With the help of the Savvy Researcher, you've tamed your unruly
citations and are well on your way to being a research whiz. But
something is still missing. What about all of those notes, snippets,
bookmarks, drafts, files, and other miscellany that pile up in the
course of a semester or a large project? How do you keep track of
them, and put them to use efficiently in your work?  In this session
you will learn about:

  • Strategies to manage, organize, and access your digital documents and annotations across multiple technological platforms and physical locations.
  • Tools to put those strategies into practice, such as Dropbox, EverNote, and Delicious.
  • Ways to make those tools work together to get the most out of your research and resources.
