23 Main features

24 Example:

25 Login to the HINARI website by clicking on LOGIN. Note: If you do not login into HINARI, you will not get access to the full text articles.

26 We will need to enter our HINARI User Name and Password in the appropriate boxes, then click on the Login button. To have access to the full text articles, you must properly sign in. If you do not use the Internet Explorer Web browser, this slide will be all you see (as of 01 April 2014). If you use Internet Explorer, you will continue to have a two-step login process.

27 If you are using Internet Explorer, repeat the Login process on this 2 nd page and you will be redirected to the HINARI Contents page.

28 Once logged-in, you will be taken into the Access the content sub-page of the website. Note the Logged in from: Test Account message. That line will list your country. This proper login also can be confirmed by the hinarilogin.research4life.org/... url

29 Journals can be accessed by title from an alphabetical list. For this exercise, click on C from the A-Z list. Note: there also is a View complete list of journals option although this list does not have hypertext links to the journals.

30 We have displayed the C journal list. The default is the Accessible Content page. Click on the title for Canadian Geotechnical Journal. The green box notes access to the contents of the journal for you while the! Notes specific journals that are titles not included in publishers offer to your institution. Note that the years of volumes available are listed after the journal title.

31 Another window will open at the journal publisher s website usually with access to the online issues.

32 In this example, we opened the Browse Subject Entomology/Pest Control listing (without the proper login) and clicked on the All Items option. Of the initial17 journals titles listed, only 3 are Full access to this content for everyone while there are 14 that are not accessible You must log in to access AGORA to have full access to this content.

33 To find books by title, click on the appropriate Books collection alphabetical letter. Note that there is a View complete list of books option although this page does not have hypertext links to the specific titles. You will need to go back to the Books collection A-Z list to open any e-books.

34 We have opened the American Psychiatric Association Textbook of Geriatric Psychiatry e-book that is searchable by keyword and broad subject categories.

35 From the HINARI Content page, you also can open the Search inside HINARI full-text through database and article searching, Reference sources and Free collections lists. Note: Many of these resources are underutilized by HINARI users as most individuals concentrate on obtaining full-text journal articles.

36 Via clicking on the Database and article searching link, we have opened the Browse databases A-Z list. Similar to other access points, there are the Accessible Content and All Items listings that depend on the Publishers exclusions.

37 CINAHL (EBSCO) is one of the resources from the Databases and (Bibliographic) Indexes menu. It provides indexing for 2,960 journals and can be searched for information on nursing, biomedicine, health sciences librarianship, alternative/ complementary medicine, consumer health and 17 allied health disciplines. Via HINARI, many of these journals can be accessed.

38 Now we have clicked on the Reference Sources link and opened the Browse reference sources A-Z list. Many of these resources contain fulltext information on a variety of topics.

39 Cochrane Library contains high quality, independent evidence for health care decision making. It includes numerous access options including via keyword, MeSH terms and category listings. Cochrane Library is one of 3 sources of information on evidence-based practice in HINARI.

40 The final Reference Sources resource we will look at is the EndNoteWeb (Thomson Scientific). It is a reference management software package used to manage bibliographies and references when writing essays and articles. This is invaluable for researchers and post-graduate students.

41 Once you are logged in to the HINARI Content page, access PubMed by clicking on Search inside HINARI full-text using PubMed.

42 Remember 1. Ask: What health problems are associated with water pollution? 2. Need: scholarly primary research 3. Main Concepts: health, water, pollution 4. Select terms: Broader terms: health, environmental degradation, agricultural management, Synonyms: health, illness, disease, etc. water, rivers, lakes, sea, domestic water, etc. pollution, oil spills, chemical, biological, toxicity, etc Alternative spellings: none Plurals: river(s), lake(s), disease(s) Capitals: e.g. name of a specific lake, disease, region

43 Remember to access PubMed you can use the limiters.

44 Results of the search are displayed in the main body of the page in Summary Format, 20 Items per Page and Recently Added Sort by options. This is the default setting when you complete a search. Note the two additional filters for Free Full Text and HINARI articles. These have been created in the HINARI/PubMed searches saved in My NCBI (see module 4.5). Of the 5009 articles, 2275 are available via the HINARI filter and 2128 with Free full text filter ( there are some overlaps).

45 Note the additional hypertext link for Free article. By clicking on this link, you will be re-directed to the Abstract display and be able to access the full text. Also note the bolded terms of the search malaria, infections and Africa and the Search details box.

46 We now will set the Display Settings drop down menu for the Abstract Format, 20 Items per Page and Recently Added Sort by options. To activate these options, you will click on the Apply box.

