A good place to start is with this handout from The Writing Center, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Understand the goals for a literature review.  These are adapted from University of Melbourne Library LibGuide.

In a literature review you will:

• Investigate and evaluate the written scholarship on a specific topic.
• Provide a framework for the research to be conducted.
• Identify gaps in the literature and potentials for further study.
