Quick Search
If you have a general idea about the types of citations you would like to find, you can enter a few key terms separated by spaces into the Quick Search box, and click "Search" to view the results. You can also indicate if you only want to search records in the database that belong to a particular group (for example: Interprofessional Literature) by clicking the checkbox next to the group's name.

Example 1: Evaluation
Example 2: Reflection and Practice

Advanced Search
For an Advanced Search, you can specify that you only want to search particular fields, such as Authors, Keywords, and Titles by selecting the option in the dropdown menu to the left of the text boxes. You can also limit your search to records published between certain years by using the "Between" dropdown lists to specify the date range. When searching for Authors, it is best to enter just the last name, or use the Browse feature described below to see all articles written by a particular author.

Example:
Author: Smith
and Keyword: Prescribing
Between 2003 and 2004

 

Wildcards and Quotation Marks

Wildcards are automatically added to the end of a word entered in a search. For instance, if the word 'child' is entered, the following will also be searched: child's, children, children's, etc.

If you want to search for a particular phrase you can place quotation marks around the search terms to make it more precise. For example, searching for "needs assessment" will find instances of the two terms together as a phrase, while a search for the two words without quotation marks will return results where each of the words are found in a record individually.

 

Search History

Any searches that have been conducted in the current session will be shown in the Current Session Search History section. This list of previous searches includes:
1. whether a search conducted was Quick or Advanced,
2. what terms were searched for, and
3. whether it was limited to a particular group or date range.
Results from previous searches may be viewed by clicking on the "View Results" option next to the particular search strategy. The current Search History is maintained until the RDRB window is closed.

 

Browsing

Using the Browse feature, you are able to view records that have similar attributes. To do this, click on "Journal", "Keyword" or "Author" at the top of the Browse page, and select one of the letters listed below. A list of all terms or names within the particular section that begin with the chosen letter are listed. Any of these terms may be clicked to view a list of records that share that term.

 

Results

50 search results are displayed on each page, and the total number of results is stated at the top of the page. If there are multiple pages of results, you can navigate through them using "Previous", "Next", or by clicking on the page number you wish to jump to.

For more information about a particular result, you can click on "Complete Reference", which will bring you to a page showing the full record information including Group, Authors, Title, and Keywords, if available. Any underlined Authors and Keywords on this page can be clicked on, and will bring you to a list of records that also contain the particular name or term. If you would like to view an abstract, clicking on "Link to Abstract" from within the full record information page, or "Abstract (link)" from the search results page will open a new window with the abstract, if one is available.

 

Selecting Results

You can select specific results by clicking on the checkbox next to them. If you wish to select all of the results on a page, you can click on Select: "All", and if you want to select all results in the set, then click where it says "Click here for all results". If you wish to deselect all results, click on Select: "none". Please note that you may only select individual results on the page you are viewing. Moving to another page within the results will automatically erase any prior selections you have made.

 

Holding Results

You can select records to store within Current Session Held Citations by selecting results (as above) and clicking on the "Hold Citations" button at the top or bottom of a search results page. You can also select one record to hold at a time by clicking the "Hold Citations" button from within the Complete Reference page. If you select the same result to hold more than once, only one copy of the record will be held. If you wish to remove any records from this list, select them and click the "Remove Citations" button. Current Session Held Citations is a good place to store any records you are interested in from any of your searches until you are ready to save, print, e-mail or export them. The current list of citations in Held Citations is maintained until the RDRB window is closed.

Printing Results

Clicking the "Printer Friendly Version" button in both the Search Results and Current Session Held Citations pages will display the current page of results in a format that is easily printed. This list can then be sent to your printer using your standard way of printing from a browser window (for example, if you are using Internet Explorer, this would be File - Print). To return to the RDRB results view, click on "Return to normal view" from the top of the Printer Friendly Version page. Full individual records may also be printed by clicking on the "Printer Friendly Version" button from the Complete Reference page.

 

Exporting Results

Using the "Save to…" dropdown box in both the Search Results and Current Session Held Citations pages, you are able to export selected results in a number of different ways. There are 3 options for Exporting Results:

1. (Save To) My Computer
Selecting "My Computer" will save the citations of your selected results in .txt format for easy printing or formatting into a bibliography.

2. (Save To) E-mail
Clicking on "E-mail" will display fields for you to enter "to" and "from" e-mail addresses, as well as a box for you to enter a short message to the recipient. After clicking "Send", a popup will appear to tell you that the message has been sent. Selected citations are then sent to the recipient e-mail address in the body of an e-mail message, with the address entered in the "From" e-mail field appearing as the sender. Included with each saved or e-mailed citation is a unique URL for the specific record which can be used to view the full record information.

3. (Save To) Reference Manager / EndNote or RefWorks
Clicking on "RefManager/EndNote" will save the selected citations in .ris format for importing into Reference Manager. "RefWorks (Direct)" will automatically import citations into RefWorks if a RefWorks session is open, or citations may be saved in the correct format for later importing into RefWorks by selecting "RefWorks (File)". Full individual citations may also be saved, e-mailed or exported by clicking on the appropriate option from the Complete Reference page.
