1 00:00:04,403 --> 00:00:12,443 As Natasha said, I am Sarah Vaughn. I'm the Manager of Access Services for University Libraries to make it a little adjustment on my screen. 2 00:00:12,443 --> 00:00:23,393 OK, here I go. My department helps provide access to library materials through checking out books and other physical items at the library, 3 00:00:23,393 --> 00:00:32,363 sending those materials to students who are at a distance from campus and scanning materials when possible from our collections. 4 00:00:32,363 --> 00:00:33,323 And, you know, 5 00:00:33,323 --> 00:00:42,863 sharing them electronically and then also getting materials from other libraries when UNC doesn't own or license the stuff that students need. 6 00:00:42,863 --> 00:00:47,453 So I'm going to start you off today with information about how to access those services, 7 00:00:47,453 --> 00:00:54,143 as well as who to contact when you want additional help, either getting materials or doing your research. 8 00:00:54,143 --> 00:01:04,963 So let's start with the library's home page. Here we have the library's home page, the URL is at the bottom there, 9 00:01:04,963 --> 00:01:15,073 but you can also access it from any basically any UNC web page by going to this academics heading and there's a little link to library from there. 10 00:01:15,073 --> 00:01:24,223 So very easy to get to. I'm going to start talking about interlibrary loan first and then we'll talk through a number of different services 11 00:01:24,223 --> 00:01:30,793 related. So interlibrary loan includes multiple systems for sharing materials between libraries. 12 00:01:30,793 --> 00:01:34,063 We can get you books, DVDs, CDs, scores, 13 00:01:34,063 --> 00:01:42,913 kind of whatever the physical stuff you might need from a library that we don't have either from libraries here in Colorado or around the country, 14 00:01:42,913 --> 00:01:49,603 even around the world in certain circumstances. Interlibrary loan for us also includes document delivery, 15 00:01:49,603 --> 00:01:57,313 and that would be providing materials from our own collections to our own patrons or our own students and faculty. 16 00:01:57,313 --> 00:02:02,983 This can include scanning a chapter from a book or an article from a print 17 00:02:02,983 --> 00:02:07,363 journal that we have in our collection and delivering it to you electronically, 18 00:02:07,363 --> 00:02:14,773 rather than making you come in and actually check out the whole book or access that journal. 19 00:02:14,773 --> 00:02:19,963 I feel like I've missed a little something that we make sure now that's good. 20 00:02:19,963 --> 00:02:27,043 Let's start with sort of article searching, because I think that's probably the most common way that people use our interlibrary loan service. 21 00:02:27,043 --> 00:02:33,193 And looking at our UNC web page, I circled the main link to interlibrary loan. 22 00:02:33,193 --> 00:02:40,453 That is one way to get in there. So if you click on that, it will ask for your UNC username and password. 23 00:02:40,453 --> 00:02:43,333 Once you authenticate the very first time you use it, 24 00:02:43,333 --> 00:02:50,983 you'll be asked for a little bit of demographic info and then you can go in and make a book request or an article request or whatever it is you need. 25 00:02:50,983 --> 00:02:55,993 That's one way to do it, but probably the most more more common way is what I'll kind of walk you through today, 26 00:02:55,993 --> 00:03:02,173 and that is that you will find materials you're interested in seeing as you're doing searching on the library's website. 27 00:03:02,173 --> 00:03:06,553 And then we have a way for you to just sort of push a button and say, I want to get this thing. 28 00:03:06,553 --> 00:03:10,543 So let's look at that process a little bit. 29 00:03:10,543 --> 00:03:18,853 So each of these tabs above the search box connects you to a different kind of searching or library resources in different ways. 30 00:03:18,853 --> 00:03:28,603 Summon is one of the most common ways that people do searching, and it's a great way to access, for instance, an article that you have a citation for. 31 00:03:28,603 --> 00:03:32,803 You can just type in the title of that article and see what someone provides. 32 00:03:32,803 --> 00:03:37,633 It may give you results with the exact thing you need in full text and you're all set. 33 00:03:37,633 --> 00:03:43,243 Or it may give you results indicating that here's this article, but we don't actually license it. 34 00:03:43,243 --> 00:03:50,863 And that's one of those situations where you would use interlibrary loan to get the material. 35 00:03:50,863 --> 00:04:00,343 You can also do a general search on your topic. That could be very wide open and you'd get all kinds of results back, including articles. 36 00:04:00,343 --> 00:04:09,343 But it could also have books, ebooks, reference materials, book reviews, lots of different stuff that the library has access to in various ways. 37 00:04:09,343 --> 00:04:14,083 So for that reason, I'm going to show you just a sample search and the kinds of information you can 38 00:04:14,083 --> 00:04:19,993 get from those results and what we would do in terms of getting that for you. 39 00:04:19,993 --> 00:04:28,273 So here I've done a simple search on chocolate because that's my favorite thing and I have three. 40 00:04:28,273 --> 00:04:35,143 I sort of picked three in the middle of the list because they have their different formats or we'll get them in different ways. 41 00:04:35,143 --> 00:04:39,353 The first one is for a book that we actually have here in the library. 42 00:04:39,353 --> 00:04:44,923 And if you were to click on this link, it would take you to our library catalog where you could place a hold on that 43 00:04:44,923 --> 00:04:48,493 book if you're near campus and you want to just come in and check it out. 44 00:04:48,493 --> 00:04:52,363 If you're not near campus, we'll talk about what to do with that a little bit later. 45 00:04:52,363 --> 00:04:58,993 The second one is an e-book, but you could get a similar result for an article that we have full text for. 46 00:04:58,993 --> 00:05:05,803 You could just click on the title of that article, and it would take you hopefully right to the material you're looking for. 47 00:05:05,803 --> 00:05:12,853 But the third option comes back with its number 21 here, chocolate trials. 