Title: Advanced PubMed 

• (CampusGroups):  

Description:  

Are you familiar with PubMed but want to be able to use its advanced features? Level up with Advanced PubMed! Upon completing this session, you should be able to:  

• Structure and build more complex searches, including 3 & 4 concept clusters per search​ 

• Define your search question as an answerable question using the PICO question format​ 

• Describe the record structure undergirding PubMed, including MEDLINE records​ 

• Utilize MeSH terms 

• Incorporate more advanced nested Boolean searches 

• Utilize the Boolean operator "NOT" in searches​ 

• Determine other potential databases to search in addition to PubMed based on your topic​ 

• Utilize PubMed’s error notification system.  

Prerequisites: Advanced PubMed has been designed as an additional step in the learning process for intermediate PubMed users. Note that if you have just completed our Painless PubMed class, you will likely need to practice using PubMed to develop fluency in the basics before arriving at the level at which you will be able to follow Advanced PubMed. Not sure if you’re ready for Advanced PubMed? Try the following exercise:  

You are ready to take Advanced PubMed if you can perform these tasks without referencing guides: Run an author search; how many citations do you get? Set up a MyNCBI account and save a collection. Run a search on two concepts (fever in sore throat) using MeSH terms. Limit your search to English language results. Email the results of this search to yourself.  

Feel free to bring your lunch. Please bring a laptop. Some database searching experience recommended. Open to all �ǿմ�ý students, staff, faculty, and hospital affiliates. This session will be led by a Cleveland Health Sciences Library Librarian. For questions, comments, or accommodation requests, please contact us at askCHSL@case.edu 24 hours in advance.
