Library Research FAQ

Still OneSearch

This search includes all of the Library’s journal articles, e-books, most subscribed research databases and indexes, the vast public biomedical literature index Medline, and the overall largest number of resources. You can click an arrow at the bottom to expand a subject limiters menu, or you can add limits for full-text or peer review from the results screen. You will find many results that are not full-text, but you can still get them – see the Interlibrary Loan entry on this page for directions.

Start here for most research, in any subject.

UpToDate, DynaMed, Rehabilitation Reference Center 

This search includes three of the Library’s core clinical point of care resources. More are available on the Databases A-Z List or from the Databases Help tab, but these three can answer many clinical questions.

Start here for clinical questions or research.

PubMed

This search includes PubMed, the premier biomedical research database in the world, with the addition of all of ATSU’s subscribed journals that are included. You can search PubMed freely anywhere (and will be able to do so after you graduate), but if you start here, you can include all of the full-text journals that ATSU provides. You will find many results that are not full-text, but you can still get them – see below for directions. 

Start here for medical research questions.

e-Books

This tab searches the Library Catalog. At present, it searches the entire Library Catalog, but it will soon be pre-limited to ATSU's e-books.

Start here to find e-books.

If you know the book’s title, try searching for it in the Library Catalog, which is linked in the top left menu of the Library homepage.

• To access an e-book, click on the link below the book information that says A.T. Still: Click to access.
• To find a print book, visit the listed Library or request assistance if it is listed as in storage

Search straight from the Library homepage using the e-Books tab of the search box:

Search straight from the Library homepage using Still OneSearch box by:

• Run your search using the Still OneSearch box
• Check the e-books limit on the left-side menu to limit results to e-books

Special e-Book Issues

• The Library has e-books from multiple publishers and sources, which means that they do not all look the same. See the e-Book Help page for more information about using a specific e-book or publisher.

• Some e-books allow one person to use them at a time, some allow a few, and some allow the entire university.
• If too many people try to use an e-book at once, the newest person will not be able to access until one of the others finishes and closes their browser. Please close e-books as soon as you are finished to be courteous to your peers. If you cannot get into an e-book, try again in half-an-hour. If you want to know how many users a particular book allows, check its catalog record or Ask Cyberlibrarian.

Special Print Book Issues

• The majority of the print books are housed in the Missouri Library. If you are in Arizona and wish to use a print book that appears in your search results, you can get it quickly through Interlibrary Loan.

What if we do not have it?

If we do not have an e-book or print book and you want to use it, you may:

• Request that the Library purchase it at cyberlibrarian@atsu.edu or hbright@atsu.edu
• Request a print book via Interlibrary Loan at no charge (Kirksville or Mesa campuses only)

Click on the Browse eJournals link, which you can find linked below the Search button on the Library's Still OneSearch box or in the Discovery Tools box on the Homepage.

• The BrowZine Library tool will open
• Search for the journal title
  • Do not search for or include the article title
• Browse by year and issue number to find your desired article

If The Library does not have the journal article you need in full-text, you can ask us to order it for free through Interlibrary Loan. This typically takes 1-3 business days.

The Library provides access to BrowZine, which is a mobile app/web resource that will let you create a personal ID to save journal titles of interest and monitor them for new articles. It will show a count of all new available issues and articles, as well as let you download articles, e-mail them, send them to other app programs or citation managers, etc.

See the BrowZine guide for more information about how to use it.

Visit the Journal List provided by BrowZine to browse lists of full-text journals by subject.

Note : Some available journals are not included in the subject browse lists. You can still find these journals by searching for them within BrowZine, as described above.

Collection of dissertation and thesis abstracts from the US and other countries ranging from 1743 to the present day. Includes nearly all US produced dissertations since 1997 in downloadable full-text.

• Click on the Full Text - PDF link to read or download the dissertation if available - you do not need to purchase it

It is less likely to be possible to get a dissertation through Interlibrary Loan than any other type of resource, but it is worth trying if you want one that is not available full-text.  

• If all that you want is the literature review, or bibliography, make sure to include this in your interlibrary loan request - it is more often possible to get this even if not the entire dissertation

Useful keywords for searching for instruments in Article Databases

• Look for articles researching your topic using your preferred type of measure - what did other people do to study this question?

assessment, instrument, survey, measure, measurement, inventory, test, questionnaire, validity, reliability, psychological tests, health assessment, [specific instrument name], etc.