48 00:05:12,853 --> 00:05:19,363 It says it's a journal article, but the citation is online. So if it says full text there, that means we really haven't. 49 00:05:19,363 --> 00:05:24,763 You can click through and see it. In this case, we just have a citation indexed somewhere, 50 00:05:24,763 --> 00:05:29,293 so we have some information about this article, but we probably don't have the actual article. 51 00:05:29,293 --> 00:05:33,283 So if we click on that change my slide, 52 00:05:33,283 --> 00:05:40,483 we will see a screen like this with more information about that citation, but it doesn't actually take us there. 53 00:05:40,483 --> 00:05:44,503 In order to get it, we would need to request it through Inter Library loan. 54 00:05:44,503 --> 00:05:49,693 So I've circled the the link there where you would say get via interlibrary loan. 55 00:05:49,693 --> 00:05:54,223 Once you click on that, you would again put in your UNC authentication information. 56 00:05:54,223 --> 00:05:59,683 And then the nice thing about coming from someone or another database is that it will fill in. 57 00:05:59,683 --> 00:06:04,453 The citation information for you on your request, so basically, you just look at that, 58 00:06:04,453 --> 00:06:11,533 make sure it looks right and hit the submit button and then it comes over to us and we'll figure out how best to get that. 59 00:06:11,533 --> 00:06:17,713 So on occasion, it might be something we can actually fill from our own collection just wasn't connected quite right? 60 00:06:17,713 --> 00:06:25,183 Or it's in print, so you couldn't get it full text. We'll scan those things and upload them and send you an email about how to get them. 61 00:06:25,183 --> 00:06:33,583 Or we might ask another library to supply it. A lot of times other libraries will have it online, and the whole process can be very, very fast. 62 00:06:33,583 --> 00:06:37,513 I'd say most ileal of articles takes less than two business days, 63 00:06:37,513 --> 00:06:47,743 but a lot of times it can be completed within just a few hours, depending on who has it and how readily available it is. 64 00:06:47,743 --> 00:06:51,583 So we'll figure out how best to get it and get it to you as soon as we can. 65 00:06:51,583 --> 00:06:55,783 You'll get an email when it's available for you to look at online. 66 00:06:55,783 --> 00:06:57,823 We do the same thing with book chapters, 67 00:06:57,823 --> 00:07:08,613 so basically any time you get this kind of link that says get via interlibrary loan, you can use that to request it. 68 00:07:08,613 --> 00:07:15,513 Next slide, another ileal example, this is just a screen you may see that looks slightly different, but I just wanted to point it out. 69 00:07:15,513 --> 00:07:21,363 This one has a very nice big blue requests through interlibrary loan buttons, so it's quite obvious in this case, 70 00:07:21,363 --> 00:07:24,903 this is one that we actually we don't have it online, but we have it in print. 71 00:07:24,903 --> 00:07:37,773 It's the Journal of the American Medical Association. So if we get that request, we'll just go up and scan that item for you and send it along. 72 00:07:37,773 --> 00:07:44,103 I wanted to circle back to that, the option for people who are far from campus for getting physical materials. 73 00:07:44,103 --> 00:07:50,403 So what we discussed so far was pretty much about articles or book chapters, things we could provide electronically. 74 00:07:50,403 --> 00:07:53,253 Here we are back on the library's home page. 75 00:07:53,253 --> 00:08:02,763 And if you click on the dropdown menu that says services, you'll get a link that says for distance off campus students. 76 00:08:02,763 --> 00:08:05,883 And if you click on the link. 77 00:08:05,883 --> 00:08:12,783 You'll see some information, including these two links, which are important, so the first one is forgetting articles or book chapters. 78 00:08:12,783 --> 00:08:19,413 This actually takes you to our interlibrary loan system, just kind of the same as what we've been talking about. 79 00:08:19,413 --> 00:08:24,213 This takes you right to the login so you can fill in information on a request yourself. 80 00:08:24,213 --> 00:08:30,123 The second one is for requesting physical things, so if you live more than 50 miles away from campus, 81 00:08:30,123 --> 00:08:35,523 we will actually get physical items for you and mail them to you. 82 00:08:35,523 --> 00:08:41,313 We would mail it out. The student would be responsible for sending it back before the due date. 83 00:08:41,313 --> 00:08:48,843 And it's a great service if you kind of know ahead of time which physical items you might need. 84 00:08:48,843 --> 00:08:51,543 We also have some other options within Colorado. 85 00:08:51,543 --> 00:08:57,393 So if you're in Colorado but not close to campus first, I would say if you're not quite 50 miles, still contact us. 86 00:08:57,393 --> 00:08:59,103 It's not really a hard and fast rule. 87 00:08:59,103 --> 00:09:07,263 So if you're not usually coming to campus and this service would be useful for you, go ahead and ask and we'll see what we can do for you. 88 00:09:07,263 --> 00:09:11,223 The other thing is we have a great connection between libraries in Colorado in general, 89 00:09:11,223 --> 00:09:17,373 and we have a shared card catalog called Prospector and Prospector may be a good option for you. 90 00:09:17,373 --> 00:09:24,153 If you're a user of your local public library to get you and see items sent directly to you at your public library. 91 00:09:24,153 --> 00:09:29,673 So I just wanted to throw that out there as a possible another way to get materials from us. 92 00:09:29,673 --> 00:09:33,783 Basically, if you make a request through this request form, 93 00:09:33,783 --> 00:09:37,593 someone individually looks at that request and we will be in touch with you 94 00:09:37,593 --> 00:09:43,203 personally to determine the best way to fill your need based on where you live, 95 00:09:43,203 --> 00:09:57,063 what your timeline is, etc. So do we have any questions right now about getting library materials? 96 00:09:57,063 --> 00:10:07,563 All right. I'm going to move on to librarian resources, so the idea here is that we want to connect you with the right librarian. 97 00:10:07,563 --> 00:10:13,563 So we have a librarian who specializes in the research needs of all the different colleges and programs. 98 00:10:13,563 --> 00:10:18,693 And at the graduate level, the best research help you can get is really from your subject librarian. 