 All right. Good morning and welcome to this week's edition of Encompass Live. There we go. All right. Hi. I am your host, Krista Porter, here at the Nebraska Library Commission. Encompass Live is the Commission's weekly online event. We are a webinar, webcast, online show. The terminology is up for debate to some people. I don't know. We call it a webinar. But whatever you like to call these things, we are here live, online, every Wednesday morning at 10 a.m. Central Time. If you're unable to join us on Wednesday mornings, that's fine. We do record the show every week, and the recording is then made uploaded to the Library Commission's YouTube account. So you are able to watch our recordings there if you want. Both the live show and the recorded shows are free and open to anyone to watch. So do share with any of your colleagues that you think might be interested in any of our topics. Actually, any of your colleagues, friends, neighbors, family, anybody who you think might have an interest in something, send them to our website. Excuse me, to register for our upcoming shows or to watch our recordings. And I will show you at the end of today's show where all those archives are on our website as well so that you can find them later. We do a mixture of things here on Encompass Live, interviews, book reviews, mini-training sessions, demos of services and products. Basically our only criteria is something library related. Something libraries are doing, some resource or service we think they could use, something we think they should be using. Some of our topics might seem a little outside the box. You might look at it and see the title or something and say, I don't get it. But trust us, I make sure everything comes around to libraries in the end. That is our focus here, of course. Being hosted here out of the Nebraska Library Commission, we do sometimes have library commission staff that do sessions but we also bring in, for things that are library commission centric, things that we're doing, services we're providing, programs we're doing here. But we also bring in guest speakers from around the state and around the country, actually. And that's what we have today. Two of my left today is Annette. I think it's PartyMoss. PartyMoss, yes. PartyMoss, part of it. She's various things. Maybe I'll let you introduce yourself. Medical research is what we're talking about today. Medline, PubMed, things we've all used or encountered, I would hope at some point. But there's a lot of different versions of these things out there now. Annette knows all about these and she's going to tell us how we can use them all. Sounds good. So I'll hand over to you to take it away. Thank you. Yes, I'm Annette PartyMoss and I'm an education outreach coordinator for the mid-continental region of the National Network of Libraries of Medicine. And I'll explain that here in a second. But today my presentation is PubMed, PubMed Central Medline, Medline Plus. What's the difference? And so today the idea is by the end of this, you'll be able to differentiate between those four resources and what they all offer. Know where to seek help with these resources. I can be one of that help, that staff. And if I don't know the question, I can forward that up to the powers that be that know more than I. And also I will show you where you can find tutorials and things on those websites. So if you're just trying to get familiar with them or to see what things they may offer, I'll show that. Probably kind of a brief overview. But again my contact information will be at the end of the presentation. Crystal will have it as well. You are welcome to send me any questions you have, even health information related but especially when it comes to any National Library of Medicine resources. And then the other one is to recognize when to use the resources and for which audience because they are different and they offer different things. And so I'll kind of give some we'll show some example searches, maybe some different cases that you might have where you can use it. And to know that they're not necessarily like one type of library specific. That these aren't just for hospital librarians or for health science librarians or certain ones are for public. They all can kind of be used in different situations. So to give you an overview. I know that it was that not just Nebraska that is some sort of region. So that's the part like that is the mid-continental region of the National Network of Libraries of Medicine. So what the network is all these libraries that join in together but there's these regional kind of headquarters. Our region here in the middle of the country is a little different in the fact that we have representatives located physically in each state. The other regions have kind of one headquarters that they all are based out of and they go outreach to the other states that are in that region. So here we happen to have me here in Nebraska, we have say Dana Abbey in Colorado and Lisa Lillich in Kansas and Barb Jones in Missouri, Jim Honor and Maya Oming, John Bramble in Utah as well as the Utah's where our official headquarters are. But I'm here based in Nebraska and Omaha at Creighton University. So that's kind of odd in a way but we support all of these states. And the National Network of Libraries of Medicine, these regional headquarters were really outreach for the National Library of Medicine. So I did a little acronym definition on the side so you start seeing that NLM and NLM all of that. And the National Library of Medicine is under the NIH which at the bottom of your screen you'll see our lovely logo now and kind of how that all intertwines. It's nice to see how it breaks down, how the hierarchy is. And they've tweaked the logo, this slash, that more than tweak, really redesigned. And it's nice because it does give that full view of what the heck we are and how we fit into all of this. Right. So in order to summarize very briefly I'm here to help find health information. I can train, I can do outreach specifically and talk to people about National Library of Medicine. But I also talk about free and other open resources. So that's something I can offer for you, your libraries. I can help with questions but I can also do online and in-person trainings. Especially the in-person if it's in Nebraska. But that's also not limited because we do have other people in other states too. So the focus of today are these four resources and how they fit in together. You'll see this diagram and takes on it throughout my presentation because I was trying to figure out a way to kind of visually represent it and I'll explain how they fit in and why I kind of chosen this way to do it as we go along. But we're talking PubMed, Medline, Medline Plus, and PubMed Central. So the first one I'm doing is Medline and it's the core