Before logging into the Partner Publisher
services websites, we will Login to the
HINARI site using the URL
http://www.who.int/hinari/
You need to enter your HINARI User Name and Password in the
appropriate boxes, then click on the Login button. To have
access to the full text articles, you must properly sign in.
If you do not use the Internet Explorer Web browser, this slide
will not appear (as of 01 April 2014). If you use Internet
Explorer, you will continue to have a two-step login process.
Repeat the Login process on this
2nd page and you will be redirected
to the HINARI Contents page.
Remember - If you fail to use the
Login page, you will have a second
option on the Content sub-page.
Once you are logged in to the HINARI
Content page, access PubMed by clicking on
Search inside HINARI full-text using PubMed.
To access the History option, click
on the Advanced Search option.
We will discuss History, which is a
feature of the Advanced Search Builder
option. Access to Advanced Search is
from the initial PubMed page or the
Search Results page.
Note that Search History will be lost
after 8 hours and the maximum number
of searches is 100.
To build a search using History, begin by putting
in your broadest search term. In this example,
we will use treatment as our initial search term.
The result for the treatment search is
over 8 million articles. This can be
viewed as a search set by clicking on
the Advanced (History) page.
On the Advanced Search Builder (History) page,
our first search is given a set number identified by
the # symbol - in this example it is #1. On the
right side of the page, the number of articles is
shown under the Items found column. In this
case, a total of over 8 million citations. We will
return to PubMed Home by clicking on the
hypertext link.
Note that the numbers for your searches may
vary depending if you have previously searched
that day in PubMed.
We now have searched for malaria as a second
search term and have 68106 citations. As in the
previous result, the malaria search also can be viewed
by returning to the Advanced (History) page.
We now will click on Add for #1 AND #2
and click on Search - to create the
combined result for the two search terms
– treatment AND malaria. These two
search terms are added to the Builder.
The search has narrowed the results
down further to 32754 articles. Click
on the Advanced link to return to the
Advanced Search (History) page.
We now combine the latest search (#3) with the
geographic term Africa by adding both terms in
the Builder boxes and clicking on Search.
You also can click on Add for #3 and then add
Africa to the next line of the Builder.
Search #4 now is treatment AND
malaria AND Africa with a result of
8651 citations. Next we will open the
searches’ Summary display setting
by clicking on the Items Found #.
Note: to clear these searches, click
on Clear History button.
This is the Summary display for
the combined #4 search.
We now will proceed to the
Advanced Search slides.
Advanced Search
We now will use Advanced Search
Builder option. Access to Advanced
is from the initial PubMed page or
the Search Results page.
In the Advanced Search Builder, we have
opened the All Fields drop down menu. You
can add terms in all or specific fields using
the AND, OR, NOT Boolean operators.
We have added the Text Words tuberculosis
and drug resistance to the Builder search
boxes. We have used the AND Boolean
operator. When entered, these search terms
are displayed in the box above the Builder.
Note that you can display or hide
the Index list. We have displayed
the initial list of index terms for
tuberculosis. You can enter any of
these terms into the search box.
We now will click on the MeSH
Terms option in the Builder drop
down menu and insert the term
developing countries into the search
box. We will run the Search.
The results of the tuberculosis AND drug resistance
AND developing countries search are 130 citations.
To return to Advanced Search, click on the hypertext
link below the PubMed Search box.
Note, in the Filter your results list, that there are 32
Free Full Text and 51 HINARI citations.
We have returned to the Advanced Search Builder
page. Note that the Search History has been
activated and lists the recently completed search
as #1. You can return to the Summary display of
the search results by clicking on the Items Found #.
For further information and training on Advanced
Search, go to the PubMed Search Clinic: Building
a PubMed Search
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/bsd/disted/clinics/build.html
From this page, you can view a 30 minute clinic
recording. It also contains several frequently
asked Questions and Answers. Note that this
Clinic is for general PubMed not HINARI/PubMed.
We now will review accessing
full-text articles using
HINARI/PubMed. Enter the
search hypertension AND
developing countries.