99 00:10:18,693 --> 00:10:23,373 So please take a moment to find them. So I have clicked here on. 100 00:10:23,373 --> 00:10:32,373 I circled where to find the subject liaison librarian directory, and I'm also just going to click into it and actually look through it a little bit. 101 00:10:32,373 --> 00:10:40,623 So give me a second to pull that up and bring that over into my screen so you can see it. 102 00:10:40,623 --> 00:10:44,943 This is basically a list of our faculty librarians on the right hand side. 103 00:10:44,943 --> 00:10:50,103 It will show if they are a liaison librarian for a particular area. 104 00:10:50,103 --> 00:10:56,673 If that academic area is a link, you can click on that and it will take you to a research guide about that area. 105 00:10:56,673 --> 00:11:01,623 So in this case, Rachel has put together a research guide about art and design. 106 00:11:01,623 --> 00:11:03,243 This is a good thing to go look at, 107 00:11:03,243 --> 00:11:11,373 especially if you're new to you and see it can give you some basic idea of the main resources we have for that discipline. 108 00:11:11,373 --> 00:11:16,513 So I would recommend taking a look if you can. And then. 109 00:11:16,513 --> 00:11:21,643 I want to go back, but everything is covered up, here we go. 110 00:11:21,643 --> 00:11:28,423 The other important part here is just contact information for that librarian and especially the make an appointment button. 111 00:11:28,423 --> 00:11:32,803 So if I want to meet with Annie, I can just click this make an appointment. 112 00:11:32,803 --> 00:11:37,693 I will actually be able to see what Time's Annie is available on any given date. 113 00:11:37,693 --> 00:11:44,833 Can click on a time, and I'll just have to put in some information myself about myself and I've made an appointment. 114 00:11:44,833 --> 00:11:50,233 So that obviously saves a lot of time. You don't have to back and forth with someone trying to figure out a good time to meet. 115 00:11:50,233 --> 00:11:56,983 I would also recommend that you put in the notes if you have particular research questions that you want help with during this meeting. 116 00:11:56,983 --> 00:12:01,453 That way, the librarian can actually prepare a little bit ahead of time. 117 00:12:01,453 --> 00:12:04,933 So I recommend that you're also welcome to just make an appointment to like, 118 00:12:04,933 --> 00:12:11,443 meet someone and talk a little bit about your discipline in general, if that's the point that you're at. 119 00:12:11,443 --> 00:12:21,823 Um, I did want to point out, we have some areas that are being covered right now by a team approach because we 120 00:12:21,823 --> 00:12:26,893 have a vacancy and someone who is going to be out on leave for a couple of months. 121 00:12:26,893 --> 00:12:35,263 So either at the top of the screen or for instance, for Wendy, there's a note here that Wendy's on leave for fall 2021. 122 00:12:35,263 --> 00:12:42,703 If you are in an area with this situation, it's humanities and social sciences and education. 123 00:12:42,703 --> 00:12:48,223 You can email the libraries@unco.edu email address that actually comes to me, 124 00:12:48,223 --> 00:12:54,373 and then I'll figure out who among our tag team of librarians can help with your research. 125 00:12:54,373 --> 00:13:00,733 All of those areas will have a dedicated like, you know, single person working with them again in the spring. 126 00:13:00,733 --> 00:13:06,853 So we just have this odd situation this fall that I wanted to point out to folks. 127 00:13:06,853 --> 00:13:12,943 Um. All right. 128 00:13:12,943 --> 00:13:18,433 I also wanted to point out the additional ways to find contact information for librarians. 129 00:13:18,433 --> 00:13:24,763 So this was clicking on that main research help button at the library's website. 130 00:13:24,763 --> 00:13:30,733 It has more information than this, but just wanted to point out ways to find your library and schedule a console. 131 00:13:30,733 --> 00:13:34,573 Email us, call us and also the chat button. 132 00:13:34,573 --> 00:13:42,193 It will be live on the library's web page anytime Michener libraries open, so we staff that with staff from my department. 133 00:13:42,193 --> 00:13:45,163 We're really good at helping with access kind of questions. 134 00:13:45,163 --> 00:13:51,553 If it's more of an in-depth research question will probably still refer you to an appropriate librarian who can help you more. 135 00:13:51,553 --> 00:13:55,783 But the chat function can be really helpful when you just have a simple thing you need. 136 00:13:55,783 --> 00:14:02,083 Need a little assistance with? And 137 00:14:02,083 --> 00:14:08,513 finally, I'll just say thank you and do you have any questions before I wrap up my section? 138 00:14:08,513 --> 00:14:17,933 I guess I have a quick question on when you showed the search results from something you input into something. 139 00:14:17,933 --> 00:14:25,613 Uh-Huh. There's a little you said it automatically cites things for you, like it gives you the citation, 140 00:14:25,613 --> 00:14:31,373 but it will do is actually pull the citation information into your interlibrary loan request. 141 00:14:31,373 --> 00:14:34,223 OK, you need it. So that's the part that that works for. 142 00:14:34,223 --> 00:14:42,473 I think Maggie will be talking about RefWorks later, and there may be some automated ways to get citations through that. 143 00:14:42,473 --> 00:14:50,923 Awesome. Thank you. Yeah. Anything else? 144 00:14:50,923 --> 00:15:00,583 OK, I'm going to stop sharing and please feel free to ask something at the end of the program if something comes up. 145 00:15:00,583 --> 00:15:03,193 I'll be around. Sarah, thank you so much. 146 00:15:03,193 --> 00:15:09,223 And I just want to point out that Sarah had some excellent links during her presentation, so I tried to put those in the chat as much as possible. 147 00:15:09,223 --> 00:15:13,123 So if you want to go ahead and click on those, bookmark them, save the email addresses. 148 00:15:13,123 --> 00:15:19,793 Those are all great resources. OK. And next up, we have Jane Monson. 149 00:15:19,793 --> 00:15:23,693 All right, thanks, Natasha. Hey, everybody. 150 00:15:23,693 --> 00:15:32,813 So my name is Jane Monson, and I am the English and Film Studies subject librarian here at Michener Library. 151 00:15:32,813 --> 00:15:38,603 So I'm one of those subject liaisons that Sarah pointed out in your presentation. 