Early in your research select a strategy for managing your information. Whether it is via a manual card file, a list of references on a word processor, a computer cardfile or bibliographic formatting software such as Endnote it is vital that full citations be recorded accurately for later use. Everyone has experienced the frustration associated with not being able to locate a known reference when it is needed.
It is also a good idea to be systematic
with your approach to searching, Record your searches and the date they were
done. This makes searches easier to update and reminds you which databases
and sources retrieved useful information and which ones didn't.
