About this listen

The University of Google. ChatGPT. Twitter pile-ons. How do we manage chaos and crises, confusion and catastrophes? How do we understand the difference between the urgent and important, the trivial and significant?

Information literacy is about as attractive as teeth extraction. However, for PhD students and citizens more generally, information literacy enables us to sift and sort knowledge from opinion, and expertise from a vibe.

Know What You Do Not Know: Information Literacy for PhD Students provides a context around the folk devils of our time: plagiarism, self-plagiarism, influencers and populists. Most importantly, Know What You Do Not Know demonstrates how to take notes, how to reference with clarity, and how to build an opinion into a referenced and considered argument.

I’m a big fan of Tara and subscribe to her podcasts and vodcasts. This audio book is narrated by Tara, is easy to listen to as it’s broken down into bite sized sections and Tara evidences her suggestions with academic research and fun examples from popular culture. Recommend to any student or early career researcher.

I cannot praise this enough.

As a second year PhD student in Mathematics, sure, I found the humanities based parts not particularly relevant, but the encouragement to bring in different literacies transcends this minor point; it's kind of the purpose of the book really.

The author is world-renowned and knows what she is talking about. You're in safe hands if you trust her advice.

Brilliant, useful, and insightful.