152 00:15:38,603 --> 00:15:44,723 So I just wanted to follow up a little bit on what Sarah was talking about regarding using Summon to find 153 00:15:44,723 --> 00:15:51,353 journal articles and interlibrary loan to get copies of articles that the library doesn't have access to. 154 00:15:51,353 --> 00:15:57,323 So I also wanted to touch on some additional strategies that you can try if you need to locate 155 00:15:57,323 --> 00:16:04,013 journal articles that aren't coming up in your Summon search or not getting the results you want, 156 00:16:04,013 --> 00:16:09,683 or if you're unable to access a full text copy of an article in a database. 157 00:16:09,683 --> 00:16:16,103 So I'll be showing you how to navigate to some of these resources on the library's website. 158 00:16:16,103 --> 00:16:26,663 You can feel free to follow along on your computer if you want to go to: www.unco.edu/library 159 00:16:26,663 --> 00:16:33,173 and I'm going to go ahead and just share my screen so you guys can see my browser. 160 00:16:33,173 --> 00:16:39,353 So are you see the library's home page? OK, excellent. 161 00:16:39,353 --> 00:16:51,023 All right. So I'm basically going to be covering two things: subject databases and how to search journals or find journals. 162 00:16:51,023 --> 00:16:57,923 So, you know, we touched a little bit on Summon. So many students rely almost exclusively 163 00:16:57,923 --> 00:17:02,993 on Summon to search the library's holdings using this main search bar here. 164 00:17:02,993 --> 00:17:08,393 That's really right front and center on the library home page because that's really the first thing they see. 165 00:17:08,393 --> 00:17:15,743 And it's a really convenient tool for kind of searching over the library's holdings. 166 00:17:15,743 --> 00:17:23,753 But a lot of people might not necessarily be aware that they could be missing some important resources if they only use Summon. 167 00:17:23,753 --> 00:17:29,513 So Summon doesn't necessarily search all of the library's holdings. 168 00:17:29,513 --> 00:17:34,373 I think Sarah mentioned that sometimes it doesn't quite connect with everything. 169 00:17:34,373 --> 00:17:42,503 The last I knew, I think some in I had heard that Summon searches about 80 percent of library's holdings. 170 00:17:42,503 --> 00:17:49,403 I'm not entirely sure if that number are still accurate, but the point is that there are some databases and things like that. 171 00:17:49,403 --> 00:17:54,803 But if you're only using Summon to search, you might miss some stuff. 172 00:17:54,803 --> 00:18:05,783 So, you know you can still, you can often still access content that you might miss in Summon, though, if you know other places to look. 173 00:18:05,783 --> 00:18:17,573 So you can, One way you can go about doing this is to search the library's databases individually, so this can help you to kind of pull into your net. 174 00:18:17,573 --> 00:18:22,373 Your research net some things that Summon might not cover. 175 00:18:22,373 --> 00:18:28,613 So this could be helpful in a couple of ways. It can give you a more manageable number of search results to deal with. 176 00:18:28,613 --> 00:18:33,983 You'll find that when you're using Summon to search, you'll often get a really overwhelming number of hits. 177 00:18:33,983 --> 00:18:40,823 You might get in the tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of hits, and there are ways to to narrow that down with Summon. 178 00:18:40,823 --> 00:18:45,683 But there's just so much stuff in there that it can get a little bit overwhelming. 179 00:18:45,683 --> 00:18:50,633 So a searching subject databases can help you kind of narrow that down a little bit. 180 00:18:50,633 --> 00:18:59,083 And then also using these databases can help you to potentially access articles that don't appear in Summon. 181 00:18:59,083 --> 00:19:04,633 So branching out from Summon to use some of these subject databases in your field, I think, 182 00:19:04,633 --> 00:19:10,933 will really help you with the kind of in-depth and focused research that's really expected at the graduate level. 183 00:19:10,933 --> 00:19:20,413 So I can kind of take you beyond the undergraduate level of research that you might be used to a more higher level of scholarship. 184 00:19:20,413 --> 00:19:24,643 So I kind of recommend using Summon as a starting point in your research and 185 00:19:24,643 --> 00:19:30,223 then delving into some subject databases to kind of fine tune your searching. 186 00:19:30,223 --> 00:19:33,343 OK, so how do we find these databases? 187 00:19:33,343 --> 00:19:42,103 The first way is go to the library homepage and click on the Databases tab that's directly above the Summon search box. 188 00:19:42,103 --> 00:19:48,463 So we'll go ahead and open that. And there's a few ways to view the database offerings here. 189 00:19:48,463 --> 00:19:54,793 You can browse them alphabetically using the "Databases A to Z" link here. 190 00:19:54,793 --> 00:20:00,823 So this is probably going to be the most useful if you already know which database you're looking for. 191 00:20:00,823 --> 00:20:09,743 And you just need to go directly to it. If you aren't sure what you're looking for, 192 00:20:09,743 --> 00:20:19,373 you can go back to the Databases tab and click on this "Browse databases by subject" type or Vendor" view. 193 00:20:19,373 --> 00:20:27,293 So here you're going to see some dropdown menus for the top of the page, so this is going to allow you to browse your databases by subjects. 194 00:20:27,293 --> 00:20:32,633 So if you know that you're researching anthropology, that's going to narrow things down for you. 195 00:20:32,633 --> 00:20:39,893 You can also browse by type of database. So, for example, newspapers, streaming audio or video, 196 00:20:39,893 --> 00:20:51,283 you can also filter out databases that contain all full text results versus those that only have some full text. 197 00:20:51,283 --> 00:20:58,493 OK. Going back to the home page. In addition to browsing those databases listed by subject, 198 00:20:58,493 --> 00:21:06,413 you can also use the library's research guides that Sarah mentioned to locate resources that are most relevant to your area of subject 199 00:21:06,413 --> 00:21:15,203 because they've been compiled and kind of curated by the subject liaison in your area to help you really hone in on those resources, 200 00:21:15,203 --> 00:21:23,573 that would probably be the most useful for you. So I just wanted to show you guys how you go about accessing those. 201 00:21:23,573 --> 00:21:31,503 So there's a research guides link underneath the Summon bar. And then they're all laid out by subject area. 202 00:21:31,503 --> 00:21:39,963 So, for example, if we wanted to look at my English research guide, we would go into the arts and humanities subcategory. 