What is ResearchRabbit? | Webrarian Episode 03

Ever felt like you were drowning in a sea of browser tabs while trying to do research? You find one great academic paper, but then fall down a confusing "rabbit hole" trying to find related work, leaving you more lost than when you started. What if you could turn that chaos into a clear, visual map of discovery?

Welcome to Webrarian, the Libcast series on digital tools! In this 7-minute episode, we introduce you to your new best friend in research: ResearchRabbit.

Think of it as Spotify, but for academic papers. We'll explain how this powerful (and free!) app works as a "recommendation engine" for science and scholarship. Learn how to use "seed papers" to instantly generate collections of similar articles, trace research backward to its foundational studies, and leap forward to see who is citing your sources right now.

Join us as we explore how ResearchRabbit’s interactive, visual networks can save you countless hours, help you uncover hidden gems you’d never find with a simple keyword search, and even automatically alert you to new publications in your field. This is one rabbit hole you'll be excited to jump into!
