27. Searching tips Combining terms (and, or, not) Database specific vocabulary vs. free text Explosions Truncation Synonyms, variant spellings

28. MEDLINE For most health topics, the top database to use is MEDLINE –MEDLINE is produced by the National Library of Medicine –MEDLINE contains more than 19 million citations from over 4,800 journals –Contains information on all the health sciences fields as well as the basic sciences –There are two main ways to get to MEDLINE Using the Ovid interface - Ovid MEDLINEOvid MEDLINE Using Entrez PubMed - PubMedPubMed

29. MEDLINE (Ovid) www.ohsu.edu/library/ovid/ This is where you get into the Ovid databases. You will then select the database you want to search.

30. Ovid databases

31. Tips for a Better Ovid search Ovid has some unique ways of searching, so it’s best to look at a guide if you want the most effective search It is best to search one database at a time, rather than multiple databases The new interface has a Basic Search tab that has some serious problems, so librarians at OHSU suggest you stay away from it

32. Ovid: using subject headings Let the database look for the indexing terms.

33. Mapping to subject headings

34. Ovid: selecting your subject heading A number of subject heading suggestions for the word “informatics”. Click on the word to see the “Tree Structure”.

35. Ovid: Scope notes Using the Scope note gives you valuable information about the subject heading you are using. Year of entry is especially important.

36. Ovid: the Tree Structure Broader subject The subject More specific subjects

37. Ovid: Explosions Clicking on the “Explode” box will get you not only the articles that have “Communication” as a subject, but also, all the subjects that are more specific. There are 20,368 articles with the subject “Communication”; if you explode, you get 117,210 articles.

38. Ovid: Combining concepts Combine terms to narrow down your retrieval.

39. PubMed Contains MEDLINE and links to a number of other databases Make sure you use the OHSU PubMed link. This version links to the e-journals that OHSU subscribes to PubMed has a great guide available for effective searching –nnlm.gov/nnlm/online/pubmed/pmtri.pdfnnlm.gov/nnlm/online/pubmed/pmtri.pdf

40. PubMed at OHSU Use the OHSU PubMed link to get access to OHSU e-journals

41. PubMed Learn to use PubMed

42. CINAHL (EBSCOhost) A nursing and allied health database Some duplication between MEDLINE and CINAHL Much smaller database than MEDLINE

43. CINAHL CINAHL is searched somewhat differently than Ovid or PubMed

44. Scopus Covers life sciences, health sciences, physical sciences, and social sciences Indexing of nearly 18,000 journals Half of the records go back to 1996 and include citation data; some records go as far back as 1823 Includes all of Medline and most of Embase Includes citing information

46. Citing information

47. Google Scholar: Search scholar.google.com If you’re going to use Google, try Google Scholar. It has information that may not be available in other databases that are available to you.

48. Google Scholar: Results Includes books, articles, Web pages. Has “cited by” Information. But look at the number of hits!

49. Google Warning No matter what the subject is, you will almost always get thousands more citations in Google or Google Scholar than you will in a database that uses a controlled vocabulary, such as Medline or CINAHL.

50. Electronic articles and journals are linked from within databases. Databases may include their own links to full text, as well as the “Find It@OHSU Library” link. 3 different ways to get to the article

51. If we have the article Multiple ways of getting to this article.

52. If the library doesn’t have the journal, you can request the article here. If we don’t have electronic access, the “Find It@OHSU Library” icon will link you to into the catalog to see if we have only the print version of the journal, or if we have the journal at all. Check to see if the journal is available in print.

61. The 15 minute rule If you’ve been searching for 15 minutes and haven’t found what you need, it’s time to ask a librarian.

62. Need help? We realize it can often get confusing. You can always ask for help in finding resources and information –Use the “Ask a Librarian” link on the library’s home page and send a message or use our chat serviceAsk a Librarian –Send a message to refer@ohsu.edurefer@ohsu.edu –Call 503-494-3462 and ask to speak to a reference librarian –Use the “Ask a Librarian” link within Ovid or CINAHL

63. Know when to quit How do you know you’ve covered all your bases? –Continued searching keeps bringing up the same articles –You’ve tried more than one resource –Some of your key articles are highly cited You’ll never find everything!

64. Final thought While using a database, when finished, look for a “log out” or “end session” tab. Many databases have a limited number of user sessions available, and forgetting to log out means the session will be held open for a period of time before someone else can get in.

65. Happy Searching Dolores Zegar Judkins, MLS Head, Instruction, Research & Outreach OHSU Library judkinsd@ohsu.edu