Sometimes you cannot find an instrument that already exists. Consult these resources to create a new one:

• Encyclopedia of Survey Research Methods
• Quantitative Health Research : Issues & Methods
• Fundamentals of Qualitative Research
• The Sage Handbook of Interview Research
• More e-Book References

1. Click on the Databases link on the Library's Homepage.
2. Limit the Databases A-Z index by Purpose to Clinical-Point-of-Care.
3. To narrow the list of Clinical Resources by subject, select your preferred subject area. For Example: 
   • Find subscription point of care or clinical resources provided by ATSU:
     • Medical Clinical Point-of-Care
     • Dental Clinical Point-of-Care
     • Pharmacology Clinical Point-of-Care
     • Physical Therapy Clinical Point-of-Care

Find clinical guidelines from major authorities both open access and provided by ATSU:

• Clinical Guidelines & Review Sources

1. ATSU provides a Library App that will act as fast single-login access to our major subscription POC resources and several key reference texts for many clinical areas. 
   • It includes interfaces for Medicine, Dentistry, Rehabilitation Therapies and Audiology.
2. The Library also provides access to individual apps for a number of key mobile resources, including UpToDate, ClinicalKey, Dynamed Plus and more.  See here for a full list.

EHR Access

(Clinical Rotations)

The Library provides two major apps to give access to our online collections:

The Library also subscribes to many resources that provide their own apps, including :

• UpToDate
• BrowZine
• ClinicalKey
• Canopy Speak
• Dynamed Plus
• Various e-book readers
• Etc.

Search this resource by title, author, journal, etc., in order to find a DOI and/or author's ORCID or other identifiers

• Tip : Remember, search for as few words as possible - the more you put in, the less you get out. If you don't find your article, try searching for only part of the article title. Leave off subtitles.

Many databases or journals will display the DOI in the article abstract, if it is available.

Most digital downloads of articles will display the DOI somewhere on the downloaded pdf itself. For example, the publisher Biomed Central will include it on the top left of each article

There are three currently acceptable forms of DOI according to APA - the older formats and the most recently adopted one. Any can be used correctly but APA recommends that you use only one in the same reference list. Consult your professors for their preference as to form, should they have one.

Example of APA citation of digital article using an older DOI format:

Thomson, O. P., Petty, N. J., & Moore, A. P. (2014). Clinical decision-making and therapeutic approaches in osteopathy – A qualitative grounded theory study. Manual Therapy, 19(1), 44–51. doi:10.1016/j.math.2013.07.008

Example of APA citation of digital article using an older DOI format:

Thomson, O. P., Petty, N. J., & Moore, A. P. (2014). Clinical decision-making and therapeutic approaches in osteopathy – A qualitative grounded theory study. Manual Therapy, 19(1), 44–51. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.math.2013.07.008

Example of APA citation of same article using the current DOI format:

Thomson, O. P., Petty, N. J., & Moore, A. P. (2014). Clinical decision-making and therapeutic approaches in osteopathy – A qualitative grounded theory study. Manual Therapy, 19(1), 44–51. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.math.2013.07.008

If you follow a DOI link, it will take you straight to the article and won't tell it if ATSU has the rights to access it even if we have a subscription. ATSU may also have access to it, but not the original version on the publisher's website.  If this happens, use these three steps to gain access to it:

1. Look up the article title using Still OneSearch on the Library's homepage
2. If that fails, look up the journal title using the Library's Browse e-Journals link. 
   • Select the correct year from the journal's index page
   • Select the correct issue and browse for the article title
3. If that fails, request the article or document using Interlibrary Loan
   • Typically takes 1-3 business days and is free to ATSU faculty, staff, students, and alumni (limit 5 per month for alumni only)

BrowZine is an app that pulls ATSU's subscription and some open access journals into one platform to display tables of contents for new journal issues, with links to the full-text.  You can get it as an app for your iOS or Android phone/tablet, or access it via any browser on your computer.

You can create a personal ID to use it to track new issues and articles for journals of interest to you. This differs from other sorts of Alert features because you must visit BrowZine's interface or app to find the notifications of new content - it does not swamp your email.

Scimago is a curated index of the top journals in a very wide assortment of academic research fields.

Use it to identify influential non-predatory journals to track in your area of interest, via BrowZine, email, etc.

You can set up a Database or Journal Alert for many different interfaces, journals or databases, which will automatically send you an email or even a text message when new articles or content are added to either a specific journal, search result set, or subject that you want to track. You must create an individual ID in order to do that in most cases.

Some examples include the EBSCO databases, PubMed, and the Chronicle of Higher Education.

RSS Feeds are lists of automatically updating new articles gathered by a string of code that can be copied from a resource and pasted into an RSS Feed reader, which can collect many such feeds. They can also be copied into webpages, where they will display an automatically updating list of new articles from a source.  This differs from Alerts as RSS Feeds do not appear in your email and may also display automatically in a list on a webpage.

