To find books by title, click on the appropriate
Books collection alphabetical letter.
Note that there is a View complete list of
books option although this drop down menu
does not have hypertext links to the specific
titles. You will need to go back to the Books
collection A-Z list to open any e-books.
Now opened is the O list from the Books
collection A-Z list. This example is for an
institution where the titles are included
in the publishers’ offer.
We now have opened is the O list from the Books
collection A-Z list - for an institution where many
titles are not included in the publishers’ offer.
Note that there are only 2 items in the Accessible
Content list. In the All Items display option, most
of the titles will have the white box with the
exclamation point.
The Oxford Textbook of Medicine is one of the
foremost international textbooks of internal medicine.
It provides practical guidance on the clinical
management and prevention of disease, with indepth coverage of the traditional specialty areas.
Scroll down this page to the ‘expandable’ table of
contents that details the contents of each topic.
Also included in the Reference Sources listing
are numerous psychiatry/psychology related
full-text resources. We have opened the
American Psychiatric Association Practice
Guidelines tool that is searchable by keyword
and broad subject categories.
From the HINARI Content page, you
also can open the Search inside
HINARI full-text through database
and article searching, Reference
sources and Free collections lists.
Note: Many of these resources are
underutilized by HINARI users as
most individuals concentrate on
obtaining full-text journal articles.
Via clicking on the Database and article
searching link, we have opened the Browse
databases A-Z list.
Similar to other access points, there are the
Accessible Content and All Items listings
that depend on the Publishers’ exclusions.
We have opened the initial page of Scopus (Elsevier), a large abstract and
citation database of peer-reviewed literature and quality web sources with
smart tools to track and analyze research.
Being from a HINARI registered institution, and having logged into HINARI,
you will be able to use these resources from various commercial publishers.
CINAHL (EBSCO) is another resource from the
Databases and (Bibliographic) Indexes menu. It
provides indexing for 2,960 journals and can be
searched for information on nursing, biomedicine,
health sciences librarianship, alternative/
complementary medicine, consumer health and
17 allied health disciplines. Via HINARI, many of
these journals can be accessed.
A third resource from the Databases and (Bibliographic)
Indexes menu is Scirus. It is a searchable database to over
370 million scientific items including journal content,
scientists' homepages, courseware, pre-print server material,
patents and institutional repository and website
information. It also contains numerous SciTopics pages on
medicine and biochemistry, genetics and molecular biology.
Now we have clicked on the
Reference Sources link and opened
the Browse reference sources A-Z list.
Many of these resources contain fulltext information on a variety of topics.
Cochrane Library contains high quality , independent
evidence for health care decision making. It includes
numerous access options including via keyword, MeSH terms
and category listings. Cochrane Library is one of 3 sources of
information on evidence-based practice in HINARI.
The final Reference Sources resource we will look at is the
EndNoteWeb (Thomson Scientific). It is a reference
management software package used to manage bibliographies
and references when writing essays and articles. This is
invaluable for researchers and post-graduate students.
From the Free Collections drop down
menu, you can access other free e-journal
gateways and be able to obtain full-text
articles. We will examine one of these –
Highwire Free to Developing Economies.
This is the HighWire Press initial page. From this
site, we can locate articles or journal titles or
subjects and set up an email alert.
HighWire Press 3
The Free Access to Developing Economies link is
located on the initial page. Also of interest is the
Free full-text content link.
There is a link to both pages in the Other Free
Collections drop down menu on HINARI’s Full-text
Journals, databases and other resources page.
Note: You can access the HighWire Press
full text articles since this publisher
identifies computer (IP) addresses from
eligible countries. This is the ONLY
exception to not needing to use your
institution’s User Name and Password.
You now have entered the Free
Access to Developing Economies list
of HighWire Press.
As noted, the access is based on the
computer's IP Address and you can
go directly to the site using the url.
Within HighWire Press, we have
entered the Free Online Full-Text
Articles page.
HighWire Press 4
Note that some journals are a free
site and others have free articles after
a set period of time.
The HINARI eligible country access is
a different mix of titles.
We have accessed the Current Issue of
the American Journal of Epidemiology
with the Table of Contents and, for
articles, full Text (HTML) and PDF
options to specific articles plus an
internal keyword search engine.
The Free Collection menu includes
FreeBooks4Doctors, a website that has links to
365 full-text books on the Internet. This gateway
is searchable by keyword, topic or language.
Our final Free Collection resource to view is PubMed
Central, a free digital archive of life sciences journals
created by the U.S. National Institutes of Health. This
resource can be searched via a keyword search
engine or journal title.

HINARI –
Accessing Articles:
Problems and Solutions
(Appendix 1)
Full-text Article Access Problems
Using the Journals collection A-Z list, we are
attempting to access a full-text article from
the Blood.
Although HINARI users should have access
to this journal, we will use this as an example
of ‘what could go wrong.’
