Welcome to the KAMK International Business LibGuide!

The purpose of this guide is to showcase useful resources and tools to help students in their research and thesis writing process. The guide focuses on books, journals and databases that have been acquired by the KAMK library but also includes resources on the Internet.

 

Tips for information retrieval

Before you start searching for information in the numerous databases, it is useful to plan your search keywords. Write down which keywords are relevant to your topic and also list possible synonyms. You can utilize different vocabularies in this, for example MOT Dictionaries or Finto.fi

It is also advised to think your topic broadly and not to narrow down your search results too much particularly in the beginning of the information seeking task. If the search parameters are too narrow, many relevant sources might not be found. 

Thesis related information seeking guidance

Information retrieval guidance for students working on their theses

How to complete the information seeking task?

Write a short text in your thesis plan where you describe the information seeking process:

• where you search for information? (name the databases)
• examples of keywords
• what criteria you use to select the sources?

In addition, the task evaluates the references used in the plan. You can return the thesis plan here for evaluation to address: kirjastonopetus(at)kamk.fi. In the workshop you can get guidance on databases you can utilize and other tips for information seeking. Also the Mendeley reference management program will be introduced. 

The best time to participate in an information seeking workshop is at the beginning of the thesis, when the topic is already known. When you sign up for a workshop, please tell us your topic.