database. It was the one that's been around the longest and what a lot of these resources have built upon over time. It has its reference database of more than 23 million references to journal articles. And it's specifically left sciences with a focus on biomedicine. So again, this is the core, this is the base, this is the thing that's been around and the thing that like... Right about this one for years and years. And so a lot of times people equate Medline with PubMed. There's some similarities and Medline is in PubMed which I'll explain in a bit too. But it gets a little confusing because there's additional things that PubMed offers. But you can find Medline articles or the Medline references. So there's not articles specifically in Medline, it's the references to the articles. You can find those using PubMed. And also like, so some of you I know would have like Epsco subscriptions that have an Epsco Medline. That kind of same kind of thing is Epsco's having kind of, they add some value on their end to their Medline searches. But really when it comes down to it, you're using that interface to still search Medline and it's that same core database. This is not full text. Correct. This is just the citations. Yep, so Medline's just the citations. And officially, so is PubMed although the full text part gets kind of nicely intertwined. So you're not necessarily going to see separate that you're oh, I'm going out from two full texts. It's going to seem like it's really integrated in PubMed, but officially it's not. That's a pretty fine line though. The one thing is, so previously here, so Medline has more than 23 million references. PubMed has about 26 million references. So Medline makes up the most of PubMed and you can find Medline by using PubMed, but there's still this other like 3 plus million that is a little, that PubMed has that Medline does not. So part of that includes these bubble points that I have on the side. It's including in-process or pre-Medline citations. So there's certain journals that are involved in PubMed. So before those references are actually published, it's the ones that are working on it and they're not quite Medline ready, but you can find them in PubMed. You can also find out of scope articles. So PubMed had that very specific narrow biosciences approach, whereas in PubMed you can find things like say if it's an article from a Medline journal that's been approved in Medline but it's an article on plate tectonics, it technically wouldn't be found in Medline unless it had a house science related to it, but you can find it in PubMed. Again really simple, like really fine lines here, but that's why it gets kind of confusing because they all kind of blend. And then also there's the NCBI bookshelf is vast and wonderful and is bioinformatics ebooks that are free and open and you can also search them using PubMed. So that's, you don't have to worry about going out to NCBI bookshelf itself, but you can search for those bioinformatics resources using PubMed. And then also has some citations or there's citations to some PubMed Central journals that aren't specifically also in Medline. So there's some things that are in PubMed Central which is full text, all of which and that are in PubMed that necessarily wouldn't be in Medline. And again these are a lot of fine lines and hairs, but it also helps and I'll show you later about when you go to search and how you can limit. And so if you're trying to get full text only, you're really going to be kind of searching PubMed Central or any, sometimes publishers provide open full text articles or also institutions can do link out from PubMed. So if you have a subscription to a database that has articles you can incorporate your institutions that'll be able to tell where your institution that kind of like, I would think of it as like kind of Google Scholarish that it's like, oh you want to find this full text article in your institution? Click here. So it's and I'll explain PubMed Central here in a little bit. But if you're finding full text articles in PubMed, oftentimes you're really linking to PubMed Central. It's nice that it seems kind of seamless to you though, you don't really realize a user wouldn't realize that they've been thrown out to somewhere else. Exactly. And most of PubMed Central will be found in PubMed. So it's a very light on here, but kind of with the bigger PubMed circle that incorporates a lot of this, if not all of it. So it's going to have all of Medline and it's going to have most of PubMed Central. There may be, there's going to be maybe a little bit of a sliver of PubMed Central that isn't in PubMed. And there's very good reasons for that. There's some approved PubMed Central journals. That's a lot of times have the ultimate control about where their articles are going to appear. And that's a lot of it. It's also sometimes with PubMed to get in there you need to be a Medline Journal. And sometimes too if you're a smaller journal or an international journal it can be harder or there's things that maybe you don't qualify for, but you still have some health sciences articles. So it's kind of interesting as to how you can get in. And there's specifics on that too that I can happily share with somebody to explain what the differences are between the journal sets. But most of the big part today, the takeaway I want is that they're different. That's the big part. They aren't going to be PubMed Central and Medline don't because it's in one doesn't necessarily mean it's in the other. And that's where it can get kind of confusing. But there are I mean it is pretty seamless between PubMed and PubMed Central. And PubMed Central is that full text archive and it's open. If it's in PubMed Central you know it's going to be an open full text article. And then using all of this information you have Medline Plus which also gets confused with just Medline itself but really it's this value added information that it is designed for patients families and other consumers. So it'll take these PubMed articles and kind of use that as a base or Medline articles and use that as a base but really it's got this big overview like if you go and search a disease say it's diabetes. It'll give you an overview of what really diabetes is about and in plain simple English as often or as much as they can. And then below that it'll give links out to other credible resources but then also links to these journal articles. So it's a nice way to start on an overview. And it also gives news and it'll link out to other websites so like Mayo Clinic. That's one Ethnomed. Different ones that are credible resources vetted by the National Library of Medicine. So it uses Medline and PubMed articles and PubMed Central articles even to kind of create this information but it isn't just a database or a search engine for articles. There's