The results for this search are
displayed in the Summary format
with a total of 1632 citations.
We will change the Format
Display Settings to Abstract
and Items per page to 50
and click on Apply.
From the Abstract display, links to full text
publishers resources are shown at the bottom of
the record. In most cases, either icon will work.
When you arrive at the article on the publishers’ site, you
can confirm access via the address or url search box of
the web browser. If properly authenticated, you will see a
URL that begins with: hinari-gw.who.int/whalecommwww..
In this example, you would click on Full Text (PDF) - to
save a copy of the article.
This is the link to the full text
PDF of this specific article.
Linking to full text 4
Full-text Article Access Problems
HINARI/PubMed access to the full-text articles is
based on PubMed’s ‘Link Out’ software. These
links are noted with the publishers' or HINARI icons
–at the bottom of each record. In some cases, the
link does not give you access to the full-text article
and you must ‘trouble-shoot.’
Another option for accessing the full-text article is
to use the PubMed ID #. In HINARI/PubMed,
enter the ID number in the search box. The
abstract version will be displayed. If this article is
a free full text or HINARI article, the icon/link will
be in the top right corner of the page.
Access problems can be caused by:
1) failure to properly LOGIN with the institution's User Name/Password
2) technical problems at the Publisher's website
3) or problems with local systems (configuration of user institution’s
firewall, configuration of browser)
4) Titles not included in publishers’ offer
Consequently, you may see a message on the Publisher‘ denying
access and requesting LOGIN or payment for the specific article.
Note: Your HINARI institutional ‘User Name/Password’ will NOT work.
To confirm that you have used the institutional User Name and
Password correctly, check that you have the ‘Logged in from’
message.
This also is confirmed in the address or URL search box of the
web browser. If properly ‘authenticated’, you will see a URL that
begins with: hinarilogin.research4life.org/... url
Institutional Firewall Problems
In this situation, a proxy server is blocked by the
institution’s firewall. Please check with your
computer department to make sure the
institution’s firewall does not block proxy servers.
The computer system must be able to access
HINARI’s proxy server. Insure that you are
permitted access to the IP 158.232.242.4
through your institution’s firewall. Otherwise, you
will not be able to login properly and access
HINARI’s full-text articles.
NOTE: If you have problems when you are accessing a full-text
journal from HINARI/PubMed (not via the links from the principal
HINARI page), there is one other step to check.
If you are unable to access an article from a journal via the ‘Link
Out’ icons in HINARI/PubMed, double check this by going to the
title in the Journals collection A-Z list and also verify the years of
volumes available.
When viewing any page of the Journals collection A-Z list, the green box
notes if your institution has access to the contents of the journal. The ! notes
the titles not included in the publishers’ offer to your institution.
If you are denied access to a full-text article despite the green box, follow
the instructions in the next slide. Note that the ‘years of volumes’ available
are listed after the journal title.
This is the example of the screen capture that was
attached to the email message for [email protected]
For the JEM article, it noted that This item requires a
subscription. The publisher requested that the user
Sign in (User Name and Password for individual
subscription) or Purchase Short-Term Access.
Note: this screen capture includes the URL of the
journal. This information is invaluable to the HINARI
staff who will try to resolve the access problem.
You can create a screen capture by clicking on the
Print Screen key while viewing the webpage of the
journal. Then paste (edit/paste or control/v) the
material into a word processing document and send
as an attachment.
Double check that you have completed the HINARI
LOGIN. If this is not the problem, notify HINARI staff
([email protected]) so that they can communicate with the
Publisher and resolve the problem. This example is an
email received from a HINARI user in Uganda.
Note: make sure you include your institutional User Name,
the name of the journal(s) and other details. Also include a
screen capture that contains the URL (Internet address) of
the journal (seen next slide).
This additional screen capture notes that the journal is listed
on the J page of the Journals collection A-Z list, that the
requested journal issue is available and that, by the green
box, the institution should have access to the journal.
If the HINARI authentication system had worked properly,
the user would have had access to the journal article.
This is the end of Module 4 Part 3. Updated 2014 01
