English translation: (additional) literature

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
German term or phrase:weiterführende Literatur
English translation:(additional) literature
Entered by: Benjamin Schmitt

German to English translations [PRO]
Science - Medical (general) / Clinical Evaluation
German term or phrase: weiterführende Literatur
Der Zusammenhang zwischen den genannten Risiken und der resultierenden Fremdkörperreaktion infolge der Netzimplantate ist durch die Guidelines und die ***weiterführende Literatur*** eindeutig belegt.

Hab mir bisher mit "additional literature" beholfen, stößt mir aber noch etwas unangenehm auf der Begriff... Ich suche nach etwas, dass auch als Überschrift im Inhaltsverzeichnis gut klingt, also bitte keine Umformulierungen, wenn möglich ;)

Vielen herzlichen Dank!

(additional) literature
Explanation:
The usual term is simply "the literature", in other words other literature on this subject, so you could ignore "weiterführende".

In your table of contents, I would say "additional literature". "Literature" on its own sounds a bit brusque.

neutral  Cilian O'Tuama: guidelines and (additional) literature? Can't really see that working here.
28 mins
  -> Why not?
neutral  Michael Martin, MA: “Weiterführend" suggests that the additional literature delves further into the topic so we need at least have a passing reference to this, IMO.
3 hrs
  -> I said you could ignore it, not you can ignore it. Subtle difference...
agree  Berit Kostka, PhD: I agree, that is what I have seen during my scientific endeavours. The heading for the contents table would be "References".
5 hrs
agree  Andrea Muller (X): or relevant literature - not exactly the same as weiterführend, but if it is relevant it hopefully takes you somewhere.

agree  Anne Schulz

Literature for further reading


Explanation:
Also makes for a nice heading. See link below:
http://agtr.ilri.cgiar.org/index.php?option=com_content&view...

Perhaps also:

"literature/resources/citations for further exploration of the topic"

"I also use the Feminist Judgments Project frequently in the Family Law undergraduate module, with Wilkinson v Kitzinger forming the basis of a lecture on civil partnerships and a variety of cases, including Evans v Amicus Healthcare Ltd, Re G, Re L, Re N, R (Begum) v Governors of Denbigh High School and Sheffield City Council v E being mentioned in lectures and included in the further reading." http://www.kent.ac.uk/law/fjp/resources/classroom.html
