Wednesday, April 16, 2025

Scholarly articles can be dense and overwhelming—but we’ll help you break them down!
This workshop will teach you how to navigate academic articles with confidence. Learn how to identify key sections, evaluate peer-reviewed research, and extract the most important information to support your own work.
After this workshop, you will know how to:
- Identify the structure and purpose of academic articles
- Evaluate peer-reviewed research for credibility and relevance
- Read strategically to find key points without getting lost in the details
Psst... Extra credit for library workshop attendance may be available! Ask your professors for more information.
