GradShare, an online graduate school support community developed by ProQuest, has launched GradShare Blogs to provide students with often-sought, but difficult-to-find guidance concerning postgraduate education. Since its launch in February 2009, GradShare has provided students with forums containing hundreds of discussions on numerous challenges. The new GradShare Blogs seek to offer the graduate student community an additional resource to further enrich their educational experience.
The GradShare Blogs are available for free and give insight on various topics relevant to all graduate students, across institutions and subjects. This includes advice on the best research tools, stories from schools around the academe and analysis of the current news affecting graduate students. Bloggers include popular authors, graduate student leaders, and everyday students.
GradShare provides students with the information and support they need to be successful in graduate school. This free community connects students from schools throughout the US and Canada to share their experience with researching, teaching, writing, and balancing school with all of their other commitments. Universities use GradShare to recommend local resources in-context, bringing their extensive campus services to the social web.