a lot more there. I like about these websites that it links to have actually been evaluated by NLM because there's a lot of everything out there on the internet a lot of medical information from some not so accurate sources and if you just go and Google these things you're going to find links to Medline Plus or to Mayo Clinic but mixed in there you're going to find who knows what and if you can just have people just look at this go here first. What it links to is the ones you really want to listen to. And that's also with Medline Plus since it is a federal government resource by the National Library of Medicine there's no ads. You're not going to be asked to do a subscription. You can create like PubMed accounts and things like that if you want to but you don't have to. The reason you do that is to save searches that kind of stuff. So okay especially if you're doing a lot of research it can be really useful but things otherwise you're not going to be forced to create an account. You're not going to be seeing any ads and it's been vetted resources or at least like with the case of Medline the journal itself is vetted and the articles that go into it then would be health sciences ones from those journals. So this is like the big overview. So that's kind of going back to my original diagram is I'm getting a big PubMed that kind of incorporates searching Medline, searching most of PubMed Central and then also making the basis for Medline Plus. So what I'm going to do from here on is really focus on PubMed and Medline Plus and showing you what they offer because PubMed is going to incorporate most of Medline or I was going to incorporate all of Medline and most of PubMed Central. So you can go out and look at PubMed Central by itself and kind of see the difference but I'm going to focus on those other two really as so you can see kind of the difference between the two and then also how to search in PubMed for just those limiters of how to search just for Medline, how to search for just full text which is a lot of which is PubMed Central. So we'll still come back to those but I'm going to be using just two resources to kind of simplify this whole thing. So my quick tour here we're going to... Okay, so I'm going to give it a tour before we do sample searches and things and the big things is I should pull this back up quick like I said I wanted to show you the limiting and then also for showing limiting for Medline, showing limiting for full text and also where to find help. So that way if you're just stuck and you're like I just want to know quickly how to do this and that's where I'm going to start first and then I'll go back to the searching. So the PubMed Tutorials is from the homepage. PubMed.gov will get you to this URL and the Tutorials link is right on the homepage on the left of using PubMed and there's a quick start guide. There are full text articles that there's epic users all kinds of stuff. I think the easiest part for me to start was the Tutorials. There's probably other people who have other ways they would like to start. But for this the reason I like this is because there have been some very specific Tutorials that will describe the scope. So what I'm doing now but in a more depth resource. It'll also go PubMed for nurses. That was something that just came out October 2015 and it's Tutorials geared specifically toward nurses. So this is some of these value out of pieces that I wanted to show that are right here and these are also you can see when they're regularly updated very easily. For those of you that deal in mesh there's a nice one there. Searching drugs or chemicals in PubMed and how to do that. But then below that there's these quick tours. So these are just going to be these one to two minute videos of I just want to know how to search PubMed by author. There you go. It's a two minute video. So that's why I like this Tutorials page because you can see how long it is and it'll give you very specific things. If this is what you want to search for here's the video for you. And especially starting out new. I like this but even if you're trying to get more advanced you will get to see that here's the saving searches preferences and filters. There's advanced searching tools and here's like their webcasts and videos. So these are you've already been using PubMed for a while or you feel like you've got a good grasp of it quickly. Here's where you can go to get a really in depth piece of how to expand it for you and different webcasts that they have offered on PubMed searches that kind of stuff and some of it's in NLM so people like my colleagues around the country some's coming from NLM itself it just it depends on the resource. So again this is why I like this page because you can also then here too it will give you ideas of how long this is. So like for the advanced PubMed tips, tricks and tools that's a 25 minute commitment. I like the other ones that are just these short 1, 2, 3 minutes because if you don't want to sit through, I want to just get to the part of this hour long workshop that was about whatever breaking up like this is really nice. And I think especially when you're starting out on something because you're like I'll give you a full 90 minutes hoping something works for me here or hey this is a place where I can start. I found this to be the best place to start when I was first searching and figuring out what I wanted to do and making sure I was using it to its fullest. And it's a nice little teaser. So I'm going to quick clip this down and then the related to that and I know it's linked in PubMed but what I how it's easier for me to get to is learn.nlm.nih.gov or you can Google NLM learning resources database so that's a learn it's learn nlm.nih.gov and you can actually search by PubMed. This is something we've been trying to get tutorials in here as all from all these different products and subjects which there's a lot of them and this gets overwhelming. But if you and there's a K-12 education but if you go down here's a PubMed, here's a PubMed central PubMed Health is a whole different thing and we have an entire webinar on what help PubMed Health is different so if you're interested in that I can help you out with that to give you the links. And there's all the different resources so if you were looking for something specific and you can start here to in search. I like the tutorial page to see all the things that it offers and know what to look for and especially when I'm starting this one's kind of nice though because like if you were looking for how to automate PubMed searches this will show you that there was a webinar or is a webinar coming up actually and so it will give you an idea of things that are also coming up. So I'm going to go back here and just do a really brief search and since I used the Diabetes example I'm going