Many resources that provide single article Alerts as described above can also offer or generate RSS feeds, including PubMed, many EBSCO databases, and many government agencies such as the CDC. 

Some examples of common free RSS Feed Readers are Feedly, the Old Reader, and RSSOwl.  If you have a Feed Reader, you can either paste the RSS feed code string into it, or search from within it for a feed from your desired source.

Many researchers use Twitter to announce new ideas or studies, or to follow those of others. Follow individual researchers or important associations for very current news.

Some examples of twitter feeds to follow : @NIH, @KHNews, @WHO, @HHSGov, @AOA, @APHA

Many more researchers and students use these to discuss and share research of interest. They commonly provide an open platform that can promote collaboration on projects, may provide a place to post green Open Access articles, and always aim to connect researchers with common interests. They allow you to create an online bibliography of interesting articles and share it with others, as described in this article from Nature. Some also provide assistance with formatting, but their key goal is to assist with organizing and sharing information.

Some examples : ResearchGate, Mendeley, Zotero, Social Science Research Network

There are numerous medical news aggregators of sometimes varying quality which offer brief blurbs about notable research. Use them to find out about interesting studies, but then read the actual study before evaluating it. These are not primary sources, but they can help you find out about research with buzz that you might want to explore. 

Some respected examples are : Stat, Science News, Kaiser Health News

Many associations for special areas of practice also track ongoing research activities of interest to their topic or their members and may share these on their website - this can be especially helpful for specific disorders or less common areas of specialty.  This information can range from an RSS feed to an open blog to an actual trade publication offering regular updates.

Some examples are : The American Osteopathic Association's HealthWatch, The American Dental Association's ADANews, the Association of Health Care Journalists

Many practitioners in health sciences fields gain much of their information about new practices from :

• Networking with peers at professional conferences
• Organization offered Continuing Education (CE) or Continuing Medical Education (CME) courses
• Organization or university hosted email listservs or closed forums

Keep your search string, or search terms, short at first and then narrow it down with later searches after you see what you get.

• EVERY letter you include reduces the number of results you find - the more you put in, the less you get out. 
• DO NOT search for entire sentences 
• If one of your search terms implies another search term, leave out the second term. For example, if you want to search for "legislation", do not search for "government legislation". "Government" is implied by "legislation". 

Search for all different ways to state the same concept. Use a thesaurus, field specific glossary or controlled vocabulary set. Find keywords from article abstracts.

• Other researchers may use different terms for the same thing you are interested in, especially in different fields. Terminology also changes over time. Search for every variation you can think of. Use Boolean OR and parentheses to build this into a single search.
• When you find one article that meets your needs, look for the Keywords or other information in the abstract that match your interests and try searching for more articles like it

Use search punctuation to control your search

• If your search includes a two or three word term, use quotation marks to enclose it and tell the database that those words must be found together. For example, searching for "environmental health" will find all articles that include that phrase with those two words next to each other in that specific order, and will ignore any that happen to include both but not together. This helps ensure that your search is actually finding relevant results.
  • Be aware - if you accidentally include an extra space or spelling error within your quotation marks, your search will only return any articles that also include that extra space or misspelling
• Find more examples of useful database search punctuation by visiting the help files within the specific database

Consult and use MeSH or other controlled vocabularies for databases that have them.

• Many databases, including PubMed, have special vocabularies that they use to describe included books and articles in order to ensure that similar articles are described in similar ways. This is very important because there are so many different ways of describing the same concepts in English.
• Most biomedical databases use or include PubMed's MeSH or Medical Subject Headings vocabulary, which you can freely consult via the MeSH Database and learn more about from the National Library of Medicine's Tutorial

Use Boolean search structure to control your search - AND OR NOT

• Boolean is a form of simple coding that nearly all databases will accept - see the entry on Boolean searching for more information.

Record your search terms and search locations.

• This will allow you to run consistent searches in different sources, and will allow others to repeat your research. This is required for many types of formal research studies.
• Many databases will allow you to create a personal ID and save your searches or found articles within the database.
• It is also a common practice to save search information and results in a citation manager such as Zotero or Mendeley, or to record it using cloud based utilities like Google Docs.
  • You can find more information about how to select and use a Citation Manager on the ATSU Citation Management Guide.

Do not limit your search to full-text articles or databases for anything more than superficial searching - this will artificially eliminate useful articles or sources.

• If you want an article that we do not have, use Interlibrary Loan to acquire it for free, typically within 2-3 business days.

If you find nothing, or less than you expected to find, check your spelling.

