Logging on to HINARI 1 Before logging into Pub. Med, we can Login to the HINARI website using the URL http: //www. who. int/hinari/

Logging into HINARI 2 You need to enter your HINARI User Name and Password in the appropriate boxes, then click on the Login button. Note: If you do not properly sign on, you do not have access to full text articles.

Remember - if you fail to use the Login page, you have a second option on the Full text journals, databases, and other resources sub-page.

Main HINARI webpage Once you are logged in from the main HINARI webpage, access Pub. Med by clicking on Search HINARI journal articles through Pub. Med (Medline).

The Search box on Pub. Med is active. Place your search statement in the box. In this example, we enter a search for malaria infections AND Africa into the Search or query box. To execute the query, click on the Search button.

Results of the search are displayed in the main body of the page in Summary Format, 20 Items per Page and Recently Added Sort by options. This is the default setting when you complete a search. Note the two additional filters for Free Full Text and HINARI articles. These have been created in the HINARI/Pub. Med searches saved in My NCBI (see module 4. 5). Of the 3562 articles, 1471 are available via the HINARI filter and 1091 with Free full text filter ( there are some overlaps).

Also note the additional hypertext link for Free article. By clicking on this link, you will be redirected to the Abstract display and be able to access the full text.

Note the Abstract Format with 20 Items per page and the Recently Added Sort by options are displayed in the Display Settings line above the abstract. Note the Free Full Text and HINARI Filters. We now will click on the HINARI one.

After clicking on the HINARI filter in the Abstract display, a list of all the HINARI articles appears with the HINARI icon. By clicking on this icon, the full-text article will display. The Free Full Text filter will work in the same way. Note that some articles will have both the HINARI and Free Full Text icons in the Abstract display.

We have accessed the full-text article using the HINARI icon from the Abstract display. Note that you can download the article as a PDF or XML file or print the document. Remember, you must be properly signed into HINARI to get access to the full-text articles.

We now view the Display Settings drop down menu for the Summary Format, 200 Items per Page and Recently Added Sort by options. To activate, click on the Apply box.

The larger listing of citations is useful in low-bandwidth situations.

You must place check marks in the boxes to the left of the citations that you wish to send to File, Collections, Order, Clipboard and E-mail options. If you do not place check marks in the boxes, the entire search will be sent to the option you choose. Note how Pub. Med lists the # of citations you have checked.

From the Send To drop down menu, we will click on Create File, with the Abstract and Recently Added options. This will be a document to be downloaded from your Web Browser.

The pubmed_results has displayed as a. txt file at the bottom of this web browser. We will click on the File and display it using Note. Pad. Note: in other web browsers, this will display in different places.

We now view the text from a downloaded. txt file in Notepad. You can save this file to the C: / drive or a flash drive or a CD-Rom. Once saved, you can print the document.

From the Send To drop down menu, we have selected to E-mail a file, with the Summary and Recently added options. This will be a document to be sent to the e-mail address you entered as the recipient.

` In the Display Settings, a green Item in clipboard message is noted for all the items you have selected. Also note the number of records that has been sent to the Clipboard.

To remove items from the Clipboard, click on Clipboard. The Pub. Med search will re-appear and, using the green hypertext links, you can Remove all items or Remove from clipboard individual citations. In this case, we will Remove all items.

The green message notes that 5 items have been removed from the Clipboard. The green message notes that 500 items were deleted from the Clipboard. This is the end of Module 4 Part 1.
