As it has become ubiquitous, social media is a useful source of information, but how do you get the most from it when looking for information?Produced by an NHS Librarian from the North West Ambulance Service NHS Trust and hosted on the NHS Networks site, this short guide looks at using Twitter as a source of reference and for research purposes.
The guide takes you through the different kinds of content you can find on Twitter and the tools you can use to organise your Twitter account and some techniques to make the best of them.
The guide also includes tips of how to best search Twitter to find the information you need, including using the advanced search options.
Finally it also shows you how to cite a Tweet if you need to include it in your bibliography.
