19 E-Databases & E-Journals This section will discuss about : o Difference between search engine and academic databases o Famous academic databases and e-journals website o How to search information efficiently o Analysis tools and services provided by databases 19

20 Academic databases & Search engine Search engines : Academic (research) databases: 20

21 Search engine & Academic databases are databases Source of information Search result Data evaluation Search engine collected and indexed information of website in World Wide Web (including online journal) URL link to website or webpage not evaluate the content (user have to determine for trustworthy) Academic databases Indexed from research article in academic journal only Bibliographic record of scholar articles, proceeding, patent, e-books and link to website Most academic journal have peer review. High quality database are not included journal in Beall s list Peer-reviewed = process in which information are reviewed by experts of the topic (was called reviewer or reader) 21

22 Google & Google scholar Both are web search engine but have a different. Google indexed content from all websites. (webpage, social media including online journal. Google scholar indexed only website that contain scholarly contents (such as research article from author personal website, university repository, citation collections and online journal). Journals in Beall s list are not excluded. 22

23 scholar.google.com Link to website (news, information, Ad. etc.) No peer Link to Articles (Journal, repository, patent and citation) No peer (peer depends on resource) Useful for quickly find out full text 23

24 Research database VS Google scholar Research database Google scholar Give bibliography data of article appropriated with keyword Selected journal (have peer) All online journal (Google did no peer) 24

25 Research database VS Google scholar Research database Full text at publisher Have insight data Google scholar Full text at publisher or author s webpage no 25

26 Insight data Summarize data how many articles were published every year Who is the expert in this field 26

27 Insight data Give list of articles that citing this article (related articles) 27

28 PubMed o Medical and health science databases (Medline) o Free database provided by NIH o Can be search for articles from anywhere but access to full text depended on journal 28

29 Refined filter Searched results

30 SCOPUS & ScienceDirect o Multidiscipline databases o Products of Elsevier o ScienceDirect articles and e-books from Elsevier o SCOPUS database indexed peer-reviewed literature from international publishers including patent. o MU subscription since 1960 to present. (top up from 2006 subscribed by Office of Higher Education) 30

31 SCOPUS Guest Elsevier product s user registration o Take benefit for service such as o o o Registered user Save search keyword for later used. Mail alert Remote access (directly access to SCOPUS, ScienceDirect outside MU network, have to register with with MU address 31

32 SCOPUS Example : Survey for any research about developing vaccine again Zika virus by Thai researcher First step find keyword Zika virus main keyword Vaccine sub keyword Thailand 32

33 SCOPUS Test 1 : Keyword = zika virus Result 5,851 articles See detail in the article Present and future arboviral threats Does it involve with Zika virus? 33

34 SCOPUS From Present and future arboviral threats Only virus in abstract and zika in indexed keyword field 34

35 SCOPUS Test 2 : Keyword = zika virus Result 5,448 articles What is different between Zika virus and zika virus 35

36 Searching principle (1) 1. Use _ cover keyword as Phrase search Zika virus = xxxx xxxxx xxx zika xxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx virus xxxx xxxxx xxx zika virus xxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx zika virus = xxxx xxxxx xxx zika virus xxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx 2. Wild card character? = represent any one character m?n = man, men tumo?r = tumor (US) / tumour (GB) colo?r = color(us) / colour (GB) * = represent any characters vaccin* = vaccine / vaccines / vaccination / vaccinated 36

37 Searching principle (2) 3. Boolean operator AND = need only those contain all keywords OR = contain any keyword NOT = result without keyword Ex. Zika virus = zika AND virus (have both zika AND virus in any position *** modern database automatically add operator AND if there are more than 1 word together, so AND is no need now *** To search vaccine and immun response against zika virus zika virus AND (vaccine OR immune response ) = zika virus AND vaccine + zika virus AND immune response together 37

38 Searching principle (3) 4. Advanced search to indicate specific data field make search results more specified Are there report of developing vaccine of zika virus by Thai researcher Ex. Zika virus vaccine thailand 38

39 Searching principle (4) Is it right? 39

40 Searching principle (5) There is one Thai author (Institute for Population and Social Research, MU) It seem to be correct answer but it was not! 40

41 Searching principle (6) zika virus AND vaccine AND Thailand mean Looking for articles that have wording zika virus and vaccine and Thailand in any position of article title or abstract or keywords 41

42 Searching principle (7) affiliation = Thailand means author work in Thailand 42

43 Searching principle (8) There are many data fields can be used to specified searching and limitation 43

44 Sub keyword same as using AND Go to full text article Filter (limit to or exclude) 44

45 Select any article make icon active Download multiple PDF at the same time. Download manager need Java, so it s not working in Chrome Make bibliography of selected articles printer, or text 45

46 Registered user can save search key for later used and make mail alert Make alert Save search 46

47 SCOPUS mail alert Setup alert condition Sample of mail alert 47

48 ISI Web of Knowledge o Multidisciplinary o Contain 2 major databases Web of Science + Incites Journal Citation Report (Journal Impact factor) o Information since

49 ISI Web of Knowledge How many articles about zika virus vaccine published by Thai researcher 49

50 ISI Web of Knowledge Method 1 : use keyword with Boolean operator zika virus (topic) AND vaccine (topic) AND Thailand (address) 50

51 ISI Web of Knowledge 2 3 Method 2 : use refine function Step 1 = zika virus (topic) Step 2 = vaccine (in refine box) Step 3 = refine Country : Thailand (address) 51

52 Compare SCOPUS and Web of Science Test keyword SCOPUS WoS Zika virus 1,404 1,035 Zika virus 1, "zika virus" AND vaccine "zika virus" W/10 vaccine "zika virus" NEAR/10 vaccine "zika virus" AND vaccine AND Thailand [Address] Analysis of duplication of "zika virus" AND vaccine Between SCOPUS & WoS SCOPUS WoS 52

53 Other major databases PubMed o o SciFinder o o o Free database Medline for medical and health science Chemical abstract for chemistry and other discipline that involve with chemical substance Give literature (research articles and patents) and properties of selective chemical substance (physical-chemical properties, spectra, commercial sources) Need personal account (register with MU address only) 53
