It’s Tutorial Thursday! In this series, we explore APA’s library of video tutorials available on the APA Publishing Training YouTube channel. Please feel free to link to or embed our videos in your library websites or LibGuides, course management systems, or other locations where students, faculty, and researchers will find them.

A new tutorial, Using APA PsycNet for Complex Searches and Literature Reviews, is now available.

In this 12-minute chaptered video, you’ll learn more about the best search fields to use, how to build and combine each part of a complex search, and finally how to save your search to receive email alerts with newer publications.