to do that here and this is a keyword search. This is nothing I'm not going to go into really crazy specifics other than how to narrow some of the things. So let's do usually I got it to pop up right away. So here's the free full text or the full text. If you do free full text a lot of times you're going to be limiting it to PubMed Central. Not all of it, there could be other ways that publishers are linking out directly to their articles but a lot of it is going to be linked into PubMed Central. So I'm just going to choose a random article and like this one is a free full text. I guess officially I think this is a book but this is going to NCBI Bookshelf actually. So this was a good example of how to get to there. This was a book I didn't limit out I guess to articles I just limited to full text. So this is a full text book that they have on the NCBI Bookshelf. So that was officially a link into NCBI Bookshelf. Like I said if it's an article a lot of times this is you will be linking. So if I wanted to specify more article types I can link further down and choose articles and then more likely I'm going to be hitting PubMed Central. So that's a way and I know people will talk about death by full text but especially if you're having someone that's standing in front of you and really want to walk away with an article. They want it now, yeah. It's at least some way to do that quickly. Otherwise if you have references there's a variety of things. It's just like any other database. It'll just be the index and the reference and then I'll have to ILL if you don't have a subscription to that journal. So let's go. Okay. So we're going to do I'm going to click on advanced search here up at the top. And what I also like about PubMed is that it'll keep your history at least for a while so you can kind of see to what you've been doing and that way I always do that. Wait I clicked on something five minutes ago that was really better than what I'm doing now. How do I get back to that? And so that's the part where it can be like oh I thought I had the oh okay you know and so let's see if I can get to my database. And they've been this is one of those where you get so used to having the filters that come up on the sides quickly that when I don't like wait a minute where did it go? Okay so let's do another. Well I'm going to be doing this search later but I think it takes a little bit of a clear little trial. So this gives you an idea though of how many things you can filter down to which is kind of impressive and maybe a wee bit overwhelming for some. But also let's see if I do there we go. Okay so this is where I'm like I know it's on this front page somewhere. So to filter down to a med line specifically you can actually even see what the real med line entry looks like. So it's a little crazy. And which I think is also kind of fun. It's very retro it's like we didn't have these pretty interfaces back then. So if you want to at least feel like you're going back and you know go back in time a little style just here that's a good way to do it. But it's and this is where I'm blanking here at the moment of course because I'm on the spot but I do know there we go. Journal categories. There we go. So now I'm searching that line so why didn't pop up at first and why I forget is when I'm searching on my own computer I already have this saved as permissions. So I had to go to additional filters and choose journal categories. And then under that there's a med line specific and then this will be searching all med line journals and also nice here is like this is you can see that this says a free PMC article that's central. So you know there's a full article available if you click that link and it's coming from PubMed Central. Sometimes the best way to show things is when you're lost to confuse yourself but so that's where I found this is how I kind of maneuver around PubMed some of the things I found most useful. And so again since I did have a hard time with that in order to limit to med line journals I did stereo additional filters, chose journal categories and then I was able to choose med line journals from there. So it's like some people are like PubMed Central some of the journals in there like they might have a different scope or people are kind of worried about them and they've been vetted to a degree but I understand to these med line there's another level. So that's been something we've been asked a number of times is how do I get specifically to the med line journals and that's how you do it. I'm going to go home quick and on because over on the right here there's help. So you should be able to find this pretty much anywhere on PubMed.gov and it's got a like little tutorial book and YouTube tutorials and all that kind of stuff which you can obviously read and look at and use. There's also like frequently asked questions in this that kind of thing. So it's a little bit different than that tutorial page that I showed you. So this is another help piece and there's also ways that you can see here. If you go down to the bottom there's also like support center which is another good resource and should usually give you to the contact information if you're really having a difficult time. Again I'm here you're welcome to contact me but this will give you some things that like link out for libraries things that people might be having difficult times finding it'll give you an idea and so this is there's a couple different places but then there's also an LLM chat and contact an LLM here. So the support center is really useful for any of our resources if you want to contact an LLM directly. Do you think especially if it's a really advanced search or something or advanced tool you're trying to get to use and you feel like they will be able to answer your question better you are welcome to contact them too. You don't have to go through me. I'm just saying I'm a local resource that I can be used to. And the chat is that like live chat or I mean so I'm like I will click on it because I know. So they have an ask in LLM and it gives you examples of where you can use it and you can obviously also call them and that kind of stuff but this is nice because this will pop up and you know when they're available. Yeah you're chatting with them while you're in the database and they can help you figure out what you need to do. So that's PubMed and kind of that little tutorial of the various things you can do in PubMed. So I'm going to switch over to Medline Plus So here's just even the user interface you can kind of tell is different right off the bat. It looks very like lay person friendly. Yes. And that's the part is if it's trying to be as self-explanatory as humanly possible. So it's going to have some today's health news headlines that they use a third party to generate those. So it's things that are