Get more out of Intute...

...with the advanced search options. And don't be put off by the word 'advanced' - it's actually a quicker and easier way of finding high-quality websites for your research and general reading. For example, make your way to Intute - Psychology and click on 'advanced search'. From the advanced search screen, scroll down to 'resource type', deselect 'all resource types' and select 'blogs'. Enter your search (e.g. 'psychology') and click the green search button. This particular example should bring up over 30 blogs dedicated to different fields of psychology.

Other resource types you can choose from include...
  • archives
  • bibliographic databases
  • government publications
  • mailing lists and discussion groups
  • news
  • professional organisations
  • reference sources
  • statistics
...to name but a few. Go on, give it a go!
