 How to conduct a search using subject headings in CINNL. In this video, we'll show you how to search using subject headings in CINNL by performing an example search in the database. First, we'll open the CINNL database. This is what you'll see when you open CINNL, except it will have your library information. To get started, click Advanced Search. Make sure Suggest Subject Terms is checked. Type in your search term, which in this case is Privacy, and click Search. Look for a relevant subject heading in the list. In this case, we see Privacy Use, Privacy and Confidentiality. This tells us that Privacy and Confidentiality is the closest match to Privacy. So let's click Privacy and Confidentiality. Here we see the Tree View. In this case, there are three trees, which means this subject heading is categorized in three different places. You can see broader and narrower terms and select one of them if they will be more appropriate to your search. Click the icon under the Scope column and read the scope note to verify the meaning of the subject heading. Click the checkbox next to the subheading you choose. So we'll stick with Privacy and Confidentiality. To the right of the scope column, you'll see a list of subheadings. If you see one or more that are particularly relevant to your search, you can click them. The selected terms will be added to the search term builder box. Be aware that this will limit your search results. I would suggest you start by leaving the Include All Subheadings box checked. Below the search database button, you have two options that you can select. The first is Explode. This option will give you more search results by including all narrower terms below your subject heading in the tree. In this example, Duty to Warm and Genetic Privacy. The second is Major Concept. This option will give you fewer but potentially more relevant search results by limiting your search to articles where your subject heading has been flagged as a major concept, meaning it is essentially important to the article. Next, click Search Database. And now you'll see a list of results. There you go. You know the basics of how to conduct a search in CINNL using subject headings.
