Tutorial: Following Journals, Authors, and Domains

Dear Scholar,

Most of you have developed a way of finding relevant literature for your work using various tools. However, I never get a clear strategy whenever I ask colleagues how they keep up with the newest research. Word of mouth, occasionally browsing the journal's website, conferences, etc are typical responses. Unfortunately, most of it isn't replicable. So, over the last year, I was developing a set of methods to find the newest research and pool it all together effortlessly. This is the topic of this week's newsletter:

This article discusses how to keep up with new publications from authors (using Google Scholar, social media, and Substack), from domains (using Litmaps Monitoring), or from journals (using Inoreader). The main tool I want to share with you is Inoreader, which allows me to gather new information from all relevant journals, authors' feeds, and newsletters in one location that is accessible on both mobile and desktop. Inoreader is free.

The New EA Community on Circle

As some of you already know, I am transitioning to a new platform for this community: Circle. And it's evolving into a fantastic place! It's gratifying and humbling to see how the first ~300 members have contributed their knowledge, answered each other's queries, and shared their academic backgrounds from universities worldwide.

The community is open to anyone who has previously purchased a course/webinar, so please check your inboxes for an invitation link!

The community is an excellent opportunity to learn new tools, methods, and strategies to thrive as an academic. I will be publishing exclusive new tutorials regularly as well. If you don't want to miss out on this, grab any of the main EA courses (note-taking, lit review, or writing with AI) and join us. Here is a 20% bundle discount link:

Wishing you a wonderful weekend,