203 00:21:39,963 --> 00:21:45,013 And then within that, we've got our main English literature. 204 00:21:45,013 --> 00:21:57,493 Research guide here. So as you can see, there are direct links in here to the various English subject databases that the library has access to. 205 00:21:57,493 --> 00:22:06,523 In addition to some other recommended multi subject databases that include collections of English content along with other disciplines, 206 00:22:06,523 --> 00:22:14,113 so these would be things that you might have used before, like JStor or ProjectMuse or Humanities Source. 207 00:22:14,113 --> 00:22:20,053 And then down here towards bottom, we've also got some links to core journals in the field, 208 00:22:20,053 --> 00:22:26,743 as well as some other resources that might be useful specifically for students studying English. 209 00:22:26,743 --> 00:22:31,393 So I think it can be a really great idea to bookmark the research guide for your discipline 210 00:22:31,393 --> 00:22:39,903 so that you can quickly and easily find the resources that are most useful for your area. 211 00:22:39,903 --> 00:22:45,513 So I don't really have time to show you the end of any of the individual subject databases, 212 00:22:45,513 --> 00:22:54,043 I really just wanted to give you kind of a quick overview of like how you go about finding them and you guys can explore them on your own. 213 00:22:54,043 --> 00:23:01,393 Once you've located ones that look like they'd be useful for you, but you can always, of course, contact your subject librarian for assistance, 214 00:23:01,393 --> 00:23:09,523 if you get into using one of the databases, you're having trouble navigating it or you're not finding what you're looking for. 215 00:23:09,523 --> 00:23:14,053 Another way that you can contact your subject librarian is actually within the research guides. 216 00:23:14,053 --> 00:23:21,793 So in addition to, you know, the ways that Sarah showed you to get in touch with your Liaison, 217 00:23:21,793 --> 00:23:27,013 if you're in the research guide, you can also click on this email me link or go to that schedule an appointment. 218 00:23:27,013 --> 00:23:31,753 And that's going to allow you to quickly email your liaison if you have a question that 219 00:23:31,753 --> 00:23:36,523 can be answered by email or you can schedule one of those research consultations. 220 00:23:36,523 --> 00:23:44,913 So there's a lot of different ways that you can pretty easily get in touch with that person who can help you. 221 00:23:44,913 --> 00:23:52,173 OK, so I'm going to go back to the homepage and then the second thing I wanted to touch on today was how you 222 00:23:52,173 --> 00:23:58,293 can go directly to the journals themselves to find articles rather than searching through a database. 223 00:23:58,293 --> 00:24:05,463 So the library subscribes to thousands of individual journals, and you can usually find them, 224 00:24:05,463 --> 00:24:08,913 you know, via a database or individual articles from a journal. 225 00:24:08,913 --> 00:24:14,763 But there might be some times when the best way to access an article is to go straight to the journal itself. 226 00:24:14,763 --> 00:24:21,693 So, for example, if you find an article that you want to read in a database, but the full text is not available there, 227 00:24:21,693 --> 00:24:29,283 sometimes you can get the article full text by checking to see if the library has a subscription to the journal and searching there. 228 00:24:29,283 --> 00:24:30,693 This might be useful if, 229 00:24:30,693 --> 00:24:40,603 like you're on a really tight deadline and you don't have time to submit a request for library staff to locate and copy that article for you. 230 00:24:40,603 --> 00:24:49,393 So in order to do the library's journals holdings, we'll just go to this Journal tab next to the Databases tab. 231 00:24:49,393 --> 00:24:55,033 So here you can either search the journals by title if you know exactly which journal you're picking for. 232 00:24:55,033 --> 00:25:03,103 You can also browse those journals listed by subject, and then we have an A to Z title search here. 233 00:25:03,103 --> 00:25:16,233 So it's very similar to what we saw with the database search. So if we just look at the data, see lists. 234 00:25:16,233 --> 00:25:22,893 As you can see, we've got almost 8000 journals, so this probably isn't going to be a super helpful way to find what you're looking for. 235 00:25:22,893 --> 00:25:27,393 Let's go back actually to the subject search. 236 00:25:27,393 --> 00:25:33,743 So if we want to do our language and literature Journal Holdings. 237 00:25:33,743 --> 00:25:41,813 This is going to also break it down for you by sort of some subcategories within English literature. 238 00:25:41,813 --> 00:25:45,743 So this can be a useful way to really hone in on those individual journals. 239 00:25:45,743 --> 00:25:52,073 You can see here it's actually going to show you all the different databases that this journal is available in. 240 00:25:52,073 --> 00:26:00,443 And usually it'll be available within a different database for sort of a different time period. 241 00:26:00,443 --> 00:26:07,193 So, you know, if you have found an article that you weren't able to access and you kind of copy down the time the. 242 00:26:07,193 --> 00:26:10,733 The article title or the citation or whatever, you know, 243 00:26:10,733 --> 00:26:21,203 you might go directly into that database and view the journal interface itself and browse within that to find the article that you're looking for. 244 00:26:21,203 --> 00:26:27,563 Or maybe run a search. So you know this, this might not be something that you'll need to do very often, 245 00:26:27,563 --> 00:26:31,673 because I think the library databases have really great full text coverage. 246 00:26:31,673 --> 00:26:36,233 But sometimes you run into a dead end and instead of giving up and saying, Oh, 247 00:26:36,233 --> 00:26:41,513 I guess I just can't get this great article that looks like it would be really useful for my research. 248 00:26:41,513 --> 00:26:46,883 You might try actually, you know, searching a journal itself, and you might be able to find it that way. 249 00:26:46,883 --> 00:26:53,933 I have found that I've been able to do that sometimes. I'm going to go back to the home page. 250 00:26:53,933 --> 00:26:59,593 Actually, no, I'm sorry, I meant to go back to the print. 