• If your spelling is correct, you are probably using different words than researchers and authors writing about your topic used. Try searching for a broader version of your search, or looking for other words.

AND

Use AND in between search terms to tell the database that your results must include both terms.

Example: 

OR

Use OR in between search terms to tell the database that your results can include either or both of the search terms.

Example: 

NOT

Use NOT to tell the database that you do not want articles including a search term within your results.

Use this as the last part of a search string for best effectiveness.

Examples:

You can build complex Boolean statements and search strings by adding punctuation, in similar form to alegbraic expressions. 

Examples of Boolean Search Strings

After you search a database - the Results Screen

Example: 

Still OneSearch limits peer review in the Results screen. Run your search, then look to the left for the Refine Results menu. Select Peer Reviewed to eliminate other types of results.

Before you search a database - the Search screen

Example:

Individual EBSCO databases or StillOne Advanced Search allow limits before the search. Look for the option and check it, then run your search.

• PubMed is a major important exception - while most journals indexed in PubMed are peer-reviewed, it does not mark them as such. To find out, you must follow the instructions below.

If you find a journal that is not labeled

If you find a journal article and want to know if its journal is peer-reviewed, you should :

• Look the journal up on its publisher's website using Google.
• Once you've found the journal, look for the "About" or "Information for Authors" or "Information" section
  • Usually this will be visible in the header or footer menus
• It will either say directly that it is peer-reviewed or discuss the review process.
  • If it does not state this, it is probably not peer-reviewed. If you are still unsure, you can contact the publisher and ask, or ask the Library for assistance.

Note: - even in peer-reviewed journals, some types of articles are typically not peer-reviewed. This includes editorials, commentary, opinions, etc. 

EbscoHost Databases

(PsycINFO, Academic Search Complete, Business Source Premier, CIHAHL, SPORTdiscus, etc.)

PubMed is the best source to find review articles for biomedical, medical, and public health topics.

1. Start your search from a PubMed link on the Library's site in order to tell it that you are affiliated with ATSU and gain access to the broadest possible range of full-text
2. Search for your topic
3. After your result list appears, click on "review" in the top left to limit those results to review articles
4. The remaining articles are all listed in the database as "review articles"; most will be systematic reviews or other types of literature reviews

Cochrane Library is largely made up of systematic reviews and is considered the gold standard source for systematic review articles; if your topic is clinical, you should include it in your search. 

CINAHL is the largest Nursing and Allied Health database.

1. Go to CINAHL, which will open to the Advanced Search
2. Scroll down to the bottom right of the search screen for the Publication Type option
3. Select Systematic Review
4. Run your search

PedRO is an Open Access source of evidence and literature for Physical Therapy and related fields.

1. Go to PedRO and click on the Advanced Search link under the Search heading
2. Select Systematic Review from the Methodology drop-down menu
3. Run your search

ProQuest Psychology Database offers mostly full-text psychology and social science literature.

1. Go to ProQuest Psychology Database
2. Click the link under the database name for Advanced Search
3. Scroll down the Document Type option menu to find Literature Review and check it
   1. Note: The "review" option type means book review; do not check it
4. Run your search

PsycINFO is the largest bibliographic database of psychological and social science literature; it also includes a very large proportion of medical and education literature.

1. Go to PsycINFO, which will open to the Advanced Search
2. Scroll down to the bottom right of the search screen for the Methodology option
3. Select Literature Review or, more narrowly, Systematic Review
4. Run your search

Dissertations and theses are not review articles, but they include literature reviews. If you are seeking a review article in order to get a useful list of citations and a general summary of the state of existing research, try looking for a dissertation.

Pay careful attention to its date : dissertation literature reviews are commonly written two years or more before their completion, and you may need to seek the most recent year of research.

Dissertation Sources

Most databases of articles and many individual journals include review articles. Some of them will offer special limiters like those described above to find them, but most will not. It requires careful browsing of abstracts to be sure, but the following keywords can make it easier to find the review articles in each database or journal.

• Topic AND "systematic review"
• Topic AND "literature review"
• Topic AND ("systematic review" OR "literature review")

First, start your research from the Library's homepage

• If you are searching PubMed, this will tell it that you are affiliated with ATSU, and that you should have access to more than just PubMed's basic collection of full-text content
  • PubMed does not permit you to limit your search to full-text articles, but the above will give you the highest chance of finding your articles in full-text
• If you are searching using Still OneSearch, this will tell it to give you the correct login to gain access to ATSU's resources
  • If you want to limit your search to ONLY full-text articles, you may check a box in Still OneSearch's results screen to limit your found results, or in the initial search box for most other article databases
  • Note: Limiting your search to only full-text will reduce your relevant search results, and you may miss out on the best resource for your topic. 