47 After clicking on the HINARI or Publisher s icon in the Abstract display, a list of all the HINARI articles appears with the HINARI and publisher s icons. By clicking on the HINARI icon or the publisher s icon, the fulltext article will display. The Free Full Text filter will work in the same way. Note that some articles will have both the HINARI and Free Full Text icons in the Abstract display.

48 From the Send To drop down menu, we will be able to select the File, Collections, Order, Clipboard, and other options.

49 You must place check marks in the boxes to the left of the citations that you wish to send to File, Collections, Order, Clipboard and options. If you do not place check marks in the boxes, the entire search will be sent to the option you choose.

50 From the Send To drop down menu, we have selected to a file, with the Abstract and Relevance options. This will be a document to be sent to the address you entered as the recipient.

51 PubMed Filters From the initial (HINARI) PubMed page, we will run the HIV and pregnancy search and then apply various Filters. Note the Advanced search and Help options.

52 After completion of a search, the default Filters are displayed in a left-column frame. We will apply different Filters to the results of the HIV and pregnancy search - a total of citations.

53 Initially we will apply the Publication dates filter. We have clicked on the 5 years option. This limits the search results to Note the check mark next to Publication Dates section. Also note clear icon. There is a Clear all option at the bottom of the page. If you do not clear your options, they will be applied to future searches.

54 In the Specify Custom Date Range filter, we have entered the first date of 2014 range to date (2014/01/01 to blank) and clicked on the Apply icon.

55 By using a Specify Custom Date Range filter, we have 286 citations for HIV AND pregnancy search. Below the results, there is the Filters activated line that includes the Clear all option. The specific Filters Activated is noted with a check mark. We will click on the Clear option to remove this. You also can click on the specific filter.

56 Displayed is the drop down menu for Languages filters. Note that English is the default language and more than one can be checked.

57 To register, add filters and use the MY NCBI options, you must directly access PubMed using the following address: From the PubMed display, you will see the MY NCBI/Sign in box. Click on this MY NCBI box to Register.

58 You will be directed to the MY NCBI Sign In page. To register for MY NCBI, click on the Register for an account link. If you are already registered, you can click on Sign in to NCBI. Note that you can link your Sign to your Google (gmail) account.

59 In PubMed, these are the results for the search for HIV AND pregnancy. Click on the Save search hyperlink that is available when you are signed into your MY NCBI account.

60 My NCBI has confirmed that this search was saved. You now have the option to receive updates or not receive updates (about the new articles published on this search topic). In this case, the updates options chosen are: Yes, please Monthly on the first Monday in the Abstract format (vs. text or MEDLINE) and receive 50 items. Select the options you want and click on the Save button.

61 Why Search Strategy is Important? Health care includes the provision of information to consumers or professionals (reliable, accurate, up-todate) Information explosion- billions of documents in the WWW; hard to find the needle in the hay stack and know which source is best for a specific situation; Evidence-Based Medicine - clinicians are not using enough evidence in practice Systematic search strategy should be adopted when dealing with clinical questions to avoid information malpractice

62 R4L makes use of: Boolean Operators, Wild cards Truncation, Phrase searching, Proximity searching.

63 AND Operator (to combine two concepts and narrow a search) the AND operator is used to combine two concepts e.g. hip AND fracture in the shaded area; retrieves items containing all the search terms

64 OR Operator (info containing one or other term; will broaden a search) renal OR kidney in the shaded area with the overlap in the middle having both search terms; retrieves items containing either search term or both search terms

65 Africa AND (HIV OR tuberculosis) HIV tuberculosis Africa Africa AND (HIV or tuberculosis) in the shaded area The (OR) operator retains items in each term and the AND operator is used to combine two concepts

66 Other functions Phrase or proximity searching: or ( ) allows you to search for an exact phrase information literacy prevention and (malaria parasite) Truncation/wildcards: * or $ allow you to search alternative spellings child* for child OR childs OR children parasite* for parasite OR parasites Alternate spellings:? can be used to substitute for characters anywhere in a word wom?n would search for woman and women

67 Summon Access Summon from the Search inside AGORA fulltext through database and article searching list

68 Summon notes that AGORA is the client. This means there will be access to full-text articles. The default page is the Basic Search display. We will enter selenium and sulfur accumulation in the search box and click on Search. Note the other option Advanced Search

69 You have more than 7000 results. Note also that you can filter your results. This is the results screen with further links on to fulltext. Click on the American Journal of Botany article title.
