Immediacy: "Spend less time on search, more time on research"

September 6, 14:00 IST / 10:30 CEST (duration: 35 minutes)

Researchers need access to information that is current - providing them with a strong competitive base for conducting research.

However, the volume of information available in various platforms, formats and languages is a major obstacle. The constant change in terms of new and upgraded tools also means that the researcher is on a constant learning curve and at times compromises on the time and effort spent on actual research.

In this webinar Sudha Kannan from the Aditya Birla Science & Technology Company will address the needs & obstacles faced in accessing current information in the context of efforts made by information providers like Elsevier to make the process simpler and more user friendly.
