<\/figure>\nYou can use filters to make your search more precise. For instance, in the WU Catalog<\/a>, you have different ways to organize your results list and exclude unwanted hits.

\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\nHow can I use my search results to find more sources?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
You can uncover more sources by using the literature you’ve already found. Just take a look at the references mentioned in the articles or books you’ve found, and you might discover new and useful sources. It’s a way to expand your search and find extra materials that could be helpful for your research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bibliographies<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
If you’ve already found some articles or books that are relevant to your topic, think of them as your starting point. Examine the references mentioned in those sources, and you might find more literature worth checking out. Keep doing this as needed. Just remember, very recent literature may not yet have been cited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Follow an author or journal<\/h3>\n\n\n\n![\"Detailed](\"https:\/\/library.wu.ac.at\/bib\/fit4research\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/katalog_author.png\")
<\/figure>\nIf you want to find more sources on your topic, one good strategy is to follow well-known authors or journals in the field. See if there are leading experts who regularly publish in reputable scientific journals<\/a>. You can subscribe to these journals or use databases<\/a> like Scopus, ResearchGate, or Web of Science to search for specific authors. In the WU Catalog<\/a>, you can also easily check the „Details“ of an article to find more publications by authors whose research you’ve already found relevant to your topic.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\nCitation Trail<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
In CatalogPLUS<\/a>, there’s a neat function that lets you do a two-way search based on an article you already have. This means you can find articles that are mentioned in the references of that article (in its bibliography), and also discover articles that cite the article you’re looking at. It’s a handy way to explore related research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\nTo do this, just click on one of the two red arrow icons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
