Tools for Literature Search and Review LO1: apply advanced tools in searching and reviewing related literature Boolean operators are words used to connect two or more phrases in a search query in order to get more precise results. Common boolean operators include AND, OR, and NOT. For example, if you search for "cats AND dogs" using a boolean operator, your search results will include articles about both cats and dogs. On the other hand, if you search for "cats OR dogs" using a boolean operator, your search results will include articles about either cats or dogs. Online Search: Search Engine www.google.com Basic Search  Space or + Use the space or plus operator (+) when you want search results to display hits that include the specified words Example: medical+technology medical technology Display results that have the words medical and technology – in any order  OR (either this or that) Use the OR operator or the symbol ‘|’ when you want search results to display hits that include any of these words from the list Examples: microbiology OR hematology microbiology OR hematology OR pathology Results have either the word microbiology or hematology. Results have either the words microbiology or hematology.  Minus (-) Use the minus operator (-) when you want to exclude a unimportant word from you search results. Example: biochemistry -pathology Results include biochemistry but do not include or minimize the occurrence of pathology  “Quotation marks” Use the quotation marks operator when you want to search for an exact phrase in a certain order. Example: “American Chemical Society” Results include only hits that have the exact phrase, American Chemical Society.  The power of the asterisk (*) Use the asterisk operator (*) when you want to search results to substitute characters in place of the asterisk. Example: American * Society Results include words that begins with American and end in Society but has anything between the two words  site: Use this operator (site:) to search topics from a specific website Example: microbiology site:sciencedirect.com Results include topics about microbiology only found in sciencedirect.com  Using a range (#..#) Use (..) with numbers on either side to match on any integer in that range of numbers. Example: Scientific discoveries 1900..2000 Results include scientific discoveries during the 20th century. Online Search: Search Engine www.google.com Advanced Search  filetype: Use this operator (filetype:) to search materials with specific file format Example: microbiology filetype:pdf Results include only pdf files about microbiology  related: If there is something you really like online and want to find similar websites, type in “related:” and then the address of the site, again without a space between them. Example: related:sciencedirect.com Results will give you sites of BioMedCentral, JSTOR, Elsevier, etc.  intitle: Search only in the page's title for a word or phrase. Use exact-match (quotes) for phrases. Example: intitle:”microbiology vs biochemistry” Results include only titles with microbiology vs biochemistry allintitle:  inurl: Search for pages on a site that has your targeted search term in the URL and the second term is a content on a website. This is useful for finding sites with strong on-page optimization for the topics you are researching. Example: inurl:2016 "microbiology biochemistry" Results include URLs with the year 2016 and the contents microbiology and biochemistry allinurl:  intext: Search for a word or phrase (in quotes), but only in the body/document text. Example: intext:"microbiology vs biochemistry" Results include contents with microbiology vs biochemistry allintext:  AROUND(X) Returns results where the two terms/phrases are within (X) words of each other. Example: microbiology AROUND(3) biochemistry Results include microbiology and biochemistry close to each other in three words on a page Digital Repositories Online Databases  Digital Repository A digital storage system used to store, manage, and preserve digital content such as documents, images, and other digital resources. Digital repositories enable the access and retrieval of digital content, as well as allow users to securely store, manage, and share digital content with others. Provide users with effective search and retrieval capabilities, as well as a secure system for the storage and manipulation of digital content. Commonly used in libraries, archives, and other institutions for the preservation and dissemination of digital content. Digital Repository Digital Repository 1.

It is an electronic database that replaced the card catalog, which provides bibliographic information such as titles, authors, subject headings, and descriptions from a library's collection.

They are often the main point of contact for library users and the collection and can help users find materials quickly. OPAC Caution: to be critically evaluated – Beall’s List of Predatory conferences, journals & publishers https://beallslist.weebly.com/  Predatory conferences or predatory meetings are meetings set up to appear as legitimate scientific conferences but which are exploitative as they do not provide proper editorial control over presentations, and advertising can include claims of involvement of prominent academics who are, in fact, uninvolved. They are an expansion of the predatory publishing business model, which involves the creation of academic publications built around an exploitative business model that generally involves charging publication fees to authors without providing the editorial and publishing services associated with legitimate journals.
