 Failure to access the full text articles
Before logging into the Partner Publisher
services websites, we will Login to the
HINARI site using the URL
http://www.who.int/hinari/
We will need to enter our 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.
Since the migration to a new authentication server (Jan. 2014),
we strongly recommend use of Chrome or Mozilla. If you use
Internet Explorer, you will need to login twice.
If you are using Internet Explorer,
repeat the Login process on this 2nd
page and you will be redirected to
the HINARI Contents page.
Once you are logged in to the HINARI
Content page, access PubMed by clicking on
Search inside HINARI full-text using PubMed.
History
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.
Completed is a search for the treatment
with 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 70088 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 33584 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
8866 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 134 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 50 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 #5. 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 1704 citations.
We will change the Format 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: hinarilogin.research4life.org/ Access to
the full-text is as a HTML or PDF file.
This is the link to the full text
PDF of this specific article.

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.’
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
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 pasted on a Word document or ppt that
contains the URL (Internet address) of the journal (seen on
previous 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 the HINARI Basic Course
Module 6
There is a workbook to accompany this part of the
module. It will take you through a live session
covering the topics included in this module.