going on in the real world and what people might be interested in looking up right at that moment is they heard about a news article or saw a video spot or a TV spot. So the videos and tools though I think is really fun just for browsing and I can click on that here in just a bit. There's also here easy to read materials which are actually designated easy to read on a variety of subjects. So you can click that and see different things like and like I said these are specific easy to read materials and if you click on one you'll kind of understand but there's on a variety of subjects but not in every subject is going to have a specific easy to read document. All of the Medline Plus overview information is written more for that lay person in mind. It's going to be written at that sixth to eighth grade level maybe even younger if they can make trains like the medical terms to do that but this specifically I'll choose alcohol facts. So easy to read has some specific things that are designated easy to read and what you can look for and so here's one that on a lot of them have PDFs you can print and with those PDFs are often going to be images that kind of thing. So this gives you a little idea of the easy to read specific materials. A lot of them were designed to be printed to be able to hand to patients, clients and consumers as they're in the office. But also another one that a lot of people find useful is the health information in multiple languages and Medline Plus does have a sister site if it's in English it's in Spanish. So for the Spanish speakers the best way to do it is medlineplus.gov slash espanol or slash Spanish whereas some there are a lot of other languages there are a lot of other materials that have other languages also and this is a list of different languages that have materials in Medline Plus but not every piece of information is in these languages by any means except with the exception of Spanish. So it gives you an idea though of what's available so if you're working with populations that have a wide variety of languages this can be a really good resource and it also links to health reach which is another really good resource that I can go into in another webinar sometime. But also from here are those videos and tools. So I think surgery videos are fun but I understand that other people can be a little queasy with them. Yeah I thought that was the first chance like oh that was great for you but I love those and that's yeah I'm more like now it depends. And you never know if it's going to be something that will horrify you and start you for life or not. And so for some people it's like they can see maybe if they have an operation coming up or if they have a family member that does see what's going on and some people that might freak them out more than they think but it's a tool that's here. For health videos I've recommended that's a K-12 population even before if they need some extra tools for their classrooms or if they're trying to demonstrate something in a library there's something there. What I also like off of and there's games just all kinds of fun stuff here and health check tools. What I really like for librarians is evaluating health information. So there's actually a tutorial from the National Library of Medicine. It's a little older or looks a little older I should say but it's been it's still got good information of the tutorial of how to identify good health information. Also from I'm going to go back to the homepage on the About Medline Plus another really useful resource is want to learn more training materials for librarians and trainers so you can even do a little search in Medline Plus and just do librarians and trainers and this will pop up as well. So there's a tour of the thing. There's brochures available which if you also want Medline Plus brochures or handouts please let me know because I do have some that I can mail you or bring by depending on where you're at. There's also all of these resources. So there's that evaluating health information tutorial that I just clicked on and there's other ones that have been created around the country. So Medline Plus has some really nice things for librarians and trainers that can be useful that people don't really know are here sometimes. So I'm going to go back to my slides and we'll be back here in just a minute. So I'm actually going to keep these smalls not full screen at least they might look a little ridiculous. So we did the two worse and I should say if you look for that customer support you'll be able to get help just like you did on PubMed and they might even have I think the chat pop up quicker. So for activity today I'm going to show you and you're welcome to search along if your bandwidth can take it. If you want to just watch me that's okay too but I am going to search both PubMed and Medline Plus for EpiPen and then the more specifically I should say it's kind of a more generic but specific medical term of what an EpiPen really is is an FNF for an injection and to give you an idea of what these two things offer. So I'm going to go back to my PubMed and to get to this page again you don't even have to remember this whole long URL you can just do pubmed.gov and it'll get you there. So I'm going to just do keyword again I'm not going to worry about advanced search but I'm going to search EpiPen to start with. And it gives you some ideas I can limit by article but I'm not going to I'm just going to go with the straight ideas here my filter is still activated so I'm going to clear all so I'm not just searching Medline and so you can see there's about 112 resources that came up when I searched specifically for EpiPen which is a specific trademark term. So it's like searching for Tylenol instead of acetaminophen to give you an idea if anybody didn't realize that the official term would be epinephrine injection which I will also search for here in just a second. But you can kind of get a sense of so these are all these are this is a journal article reference here's a free PubMed Central article that you can get to about EpiPen and here's an epinephrine another way possibly search would be auto-injector instead of just epinephrine injection but you get about 112 resources all academic resources. So I'm going to quick search over and do the exact same search and Medline Plus. So again to get to Medline Plus .gov and if I do EpiPen here it'll also really like this because it'll start doing some auto-correct suggestions and so I'm just going to do the first one but then so the best part is is it knows it's telling me hey the bigger overview is really epinephrine injection and this is your first most relevant results. So that's the one is I would click on if I was doing I just wanted to do some information and what I also like here is you can see it's pulling out of the drug