251 00:26:59,593 --> 00:27:05,013 Let's see. Sorry, but I'm I'm skipping around a little bit here. 252 00:27:05,013 --> 00:27:10,923 So you also notice here that this is going to tell you there's journals that are available only in print. 253 00:27:10,923 --> 00:27:17,583 So if you click on an ad that's going to take you to the library catalog record, that's going to tell you where that's available. 254 00:27:17,583 --> 00:27:23,073 We do have quite a few print journals that are still either on our shelves. 255 00:27:23,073 --> 00:27:30,723 Some of them like this one, are in storage, but I believe you can request those, if you'd like to, to access them. 256 00:27:30,723 --> 00:27:33,973 But other print journals are up on the second floor, even mentioned library. 257 00:27:33,973 --> 00:27:44,023 So if you're on campus and you're able to to easily get to the library, you can access those journals yourself yourself. 258 00:27:44,023 --> 00:27:51,033 OK. And one thing to keep in mind to you about the older journals, you know, it's easy to think, well, 259 00:27:51,033 --> 00:27:58,383 those are so old, you know, something from the 50s or 60s or that really be useful or relevant for my research. 260 00:27:58,383 --> 00:28:06,303 But I think it really depends on your discipline. Some disciplines like history or English, probably not so much sciences and things like that. 261 00:28:06,303 --> 00:28:13,383 But you know that older content often is not necessarily outdated, and it could actually be really useful for you. 262 00:28:13,383 --> 00:28:20,193 You might find something that you can use for your research, so don't necessarily discount those print journals. 263 00:28:20,193 --> 00:28:25,353 You may find something in there that you know might be helpful for you. 264 00:28:25,353 --> 00:28:33,183 And then I think, you know, another thing about journals knowing how to access those journals directly that can be really useful for you. 265 00:28:33,183 --> 00:28:37,143 It's just, you know, as as a graduate scholar, 266 00:28:37,143 --> 00:28:44,283 I think it's a really great thing to kind of familiarize yourself with and follow the specific journals in your discipline 267 00:28:44,283 --> 00:28:51,513 so that you can kind of keep current with research trends and learn about the most important voices in your field. 268 00:28:51,513 --> 00:28:55,143 So when you're getting to this level in your academic career, 269 00:28:55,143 --> 00:29:01,323 it's really good to kind of identify some of those four journals in your area, know how to access them, 270 00:29:01,323 --> 00:29:07,473 and maybe, you know, occasionally go in and browse the latest articles seeing what's being written, 271 00:29:07,473 --> 00:29:17,043 even if it's not directly relevant to a paper you're writing. It's just a really good way to kind of keep current with your field. 272 00:29:17,043 --> 00:29:20,313 So that was really all I had to show, you guys. 273 00:29:20,313 --> 00:29:32,503 Does anyone have any questions about what I just covered before I handed over to Maggie to talk about RefWorks? 274 00:29:32,503 --> 00:29:36,113 Thanks, Jane. All right. All right. 275 00:29:36,113 --> 00:29:43,923 So I'll take over now on the torture. Yes, I'm going to show you. OK, tell us about RefWorks. 276 00:29:43,923 --> 00:29:48,663 Yes. And do you all see my Google page? Yay! 277 00:29:48,663 --> 00:29:55,953 OK, so I'm Maggie Shawcross, and I'm the Health Sciences Librarian here at UNC, and today I have the pleasure of showing you RefWorks. 278 00:29:55,953 --> 00:30:04,803 So RefWorks is a citation management system that UNC Libraries subscribes to and you have access to. 279 00:30:04,803 --> 00:30:11,343 So let's get started. So here is my Google page, and we're going to go to the library homepage. 280 00:30:11,343 --> 00:30:19,563 So as we have mentioned before, the website is unco.edu/library. 281 00:30:19,563 --> 00:30:29,273 And the easiest way that I have found to access RefWorks is to go through Databases (tab). 282 00:30:29,273 --> 00:30:35,183 And here we have all our databases listed alphabetically. And we're going to click "R". 283 00:30:35,183 --> 00:30:47,133 And then, "R" for RefWorks, there's a couple of other places in the Library website where you can access RefWorks, mostly in research guides. 284 00:30:47,133 --> 00:30:56,643 Jane had referred to those. But there's there's so many resources available on the Library homepage, so I think that this is the best way. 285 00:30:56,643 --> 00:31:01,973 So you go the Library Homepage, Databases tab, then "R" for RefWorks. 286 00:31:01,973 --> 00:31:07,043 OK, so now we're going to get into RefWorks here, so we're going to click on RefWorks. 287 00:31:07,043 --> 00:31:11,273 So I had mentioned that RefWorks is a citation management system. 288 00:31:11,273 --> 00:31:18,953 So what that means is that it is a website that we subscribe to that helps you do three things: 289 00:31:18,953 --> 00:31:28,613 It helps you store your sources. It helps you share your sources and then it helps you with citing your sources. 290 00:31:28,613 --> 00:31:35,513 And I think it was (student) who had mentioned, "Could you use cite using website?", and so I'll show you that too. 291 00:31:35,513 --> 00:31:43,673 But RefWorks, I really enjoy using it because it kind of holds all your materials in one place. 292 00:31:43,673 --> 00:31:47,693 So when you get started with RefWorks, we're going to create a website (login). 293 00:31:47,693 --> 00:31:53,203 And I guess, can you guys give me a thumbs up if you have (a) RefWorks (account) already? 294 00:31:53,203 --> 00:31:57,133 In your reactions? No. OK. 295 00:31:57,133 --> 00:32:01,903 Well, that's good to hear, so you don't have it. Let's talk about getting an account. 296 00:32:01,903 --> 00:32:09,053 So when you come to the RefWorks website, you first want to click on this use from a use log in from my institution. 297 00:32:09,053 --> 00:32:16,183 Do not do that because it'll confuse you. You go to create the account, so you click on Create Account here. 298 00:32:16,183 --> 00:32:22,423 You're going to put in your UNC email and you use your UNC email because it is 299 00:32:22,423 --> 00:32:27,313 It is a subscription. It is a resource that is paid for through UNC. 300 00:32:27,313 --> 00:32:33,553 So not everybody has access to this. So you put in your UNC email, you will get an email immediately. 301 00:32:33,553 --> 00:32:41,923 So if you check your email and it's not there, check your spam. And if you still check your spam and it's not there, contact the library. 