NIH Public Access Policy #1: Are you in compliance?
This video explains the NIH Public Access Policy that went to effect in 2008, and will be strictly enforced starting July 1, 2013. Under this policy, if a peer-reviewed journal article accepted for publication on or after April 7, 2008 arises from an NIH grant, the final peer-reviewed manuscript of the article must be deposited to NIH’s PubMed Central upon acceptance for publication and must be made available to the public no later than 12 months following publication. This video demonstrates the "My Bibliography" feature of the "My NCBI" account linked with your "eRA Commons" account, which can be used to check the comp...

Systematic Approaches to Searching the Health Science Literature #3: Preparing for a Systematic Search
This video demonstrates a number of tasks reviewers usually do before performing a full-scale systematic search. For example, a preliminary search is usually conducted to find out if anyone else has done a review on the topic before. Reviewers also do "scoping" searches or "pearl-growing" searches to better understand existing primary studies on the topic. These techniques also help develop a list of search terms that can be used in the full-scale search. Finally this video gives examples of online databases, which reviewers may search depending on the subjects of their topics.View Tutorial Full Size (9 min 36 sec)Download...

Systematic Approaches to Searching the Health Science Literature #1: Introduction
A solid literature search is critical to writing a scientific article. If you are writing any type of review, a systematic literature search is central to the validity of your conclusion. This series of tutorials cover the fundamental concepts and general procedure of searching the health science literature in a systematic manner. They will mainly focus on systematic searches required by a "systematic review". If you are not writing a "systematic review", you may not need to take every single step as detailed in the following videos, but no matter what type of review you decide to write, having a systematic approach to you...

Reference Syncing in EndNote X6
Reference syncing is one of the most anticipated features of EndNote X6. It allows you to synchronize the references in your desktop EndNote library with those in your EndNote Web account. It also makes it possible to keep multiple EndNote desktop libraries in sync via EndNote Web. In this tutorial, I demonstrate the syncing feature and a few things you should pay attention to when using this feature.View Tutorial Full Size (9 min 53 sec)Download tutorial (MP4 file, 24.34MB) (Source: Tutorials from the Yale Medical Library)

Creating Custom Import Filters and Connection Files in EndNote
You can modify the import filters and connections files that ship with EndNote to make it work better for you. This tutorial demonstrates how to do that using the PubMed import filter and connection file as examples. Please note that the examples used in this video only apply to new, empty EndNote libraries, EndNote libraries with an empty journal term list, or EndNote libraries with a clean, full journal term list that ships with EndNote. If you have been managing an EndNote library for a long time, you will need to clean up your existing journal term list before following the examples in the video.View Tutorial Full Size...

Sharing Your EndNote References Via EndNote Web
EndNote Web is another citation management product by Thomson Reuters ISI. It is web-based and has most of the commonly-used functions of the desktop EndNote. It is also integrated into the desktop EndNote so that you can transfer references between desktop EndNote and EndNote Web, and share them via EndNote Web. This tutorial demonstrates how to transfer your desktop EndNote references to EndNote Web and share them with other EndNote Web users. EndNote X6 brings "syncing" feature, which we will take a look at in another video.View Tutorial Full Size (5 min 00 sec)Download tutorial (MP4 file, 8.69MB) (Source: Tutorials fro...