info. So you can search types of drugs that kind of thing if you're wondering like what does this prescription do what's more information on this I got this big old sheet from my doctor but I don't know what I did with it. You can always tiny text you can't read. I was going to say always call your doctor or pharmacist too if you need more of that information but if you're like if it's a tiny text you can't read you want to go to another place to try to help understand it this can be a really nice place to go but also don't be afraid to ask your pharmacist or doctor questions because they're going to be the experts on that. This is just to help you when you're trying to get a grasp of your own or maybe if you want to call your pharmacist but honestly I'm not sure where to start here can be a nice place to do it too. So and that's what I also like this because it'll use things like injects subcutaneously and then it defines it. So for those that don't know what subcutaneously is just off the top of your head it actually tells you that which and that's where I really like Medline Plus and I used it for undergraduate research especially like senior students or other biology students were searching a medical topic for the first time and really didn't know where to begin or what it really was I would have them go here to just get an overview and then it also links out to those other credible academic resources. So it's a nice place to start even if you're working with undergrads this can be a really useful database just to get a good search for health science topics. So if I go back to PubMed there are some quotes FNFRN injection which I'm actually glad I have that pulled up in another tab or I would not remember how to spell FNFRN right off the top of my head. So I had 112 with EpiPen I'm already up to 389 because the FNFRN injection is going to be that more generic more medical term and there are other makers of it not just EpiPen. Exactly. So that's the thing is most people if we talk about like we don't necessarily know if they actually have a true EpiPen if there are some other maker of that can be similar but most of us would call it an EpiPen. It's kind of like Kleenex and Bathroom Tissue. Most of us aren't saying or Facial Tissue most of us don't call it I need a Facial Tissue. We're all into Kleenex. Whether it is or not. So that's the same thing kind of here. So that's the part where I do like MedlinePlus because if you just really didn't know that more specific term not that you couldn't find it in PubMed but MedlinePlus help you give it a little sooner and especially if you're kind of new to the health sciences research. So like this would be another one is I probably would do another search too is autoinjectors because that keeps coming up as well. So we already expanded the research we already expanded the results because it's going to be academic journals getting to go do the same thing over here and we're already on the FNFRN injection page but it does why I'm doing this here too is the fact is it'll give me a little bit different search results and if I can spell FNFRN I even had it on the page and I didn't do it right. Too many ins. There we go. So as long as you haven't completely done that like you could see is it was already starting to do some auto correct for me and once I like it could find what I was doing I just type in a little too fast for it to catch up. But what I also like this is FNFRN injection so it was I can go back to that drug page where I was at but here's also links out to credible resources under here. So food allergies so maybe you have a kid that has been diagnosed with food allergies for the first time or you have a parent that's wondering about information on this. This links out to NEMERS which has a great kids health site and it can talk to about that of what this means and this is designed for kids themselves so maybe it's that 7-8 year old that is wondering what's going on with me. Here's something that they might be able to help talk to them and also in Spanish. So that's I like this for that kind of reason too that search will get you out to those other credible resources like national Jewish health. So my next search is similar but instead of a drug I'm going to use something that we very commonly refer to as the stomach flu and in PubMed we're not going to get much. This one looks like it might have been originally in Swedish so it might be the translation. There's a few like there's some health news that are popping up so there are some news articles that will pop up in here and not this isn't necessarily just journal articles so I got six. I go over to MedlinePlus, stomach flu for some reason I keep putting an E at the end. It pops right up and says it actually this is what you're really searching for. If you're searching stomach flu this is really what you mean and that's what I like because it's this big overview even right on your search page. You think you mean stomach flu well what you probably mean is and it does it and it gives you even a nice little overview right there and so you're like oh yeah that is what I mean so I'm going to look up gastroenteritis and that's something that most people would not say like I have gastroenteritis today. Which bonus points maybe if you do actually use the proper term but and so this will give you that overview and really MedlinePlus is saying like this is really one in the same this is what you're looking for and it'll also show you like results if you want to read in these particular. Exactly so that's where I and whereas so if we go back and this is where like again I use it for undergrads was so if you're like oh well now I know what I'm searching for and let's see if I can actually I think I misspelled that because I think there's an I in there instead of another E I might be wrong this is where I have no I actually did it right okay so we went from 6 to 185 almost 86,000 then you want to narrow down so here's where the difference is that you're looking at you want the scientific information with the scientific term as much as humanly possible and if you can get to mesh terms and want to know more about that and you're wondering what the heck is a mesh term we can talk about that to another time or give me a call send me an email and I'll explain what the heck is going on with those but for this is where in PubMed you're going to want that scientific term because you are looking at scientific journals for the most part there's some other stuff but you're really going to want that term whereas MedlinePlus is like most people refer to this as the stomach flu so here's what you really want to get and that's where I that's where the two really differ and so it's also for public libraries where this can be useful is if you have that person who has been really searching and