<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><span>Hi all, </span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><span>Next week on 2/21 I'll be leading a discussion on finding, organizing, and reading scientific literature. I'm emailing out ahead of time to encourage folks to come having thought about the answers to the questions
below, particularly question #3, as I'd create a table of likes and dislikes for the different s/w that people use.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><span><br>
</span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><span>1) How do you search for literature: favorite search enginges/databases?</span><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><span><span>2) How do you keep up with reading literature and prioritize your to-read list? (e.g., do you use alerts? follow blogs? utilize social media? etc.</span><br>
</span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><span><span><span>3) How do you manage your literature citations: Reference Manager Software options - pro's and con's of commonly used software. </span><br>