If you find an article that you want that is not full-text on PubMed or another database you are searching, look up the journal title using ATSU's browse e-journals list.

• You can find this list linked on the Library's homepage, right below the search button in the Still OneSearch box OR in the Discovery Tools box. This will tell you if and where we have full-text access to the journal that has the article you want. 
  • Make sure you look up the journal title, and not the article title - this index only includes journals, not articles
  • You will need to know the year and issue your article is in to find it

• Note: Embargoes

  • Sometimes, we have the journal full-text but with a delay - this is an embargo. Typically, this will range from the current issue (one-three month's delay) to a year or eighteen months. If there is an embargo and you want a recent article, you will need to request your article using an Interlibrary Loan Request

If we do not have the article available in full-text, enter an Interlibrary Loan Request using the form you can find on the left side of the Library's homepage, under Library Services.

• This lets you ask us to get the article for you and email it to you, which is free for you and usually takes between 1-3 business days.  

Find ideas or research updates to investigate by following shared links or news stories, or by following discussions on general social sites used by a broad range of the general public such as Twitter, Reddit, and Quora.

• These sites are great for finding out about new studies, events, conferences, current policy discussion, legal changes, etc. that are in need of further investigation
• Statements found here are NOT RELIABLE at all - everything you find here must be verified by consulting other sources

​Join social and research communities and blog sites for researchers and health sciences professionals such as  Mendeley, F1000 Workspace, NEJM Resident 360, Dental Elf, dentaltown, ResearchGate, other networks. Chat with other interested and hopefully expert people.

• These sites are great sources to find out about potential jobs, new research, potential research partners, interesting articles, etc.
• Look up the work of researchers or chatterers who share things on the above – ensure that they are respectable before you trust their work
• Find the original article or source mentioned in shared stories or news blurbs and use it to support your ideas
• If you want to include a comment from the discussion, cite both the discussion, and then the actual research article – make it clear that you verified the discussion from the article

Use Wikipedia to get a rough overview of an idea fast, but don’t trust it as being verifiably true.

• Look up articles or research in PubMed or other respected sources to support ideas discovered via Wikipedia.
• Quote the published articles or presentations, NOT the Wikipedia synopsis.

• This should be easy to find
• Ranking the domain for trustworthiness:
  1. .gov (caveat : for non-politically controversial science)
  2. .edu
  3. .org
  4. .com

• This should be both obvious and frequent

ATSU Writing Center offers much support and many reference documents about writing and citation.

Library Academic Writing Resources Guide offers a number of resources and citation guides.

Purdue OWL Research & Citation Resources offers guidance for research, citation, and writing for both APA and AMA styles.

APA Style Blog offers brief articles about specific citation situations for APA style.

AMA Manual of Style is the complete style guide for AMA style.

If you need to quickly build an APA, MLA or AMA citation, use your citation manager. This is not guaranteed. You MUST double-check the citation - if you choose the wrong options, your citation will be wrong.

DOIs (Digital Object Identifiers) are permanent, unique registered identifiers that are required for APA citation of online articles.

Use CrossRef to find DOIs for your citations.

A citation manager, also called a reference or bibliographic management system, is a utility that will allow you to store all of your citations in one personal account and will generate a formatted citation list. ATSU supports several free, portable options.

The Library can ask another library to email or loan us an article or print book. There is no charge to you, and it typically will take 1-3 business days. Use this when :

• Is it a journal article?
• Do you just need it once?
• Do you need it very quickly?
• Is it a book outside the typical subject range of the library?

The Library can also try to purchase a new e-book, journal, film, or other resource. Due to budget and planning concerns, it will typically be swift with e-books but may take significant time with other resources. Use this when:

• Is it an e-book that might be used by other students or faculty?
• Is it a required or recommended textbook?
• Are you a professor who wants to use it with your students or research?

Set Up Instructions

• Login to the resource using your ATSU login and password
  • Note : If the resource is a free resource or has a free version (Mendeley, Zotero, My NCBI, etc.), you will be able to later change the associated email address and carry your personal account with you even after graduation
• Create a personal ID for the resource following its directions
  • Find the option for doing this by clicking on something that would require it - either a folder, a my-account link, save link, etc.
• Use your ATSU email if an email is required
• Do not use your ATSU password - that will change regularly, and the one for your personal ID will not. If you use something different, you will be less likely to forget it

Later Use Instructions

• Login using your ATSU login and password
  • Note: Some resources will require this every time; most mobile resources will only require it when your ATSU login and password change
• Login again using your personal ID for that resource