they already know that what the terms they need or they have been looking all over the consumer health sites but what they really want is some deeper information that can be where doing things like MedlinePlus into PubMed can be really helpful because they might be ready for those journal articles and also might scare them but they might be ready for it and so here's that gastroenteritis topic page and if I'm you can see even at the top here's that search so say you're like they're like oh yeah I know this I realize like this normally called the stomach flu I get all of this I want to see so what's going on in the medical field right now in this area you can go to journal articles and guess what it's going to pop up some of the more recent journal articles that's been part of it so what's going on in the world what's going on here but you can also do see more articles from here and where does it take you well it takes you over to PubMed and it even has a nice pretty search string already there for you so and like I said I was just doing a keyword search before this one is going to be specifically looking at articles and you can look at the search string to see what it's all narrowing to but that's where I really like MedlinePlus as a place to start for research too but if people have kind of moved beyond this then it can take you on out to PubMed so I don't know if we've had any questions see nothing so far yeah if you have any questions anything you want to see more detail on anything about any of the databases that you're not sure about or you're wondering what they can do you can do them type into the question section of your go-to-webinar interface let me know if you have your own microphone it says earlier I'll just use your microphone to ask your questions just type in I have a microphone please unmute me and you can ask your question that way I do I just see how depending on a lot of this comes out comes from I think doing your reference interview in the first place talking to the person seeing where they're coming from is MedlinePlus more for general public and once you're if you're doing research already jump up PubMed will be more for the more advanced so they do have different focuses but that's what you've got to figure out in the first place is why they're doing this research where they're coming from in it where the level is of knowledge already and that's in the part two is especially if they've kind of already had that knowledge but maybe haven't done a lot of searching on their own in a way like they've pulled off what they could but if like PubMed searching is a little nerve racking for them and they want to walk out with an article that's where it may be going to PubMed Central be a good place to start instead of just doing the filters because it can be you know you're doing full text there you know what you're getting you know we're getting it out right away but for me as a librarian I'd much rather start with that bigger database and be able to limit so that's PubMed Central that's where that can be a plus but also part of the reason I didn't show it is because it is really still incorporated in PubMed and you're going to find most of the PubMed Central stuff there and I've been using MedlinePlus I know public librarians use it I know hospital librarians use it I know academic librarians that use it and PubMed can be the same but especially for those that aren't used to academic or and especially even health sciences searching because that's even a whole different beast it can be overwhelming so this is part two is I'm here and that's a good way I'm here if you have questions if you would like to have training for you or your staff or if you or professors at your college or if you know of a group of patrons in your library that are really interested in health research and want someone to come in and work with them on how to search not that you all can do that but I also know that time is limited too so if you have another resource you are welcome to you to call me I am focused on Nebraska for outreach but I do things like this that is can be broadcast nationally internationally even but also I can do online training but I also can do in person training especially for the state of Nebraska so if that's something you're interested in now I will say I'm based in Omaha so if it's western Nebraska that takes a little more planning it's not something I can do perhaps on a whim but I also I also know how important in person training can be so that's the thing is I also don't leave that out if there's anything I can do and there's no cost for this right correct so I'm sure people wonder like how much is it going to cost to bring you out here to do this yeah yeah that's I this is part of my job it's what I do and there's also if you're really wanting in depth PubMed you're like I know the basics I know all that but when I get to the advanced level creating a search string for search string for systematic review if you don't know if that's okay but if that's kind of the thing you want there are so many wonderful webinars and trainings and courses offered by fellow in an L.M. people also we have a national training office that does specifically things on that and that's where I included that link here that as I said there's there's other things out there that you can attend yeah and you can get to our regions training from this but you can also get to what other in an L.M. regions and offices are offering around the country and so it's not just what we have here and what the six of us can do it's what all of us as a team from an L.M. can do and they will also include National Library of Medicine trainings on there too I don't know if it's all of them but I know they do have some of them on there which is nice to click on that and see if it should open up. So we have so here's our training opportunities upcoming classes and it'll show you even what are sponsoring on RML which is like I guess that is I'm in the continental region so we're M.C.R. so that's where these acronyms come into play like our national training office is in T.O. it's from PubMed for Librarians using evidence-based search features and this is one of a series of six, seven and they do this series pretty frequently and making PubMed work for you is of course that we have coming up here and that you can go ahead and register for so this is and you can like I said you can search all of what we have to offer across the NNLM using this and if you have any questions about the region about what the trainings we can offer again don't hesitate to contact me. It's nice to see all these guys, everyone sharing all of this information rather than saying you only in our area you can only use our things. It's much nicer to be. We have so many really wonderful sessions. We are all about sharing and