302 00:32:41,923 --> 00:32:47,173 We're going to try to figure out what's going on. So now you created an account. 303 00:32:47,173 --> 00:32:52,573 And so here I have. I'm going to go back and I just remember my log in here. 304 00:32:52,573 --> 00:32:59,503 So I use my log in and I sign in. OK. 305 00:32:59,503 --> 00:33:03,433 So when you see RefWorks, it looks like this here. 306 00:33:03,433 --> 00:33:07,723 I think of it like a dashboard you see on the top. 307 00:33:07,723 --> 00:33:13,993 It has an entitled project in RefWorks. There's there's two major ways of organizing information. 308 00:33:13,993 --> 00:33:19,693 There's projects which are huge. So you could think of a project like if you're writing a system, 309 00:33:19,693 --> 00:33:27,043 a systematic review and you have a hundred articles and you want to put them all in there, as you can notice right now. 310 00:33:27,043 --> 00:33:36,743 My all, my articles are in here, and so that's my untitled project, but I do have other smaller projects that I have created. 311 00:33:36,743 --> 00:33:44,873 The great thing about projects is a great way to organize large amount of information and you can share with other RefWorks users. 312 00:33:44,873 --> 00:33:55,583 The other way to share is called folders, folders or smaller ways to organize information, and you can share folders with non RefWorks users. 313 00:33:55,583 --> 00:34:03,533 So we'll come to that here in a second. When you look at RefWorks, so here is where all my references are on the side. 314 00:34:03,533 --> 00:34:11,953 We have tabs for information for some, some frequently used. 315 00:34:11,953 --> 00:34:20,803 Some frequently use folders and then here we have a ribbon, and these are the most commonly used features of RefWorks. 316 00:34:20,803 --> 00:34:27,003 So the first way the first thing that it shows you is to add. So how do we add materials? 317 00:34:27,003 --> 00:34:31,903 You click on it. It tells you you can upload a document, you can import a document. 318 00:34:31,903 --> 00:34:39,223 So for example, if you already have a Mendeley account and I've had this before a professor like I put all my stuff on Mendeley, 319 00:34:39,223 --> 00:34:46,573 you can import all those references into RefWorks. And you can also manually enter information. 320 00:34:46,573 --> 00:34:52,243 But of course, the easiest way to do it is to upload a document. So I was going to show you this pretty quickly here. 321 00:34:52,243 --> 00:34:59,653 So I'm using we're going to pretend I'm using Summon and I find an article that I like. 322 00:34:59,653 --> 00:35:05,413 And so most of these databases do offer these features. So this one has a permanent link. 323 00:35:05,413 --> 00:35:13,543 It has a cite, a citation tool. But as librarians we would tell you, there is no perfect tool out there, including RefWorks. 324 00:35:13,543 --> 00:35:25,393 It's not perfect. So you can use these, but just know that it's always good to know a little bit about your, your manual, your style manual. 325 00:35:25,393 --> 00:35:37,093 So, for example, if I were to cite this, I need to make sure that that the journal title is in sentence case or the title 326 00:35:37,093 --> 00:35:41,743 of the article is in sentence case and the name of the journal is italicized. 327 00:35:41,743 --> 00:35:45,493 And sometimes these databases don't catch that. 328 00:35:45,493 --> 00:35:50,953 So it's always good to double check your citations. So enough of that speech, so close it here. 329 00:35:50,953 --> 00:35:55,543 But I did want to show you this little more actions. 330 00:35:55,543 --> 00:36:03,023 There is a link to export information into RefWorks. 331 00:36:03,023 --> 00:36:09,693 Know that when you do it this way, it's just sending information to folks about the article, 332 00:36:09,693 --> 00:36:15,233 but sending the title and the author in the year, but not necessarily the article. 333 00:36:15,233 --> 00:36:20,213 So the I think the great thing about RefWorks is that it's storage. 334 00:36:20,213 --> 00:36:27,023 So if I find this article and I click on it and it took me to this web site, actually, let me show you what it looks like. 335 00:36:27,023 --> 00:36:38,143 So they find an article I like. I click on it. It's working its magic, it takes me to a database, it holds it. 336 00:36:38,143 --> 00:36:46,753 I look for a way to download the article, so I click on it and it starts downloading it or actually clicks on it. 337 00:36:46,753 --> 00:36:52,363 You start downloading it. It asks me where to save it. We'll save it on the desktop. 338 00:36:52,363 --> 00:36:57,733 Sometimes it brings up on the bottom of your browser. I don't know what you all see this down here. 339 00:36:57,733 --> 00:37:08,083 It brought up the article, so when you click on RefWorks, you can click it and then drag the article and it starts uploading it. 340 00:37:08,083 --> 00:37:12,953 So what it is doing here, it is uploading all the metadata or what we call, 341 00:37:12,953 --> 00:37:24,643 It's that's a fancy word for all the descriptive information so the title and the author in the year, but it does also uploading the article itself. 342 00:37:24,643 --> 00:37:33,763 So it feels like it takes forever and it is take. It takes about a minute or so because it is extracting all that information. 343 00:37:33,763 --> 00:37:38,683 So while it does that, I'll show you some of these other buttons. 344 00:37:38,683 --> 00:37:44,113 There's a share feature. So that's the second thing about RefWorks that I wanted to hit on today. 345 00:37:44,113 --> 00:37:48,643 You can share with other folks, so you can you can share folders. 346 00:37:48,643 --> 00:37:57,223 Remember with non users, have you have a team project, you want to share articles, you can do that, you can create a bibliography. 347 00:37:57,223 --> 00:38:01,813 So that's the third thing is citing. So let's come back here. 348 00:38:01,813 --> 00:38:08,583 So here is this article. It's uploaded if you click on it 349 00:38:08,583 --> 00:38:15,543 Here is the Article, Now I can access it and I can make notes to it. 350 00:38:15,543 --> 00:38:25,623 But what I wanted to show you here is that you can create a bibliographies and In-text citations for your for your papers. 351 00:38:25,623 --> 00:38:32,933 So let's click on this article here, though I'll just upload it and click Create bibliography. 352 00:38:32,933 --> 00:38:44,933 So here is an option to create a bibliography from my paper. Here is a quick citation feature so that I can get an in-text citation. 