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. Updated 2012 10
We now will discuss one other
potential access problem. This is in
HINARI/PubMed searches. If you
use the Abstract format from the
Display Setting, the links to full-text
articles will be displayed.
PubMed uses the ‘Link Out’ software to access
the full text articles. If this does not work
properly, you will not have access to the article
and be asked enter an individual user name and
password or pay a fee.
Follow the same procedures listed in the
previous slides. At times, an article will not be
accessible from HINARI/PubMed but is available
from the Journals collection A- Z list.

HINARI –
Printing, Copying, Saving and
Emailing Articles:
Problems and Solutions
(Appendix 2)
Examples from:
• Elsevier – Science Direct
• Nature Publishing
• HighWire Press
We will review how to 'print, copy, save or email articles' by looking at the options
from three principal HINARI publishers. These issues can be complicated as they
often also are 'Access' problems.
Note: If you cannot 'access' a full-text article, see the 'HINARI Access Problems and
Solutions' document at:
www.who.int/hinari/training/HINARIaccessproblemsandsolutions/en/index.html
In the initial example, we have accessed the table of contents page of a current
issue of the Lancet via the Elsevier Science – Science Direct website. From
this page, you can access PDF files, Email Articles or Download PDFs plus, if
you click on the Title, you access the html version of the article that will be
'read' by your Web Browser.
Note: in most cases, the HINARI Partner Publishers will have similar options for
obtaining a copy of the full-text article.
`
We have accessed the HTML/full-text version of the article that is
displayed by the Web browser. Also from this page, you can go to the
PDF version or the E-mail Article option.
The E-mail Article option will include a link to the article but not the full
text. You will view messages such as:
“If you have a User Name & Password, you may already have access to this article. Please
login below' and 'If you do not have a User Name and Password, click the 'Register to
Purchase' button below to purchase this article.” (To access the full-text of this article, you
will need to LOGIN to HINARI and locate the required issue from the A-Z 'Find journals by
title' list.)
Note: The HTML version will include the hypertext links to footnotes
and other articles and you can copy/paste from this option. The PDF
version appears similar to a print copy. Once downloaded, you cannot
copy/paste from this option.
We have accessed the PDF version of the editorial titled Essential
medicines pricing-reform needed. There are two useful options for
obtaining a copy of this article:
1) Print (click to print this PDF file or pages from it)
2) Save (click to save this article to your computer or another location)
We have clicked on the Print
option and, in this case, the
commands for a Canon
IP1600 printer appear.
We have chosen the Save option. We have been directed
to the hard drive of the computer (c:documents/HINARI/).
Another option would be to send the file to a flash drive or
floppy disk that you have inserted into the computer. In
either case, you will be able to save the PDF file and view
the article at another time using Adobe Reader software..
We now will view some 'problems' when attempting to
obtain a copy of an article plus discuss several options.
In Nature, we have accessed an editorial titled 'Science
Restored.' You can note the similar functions:
1) Download PDF
2) Send to a friend
Reminder – the Send to a friend option will not result in
access to the fulltext article.
We have attempted to access the PDF file and have
come up with a blank page. Plus there appear to be
no options/button to return to`the previous page.
What options do we have since we cannot access
the PDF file in order to print it?
`
We have two ways to return to the article:
1) hold down the ALT key and click on the left arrow key
2) return to HINARI via one of the tabs in Web browser. By displaying
the History function, we can see the link to the PDF file (457511b.pdf)
and also the HTML/full-text article (Science restored:Article:Nature).
Either way, we should be able to return to the article in Nature and
'save' it using the other options.
We now will look at an article from the
`
HighWire
Press American Journal of
Epidemiology that is included in the 'Free
Access to Developing Economies' list.
We have accessed a recent volume of the
American Journal of Epidemiology. Note
that there is a FREE Full Text (PDF) option
for copying the article. We now will discuss
'emergency' options for WHEN the PDF file
cannot be opened and copied.
One of the options is to create a screen capture of the
text from what is displayed by the Web browser. This
example has been transferred to a MS Word
document. To obtain the complete article, you will
need to make a number of screen captures. Also the
blue hypertext links will not function.
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 or NotePad
and save the file on your computer or flash drive.
In this final 'emergency' option starting from what is displayed by the
Web browser, we have highlighted (click left mouse cursor and, to
include the text, drag the mouse over the document). The material will
become highlighted in blue and can be copied (edit/copy or control/c).
Again, you will have to repeat the process several times. This method
can result in extra material being copied .
To save the highlighted material, again paste (edit/paste or control/v) the material
into a Word Processing or NotePad file and save the document to your computer or
flash drive.
Remember that these two 'copying emergencies' methods are used when the
publisher's options (save, print or email) are not available. Reminder - If you cannot
'access' a full-text article, see the 'Access Problems and Solutions' document at:
www.who.int/hinari/training/HINARIaccessproblemsandsolutions/en/index.html
