WISER : Biosciences Reference Management Roger Mills & Juliet Ralph February 2009

This session formulating a research query selecting and searching appropriate databases exporting to reference management software inserting references in a document compiling a bibliography.

The research query Suppose we are interested in the clutch size (number of eggs laid) of the barn swallow, Hirundo rustica. What are the key concepts? What search terms to use? How to combine them?

Sample search Start with barn swallow* – * is a truncation symbol and will retrieve both barn swallow and barn swallows. Then search for hirundo rustica. Combine the two sets using OR. Do another keyword search for clutch size. Combine this set with the barn swallow* OR hirundo rustica set using AND

Selecting a database OxLIP+ (Oxford Libraries Information Platform) Search for database name Or by Subject, e.g. Biological Sciences, Medical Sciences Remote access –Oxford University Single sign-on (SSO)

B iosciences databases BIOSIS (biology, biochemistry, experimental & pre-clinical medicine)BIOSIS (biology, biochemistry, experimental & pre-clinical medicine) CAB Abstracts (agriculture & forestry)CAB Abstracts (agriculture & forestry) Embase (the “European Medline”)Embase (the “European Medline”) Medline (medicine)Medline (medicine) PsycINFO (psychology)PsycINFO (psychology) Zoological Record (zoology)Zoological Record (zoology)Also Scopus (science & medicine)Scopus (science & medicine) Web of Science (Science Citation Index)Web of Science (Science Citation Index)

What can reference management software do?
