🏆 I need [more/fewer] results in Global Health Online
Sometimes, you start searching and you get too many results — way too many to look through. Or conversely, you get only a few results, even though you know that this topic has been investigated. What do you do then? In this 30-minute training (followed by optional practice time), you'll learn how to tweak your searches to find more results, or fewer results. We'll demonstrate and practice these skills with CAB Global Health, but you can apply these insights to improve searches in any literature database.
Learning outcomes:
-
Use CAB Global Health field tags like .ti., .cw., or .hw. to get fewer, on-target search results
-
Use Boolean operators with synonyms and less restrictive search queries to get more results
-
Select CAB Thesaurus terms and decide whether to explode them or not
Yes, there's a lot of jargon in those learning outcomes! Don't worry, we'll explain them all in the training.