then interlibrating and helping each other and not being very, you know, mine, mine, mine. And if you're from I know there's a couple people throughout the US on the webinar today. If you're from throughout the US you have people like me in your region and if you're not sure who to contact feel free to email me still and I can put you in contact with them. Again, we're about sharing. We're about helping each other out. If you on in person or in training done in your state you would reach out to your individual person there. We might have to do a question. Oh, yes. This has been very helpful. Thanks for presenting. I appreciate that. Oh, and I will ask a favor. Crystal, send this out after the webinar. But also, if you can quickly type the URL and feel free here it's a rather long one. If you can't get it, everyone will be getting an email after the show's over saying thank you for attending and please go here click on this link to get to the evaluation. And it really does like it helps us show who we're reaching across the nation. But also it helps me with feedback of what I'm doing is hitting home. And again, it helps demonstrate what we're doing because the National Library of Medicine has to answer to NIH, who has to answer to Congress. We appreciate it. We'll know that these are useful sources and that these organizations are things that need to keep being supported. Exactly. So that's where I appreciate it a lot if you can do that. And again, please be honest. And if there's comments, there's a box there where you can save. And that can also be a place although you'd have to include your contact information. If you really wanted to do it, you could put it in the comment box and say, hey, I would like more follow up on this. But again, you're welcome to email me. But the evaluation itself by default is anonymous. Correct. So that's part of it too. That's where I want you to be as honest as you want. There's something different that could be done? Yeah. And if you want Annette to come back here and talk about something that's specifically more in-depth, you saw to come back in a couple slides, let her know that. We'll schedule more things. This was a session, actually, I didn't say at the beginning, that you had done somewhere else that I saw it on. One of the... I had done it... ...it's Shreveganza? Yeah, the training in Shreveganza for the Southeast Library system here. I haven't done so many things this... What was funny is because Todd Schlecti from Cells had asked me to do it after he saw the presentation done by one of my colleagues who's at the Greater Midwest Region out of... based out of Iowa, the University of Iowa, and she had done it for the Iowa Library Association last year, and he was at that conference and said, hey, can we do something like this here for this population? And so that's the part is... and she shared her slides with me and I tweaked it a little bit for the populations I knew going on there and for here. So it's been wonderful. And out of Jacqueline's presentation from GMR, we have this one. So I also appreciate what we do around the region. Absolutely, yeah. So we're always looking for new things here to bring on the show, too, because we do have, like I just mentioned, the training Shreveganza in-person sessions, our state conference, but for people who can't get to those, that's why we and NLM do all these online options for you as well. So we'll put it wherever. All right. Well, it doesn't look like any urgent questions have been typed in while I've been chatting, so that's fine. But if you do have any, you know where to find them at. She's right up at Omaha, and she can answer any of your questions about this. So we'll wrap it up for today's show. As we said, you will be getting an email within the hour. It's an automated email about, thank you for attending. Here's your official notice that you get credit for attending this session and the link to the evaluation. So please do submit that. Let's see, let's get into this. So that will wrap it up for today's show. I'm going to go over here. As you can just help me on it, just type in Encompass Live, and we will get to... I got it. This is what happens when I'm typing off the inside. Here we go. And if you don't pull it up, Encompass Live is actually the only thing so far called that on the Internet. Yes. So if you just Google Encompass and Encompass Live, you'll come across our page. But this is our website off the Library Commissions page. We have our upcoming sessions, but our archives are right here, linked underneath. So this is where today's show will be listed. Probably by the end of the day today, I'll have it all processed through and uploaded onto YouTube. This was last week's recording. I have her slides, so we'll post those up as well. And then I'll put in a few links to the main things that she mentioned that you were demoing, the PubMed and the Medline. Those two links up to everything. So I'll be on there. Everyone who attended here today or registered for today's show, I will send you an email automatically letting you know that it's there too. So go there and look for that. I hope you join us next week when our topic is from Collections to Commons, How We Turn Stacks to Student Spaces at UNL. A few years ago, actually, 2014, and they just opened in 2014, opened in 2016, University of Nebraska-Lincoln switched up a whole bunch of their space to have a learning commons. And it was a huge project. And this is one that I also saw at a previous, let me last year, session somewhere. So some of the people from UNL will be over here with us next week to talk about how they pulled it off and all the changes going on over there. And how things been going since. It's been a little over a year now since it's actually officially open. So we'll see how things have been going. So please do register for that. And for any of our other upcoming shows, we've got all the July dates in here. August sessions are being worked on and scheduled and finalized as we speak. So they will be added as well. So keep an eye on our page to see what new things are added. Also we are on Facebook, so if you are a big Facebook user, please do pop over there. Let's see. It's still loading. It needs our header up there. Anyway, I post when new shows are coming up, when recordings are available. This is a reminder as you can see here. Log in right on the fly to today's show. So I'm slowing down Facebook a little. So if you are big on Facebook, give us a like over there and you can keep up on things that we're doing. Let me just close that for a minute. There we go. So other than that, that wraps it up for today's show. Thank you very much for attending. Thank you very much for coming down here and joining us from Omaha. Thank you for the invitation. And we'll see you next time on Encompass Live. Bye.
