Keenious

Keenious is a research tool designed to help in the identification and discovery of scholarly articles.

Why use Keenious?

•     Explore and learn new concepts relevant to your research.
•     Find references to specific parts of your assignment.
•     Get a quick overview of available, relevant research on your topic.
•     Assist in cross-disciplinary research.
•     When you suspect there is no existing research on your topic, or it is difficult to find.

Using artificial intelligence combined with conventional search algorithms, Keenious works by analyzing text documents and PDFs to recommend the most relevant articles and topics to explore. Lehigh Libraries' subscription to Keenious allows for seamless integration with our library holdings, unlimited document length of uploaded text, cross language searches, and bulk export of results.

Keenious is available via a web browser for content uploads and text input, and can also be used as an add-on in Google Docs.

Note: If you are a student, you should always check with your instructor about permitted AI use before using a tool such as Keenious for your coursework.
