Abstract

The need for research workers to be thoroughly familiar with the literature is briefly discussed against the background of the information explosion. Methods of staying abreast of the current literature, as well as information sources and services available to obtain in-depth retrospective literature searches in physiotherapy are described, with emphasis on the major indexing and retrieval sources available in South Africa.
