The increasing volume of digital information which has become part of the researcherÕs work is making the task of capturing that information, organizing it and eventually collaborating with others more difficult. Electronic information in multiple formats sitting in multiple silos of data presents another challenge to researchers who often have difficulty finding a specific piece of information in a timely fashion.
Fortunately we now have tools to help students and researchers deal with and thrive in the rivers and oceans of data we are fortunate to find ourselves in.
