Notas del editor
- Example in image: if you get the reference, it is far more likely that the little storm troopers will got lots of information telling them about what droids they are not looking for. Google does cope better with typing in a sentence or question than many academic databases, but as professional researchers it is not the best way of searching and you should be trying more appropriate techniques, and many of the databases you may need to, or should be using, will not work very well or at all if you search in this way.
- Finally, this is about using those key sources you locate to work for you:- - providing you with a rich source of pre-selected earlier research from their own list of references - citation searching to see how the ideas and research in the key sources you have identified have been taken and developed further
- - started to be commonly used in mid-20th century, replacing earlier terminology no longer perceived as acceptable. - Now itself perceived as not politically acceptable and being replaced by terms including “intellectual disability”. - Still in use in the United States and by the WHO sometime after the phrase became less commonly used in United Kingdom. - Changes in terminology and spelling especially important when searching historic sources such as newspapers, official publication and pamphlet collections.
- So, if you only searched for “Donut” you are only missing 5.6% of results. But might these be some key articles? And how does this scale if you happened to be searching for “donut” AND “zebra” - (243 results on 14th October 2014) neuropsychology, ornithology, domestic abuse, how our brains work when translating as we read,
- - Many publications have their own terminology and spelling style guide. I can only imagine the panic in newspaper offices around the globe as ISIS/ISIL/IS kept changing their name. Will return to alternative spellings in a minute…
- You do need to check for each database what search tools are available and how to use them… these are just five examples used by some of our key databases which work in roughly the same way.
- At this point, you also need to recognise that each of these ‘concepts’ could be described in multiple ways, be phrased in different ways or cover a broad range of more focussed topics or areas of interest…
- Using various tools we have just mentioned:- Truncation tool Wildcard Phrase searching
- chain growth, condensation reaction, copolymerisation, plastics, synthetics Polymerisation “polymer chains” Polymers
- http://www.flickr.com/photos/26296445@N05/5917135851
- chain growth, condensation reaction, copolymerisation, plastics, synthetics Polymerisation “polymer chains” Polymers
- (Cranial OR head) NEAR/5 (trauma OR injury) AND medieval OR "middle ages"
- You do need to check for each database what search tools are available and how to use them… these are just five examples used by some of our key databases which work in roughly the same way.

- Follow up with mention of access / download statistics from DRO as comparison (and plug for DRO/Open Access sessions).

- Plug ‘Historical Collections’ and ‘Beyond Academic Literature’ sessions
- Additional assistance on subject specific databases from a team of Liaison Librarians
- Check: Show how ConneXions works: use Library Catalogue to look for ‘Catholic Historical review’ Show how doesn’t work with ‘Catholic Biblical Quarterly’
