OvidSP: Things to Remember…

Basic Search tab
– Search preference is for using natural language or entering a full
query
– Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a ‘quick and relevant’
search - designed to find the relevant results, not all results

Anything less than a 4 star result is probably not relevant so do NOT
get caught up in the number or results returned (we only bring back
a target of 500)
– Beyond a search for the Novice/Google user, view it as another
tool you have to help you with your daily job


Great for Validation

Great for Discovery

Better Multi-file Searching
