Methods for Scouring Primary Literature Anonymous Mon Jun 22 16:02:53 2015 No.7346792 [Reply] [Original]

How do you cut through the bog of primary literature to find information relevant to your field or research focus? I bookmark the journals which are not paywalled parasite fuckwads and skim through their indexes for relevant titles. I also use Frontiers (a massive and high quality free access publisher) which does a good job of breaking papers down to specific research categories. Still, I feel my method could be way more efficient. Are there any other resources I should be using. Also general primary literature thread.
