We have joined another database user training in PSZ, which is the JSTOR Database. The Database is a multidisciplinary database, however, it doesn’t cover the subject of engineering.

Interestingly, the speaker introduced us to the new and exciting function, which is still under beta testing, a feature called ‘text analyser’. What is so exciting about this function?

Firstly, the function of text analyser is when a user read one article and next, he or she would like to find other related articles, all it takes is to upload this article in the Text Analyzer.

Next, if a user needs an automated tool to scan or analyse or get the highlights of an article, the user could upload any document (article or book) into text analyser and it will be analyzed immediately.

Finally, through the text analyzer, of JSTOR, it is most helpful for students when we are in the middle of literature review preparation and for researchers, its assist us to extract the keywords of the articles to write faster and better thesis/ articles.
