But first, accessing
Say: You have the greatest possible access into Ovid Journals, you can open and search the journals directly, you can link to them from database references (from inside Ovid or from other vendors products) or you may browse the journals.

7. Main Search Page in Journals@Ovid (Ovid Advanced)
Say: Here is the main search page, this time for the Advanced Search, since we are using a full-text resource notice that all the author’s words are being searched – including every word of the full-text.

8. Other Searching Modes
Say: Find Citation allows you to find a specific reference.
Search Fields allows you to search any field within all the fields may be searched alone or in combination. No index browsing is available from Search Fields, because Your is a content band (an automatic limit is added to each search within a larger database).
Multifield Search allows you to build searches across many fields and easily create combinations with AND, OR or NOT operators.

9. Basic Search Example
Say: Here is a basic search example, results are relevance ranked by the NLP processes that are part of OvidSP. Note Search Aid on the left which shows the selected subjects from the question and the related terms which have been added by the lexicon.

10. Advanced Ovid Search Example
Say: This is advanced searching within the results are not relevance ranked but ordered with the most recently added at the top of the page. Links on the right of any titles display allow you to move to the full-text or other views.

11. Complete Reference
Say: here we can view all the bibliographic details of a reference, often including the references section.

12. Linking within Ovid
Within any Ovid database, when you subscribe to an Ovid journal, links are automatically inserted to your journals (eg from a database)
Links will appear not just in citations, but also in the references and bibliographies of databases, journals and books (where available)
Say: Ovid Full Text links are automatically inserted into all Ovid databases, and in other areas where references are offered in journals and in books.

13. Searching within Journals@Ovid
Searching for other fields within Journals…
Searching “important words”
Author keywords, Outline headings and Title fields
Searching Caption Text
The words used to describe graphical content – graphs, tables, charts, pictures

Say: all the fields within are completely searchable, including these useful choices, note that you may also limit to journal articles with graphics.

14. Browsing Journals@Ovid
Browsing by Journal Name…
browse alphabetically and choose Issue List
Browsing by Subject…
browse by preset subject (journals may fall into several categories)
Say: as well as being able to search or link to journals, you can also browse. This is where you can see a list of the journals which are available to you, either displayed alphabetically or by subject. The Issue list screen is frequently used as a target for jumpstarts.
