E-databases
• Bibliographic Databases
(Reference Databases / Citation Databases / Abstract Databases)
– An electronic version of a catalog or index.
– A bibliographic database allows the user to identify
publications by author, title, subject, or other search
terms.
– It generally provides at least a full citation to the item,
and often other information such as abstracts and
assigned subject headings.

Web of Science
• Upper, lower, or mixed case finds the same results
– DNA, dna, Dna
• Use wildcards to search for variants of words
– Enzym*, wom?n, vapo$r
• Separate two or more terms by boolean operators AND, OR,
SAME, NOT
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
ozone AND pollut*
Corn OR maize
fac sci SAME mahidol
(same subfield)
Monoxide NOT carbon
Iron OR steel AND rust
(AND has precedence over OR)
(iron OR steel) AND rust
(nitrogen OR potassium) SAME fertilizer*
(same sentence)

Wildcards and Truncation
• The asterisk (*), question mark (?), and dollar sign ($) are called
wildcards because they can be included in a search term to
represent unknown characters.
• The asterisk (*) represents any group of characters, including
no characters.
Ex.
biolog*
(biology, biologists, biological)
• The question mark (?) represents any single character.
Ex.
en?oblast*
(endoblast, entoblasts)
• The dollar sign ($) represents one character or no characters.
Ex.
Hof$man*
(Hofman, Hoffman, Hoffmann)

Google Scholar
• Automatic AND
– vitamin c common cold = vitamin c AND common cold
– Friedman cloning
= author:friedman AND cloning
• + operator makes sure your results include common words, letters,
numbers that Google’s search technology generally ignores
– World War +I
• - operator excludes all results that include this search term
– Flowers –Author:flowers
• Phrase search only returns results that include this exact phrase
– “as you like it”
• OR operator returns results that include either of your search terms
– RNAi OR “RNA interference”

LIBRARY
E-Books (cont.)
• Google Print
http://print.google.com
– Google works with publishers and libraries to create a
comprehensive, searchable, virtual card catalog of all
books in all languages that helps users discover new
books, and publishers find new readers.
– Though every page becomes searchable, how much of the
book a user can actually read is determined by its
copyright status.
– If the book is in the public domain, users can view all of
the pages. If the book is potentially still in copyright, they
show only three samples where the keyword appears.
– If a publisher submits the book into Google Print, users
can view more of that book.

Considering the quality research publications
• What are Impact Factors ?
– Journal Impact Factor is from Journal Citation Report (JCR),
a product of Thomson ISI (Institute for Scientific
Information).
– JCR provides quantitative tools for ranking, evaluating,
categorizing, and comparing journals.
– The impact factor is one of these; it is a measure of the
frequency with which the "average article" in a journal has
been cited in a particular year or period.
– More details are described in the Stang library website
http://stang.sc.mahidol.ac.th/text/if.htm
http://stang.sc.mahidol.ac.th
STANG

Calculation
The Impact Factor is generally calculated based on a 3 year period.
For example, the 2004 Impact factor for a journal would be
calculated as follows:
A=
Number of times articles published in 2001-2002
were cited in tracked journals during 2003
B=
Number of articles published in 2001-2002
2003 Impact Factor = A / B

ENDNOTE
Bibliographic Management Software
/ Citation Manager
• With EndNote software you can create a personalised
database of references.
• You can type the references yourself or import them from
a database.
• You can then create a bibliography for your thesis,
assignment or journal article in the citation style you
require.