353 00:38:44,933 --> 00:38:50,933 And then here you can edit the type of style that you're using, I think I've heard. 354 00:38:50,933 --> 00:38:59,843 I feel like Jane because I think I've heard that RefWorks has like 3000 different styles, and I guess we'll see here in a second. 355 00:38:59,843 --> 00:39:03,683 So lots of styles that are available to you. So let's create a bibliography. 356 00:39:03,683 --> 00:39:13,693 So I clicked on it. I'm going to create a bibliography. It is defaulted to the one I use the most. 357 00:39:13,693 --> 00:39:20,803 So I'm using APA seventh edition, sentence casing with a DOI that has https, 358 00:39:20,803 --> 00:39:29,833 so if you know that you're using the newest APA style, which is seventh edition, they are now using sentence casing. 359 00:39:29,833 --> 00:39:35,393 And if you have access to the DOI, it wants it. 360 00:39:35,393 --> 00:39:46,013 So here is the citation, and so I always check it, because even though this is an APA product and the manuals is APA, we always want to double check. 361 00:39:46,013 --> 00:39:55,793 So as you can see here is sentence casing, meaning that the first letter is capitalized and then everything after it is not capitalized. 362 00:39:55,793 --> 00:40:03,683 And then the journal article is italicized and the volume is italicized, so you always want to double check. 363 00:40:03,683 --> 00:40:10,193 OK, so here's this thing you can copy it and then you can paste it into your word document. 364 00:40:10,193 --> 00:40:20,093 So now we're going to go back. OK. So here you can also add tags, as you can see, some of these have tags in. 365 00:40:20,093 --> 00:40:27,203 Some of them came with tags. When I uploaded it from Summon, it just brought tags with it. 366 00:40:27,203 --> 00:40:42,643 And we have the tools bar. The tools where it is really handy because you can find duplicates but have also used tools if you click on it. 367 00:40:42,643 --> 00:40:49,423 There's some neat, little helpers to help you make do your research better. 368 00:40:49,423 --> 00:40:57,853 So I have this save to RefWorks button, you see, it's up here so you can install this extension to your browser and it can make it easier. 369 00:40:57,853 --> 00:41:03,193 So have you find a document or a report or a journal article online, 370 00:41:03,193 --> 00:41:07,603 and now you want to connect it right to RefWorks, you don't have to find the website. 371 00:41:07,603 --> 00:41:19,573 You can just save it to RefWorks here. And then there's all sorts of built ins for your word processing software that you can also install. 372 00:41:19,573 --> 00:41:26,143 But now we're getting too far. So let's get back to this. So here on the left hand side, I just wanted to mention these. 373 00:41:26,143 --> 00:41:31,663 So if you click on all references, it kind of brings you back to that home page. 374 00:41:31,663 --> 00:41:33,883 I'm going to skip search databases. 375 00:41:33,883 --> 00:41:41,803 This "last imported" is helpful because sometimes you want that last article, you're like, Where did I put this article? 376 00:41:41,803 --> 00:41:44,323 And I only have one hundred and fifty nine references, 377 00:41:44,323 --> 00:41:50,893 but you can really hold as many references as you want in RefWorks, but it'll only show you two thousand. 378 00:41:50,893 --> 00:41:57,343 But if you have thousands of articles you like, well, I know that I imported it within the last 30 days. 379 00:41:57,343 --> 00:42:05,323 You can go to last imported and you can look at the past articles that you have imported in the past 30 days. 380 00:42:05,323 --> 00:42:13,183 There's also sharing so you can create folders and then you can share those with other folks. 381 00:42:13,183 --> 00:42:21,223 And remember, I told you folders you can share with people who are not UNC students. 382 00:42:21,223 --> 00:42:25,213 And then we have folders here, so you can create folders. 383 00:42:25,213 --> 00:42:32,623 You could create folders within folders as well. And this just helps you organize all your references. 384 00:42:32,623 --> 00:42:35,833 So I have a project called Here's a big one. 385 00:42:35,833 --> 00:42:39,913 So it's it's a "Research Training Institute". 386 00:42:39,913 --> 00:42:50,223 I have 50 articles in here, and if I wanted to create a bibliography for this, for this folder, I would click on it. 387 00:42:50,223 --> 00:42:58,593 And of course, it's thinking about it right now. Let's see if it does it. 388 00:42:58,593 --> 00:43:10,253 There it is. So I can select them all and then create a bibliography this way. 389 00:43:10,253 --> 00:43:18,753 When, I'm so sorry, I didn't show you this, so when you create a bibliography. Here on this dropdown is where you select your different style, 390 00:43:18,753 --> 00:43:27,653 so it has 6556, six thousand five hundred and fifty six different styles that you can access. 391 00:43:27,653 --> 00:43:32,873 And just because I get this question a lot, so they begin to wrap up here. 392 00:43:32,873 --> 00:43:36,923 You can go in after you create an account using the UNC email. 393 00:43:36,923 --> 00:43:40,343 You can go in here and change your email. 394 00:43:40,343 --> 00:43:49,283 So let's say you get you're getting ready to graduate and you still want access to all these materials that you've saved and you've curated. 395 00:43:49,283 --> 00:43:54,423 You can go in here and you can change your email to a Gmail. 396 00:43:54,423 --> 00:43:59,773 You just were required to have that UNC when you first create an account. 397 00:43:59,773 --> 00:44:06,043 OK, so that was my very, very quick intro to RefWorks. 398 00:44:06,043 --> 00:44:12,343 Know, that were, you know, all the librarians are available to talk to you if you have additional questions. 399 00:44:12,343 --> 00:44:20,323 And if you go to the UNC Library home page, we I think we, as we mentioned, research guides here. 400 00:44:20,323 --> 00:44:28,723 So our research guide there is a research guide under "Citation and Bibliographies" that walks you through RefWorks. 401 00:44:28,723 --> 00:44:35,113 So there are tons of videos and information on how to set up an account. 402 00:44:35,113 --> 00:44:46,463 So that you can get started with RefWorks. So that's it for me, any questions? 403 00:44:46,463 --> 00:44:50,693 All right, any questions for Sarah or Jane on the previous presentations? 404 00:44:50,693 --> 00:44:58,122 Anything you thought of since they presented? All right, well, thank you all so much for attending.
