  12. Writing a Literature Review

  13. Writing a literature review • What is a literature review? • A critical summary of what has been published on a topic • What is already known about the topic • Strengths and weaknesses of previous studies • Often part of the introduction or a section of a research paper, proposal, or thesis • A literature review should • be organized around and related directly to the thesis or research question you are developing • synthesize results into a summary of what is and is not known • identify areas of controversy in the literature • formulate questions that need further research Dena Taylor and Margaret Procter. 2004. The literature review: A few tips on conducting it. http://www.utoronto.ca/writing/litrev.html

  14. Literature review do’s and don’ts • Don’t create a list of article summaries or quotes • Do point out what is most relevant about each article to your paper • Do compare and contrast the articles you review • Do highlight controversies raised or questions left unanswered by the articles you review • Do take a look at some examples of literature reviews or related work sections before you try to create one yourself • For an example, of a literature review in a CS conference paper see section 2 of http://cs1.cs.nyu.edu/~waldman/publius/paper.html
