywords and search techniques
• Go to Primo OneSearch
