There is the department library: Psychology & Philosophy Library in the Psychology Building (7 George Square) BOOK REFERENCE Bond T.

On the library catalogue or ejournal web pages look for the: Author (or editor) of the whole book Title of the whole book The rest of the information helps you decide if what the library has is exactly the same book and which chapter or pages of the book to read.

On the library catalogue or ejournal web pages look for the: Journal title The rest of the information helps you decide if the library has the issue of the journal you need and where in that issue to find the article you want to read. E-journals In the e-journal pages you can search, browse or look at subject groupings. The library catalogue takes you to the journal or a page from which to choose the link you need.

Library catalogue and e-journal pages tell you what journals we have, eg Aging and Mental Health But, not who has published what in those journals, eg Ho’s article ‘A peer counselling program for the elderly with depression living in the community in 2007. Bibliographic (or abstracting and indexing (A&I)) databases are designed to do this. They: • • Contain information about the contents of a range of publications (abstracts, journal articles, book chapters, reports and standards). Often subject specific. Perform sophisticated searches with strong search functions N.B. Bibliographic databases provide references/citations for material and often abstracts or summaries as well but only link out to full-text Databases for Reviewing the Literature AMED, ASSIA, Sociological Abstracts, Social Services Abstracts CINAHL Plus – Information on articles from thousands of nursing journals. PsycINFO – references to articles from thousands of psychology and related journals, conference proceedings, etc. MEDLINE – National Library of Medicine’s database of articles from thousands of medicine and related journals and other academic literature. Where to find (out about) databases A-Z list and lists by subject http://www.ed.ac.uk/is/databases-subjects Searcher – the default tab Library catalogue plus databases etc. Good for finding academic literature for essays and reports. Default limit set to what you can read now. Reading the Full-text • Try any links which seem as if they will give you full-text. • Treat like a normal reference and use the library catalogue Because we may have what you want: • online from a different site • In print Inter-Library Loan (ILL) for material we don’t have at all What information do you need? Think what you need to read about and identify the major subjects areas. • Think of words and phrases associated with these major subjects. Including: • acronyms, synonyms and alternative spellings. • formal and informal terms (myocardial infarction and heart attack) • broader and also more specific terms Citing References There is reference management software which may help, eg EndNote, RefMan EndNote Online – http://myendnoteweb.com [have to register yourself] Printing and photocopying paid via your Print account which you can top up via the machines, asking library staff and via MyEd’s Online Print Credit channel.
