I know, I know there has not been a search tip for awhile. I will share a new one I just learned from my assistant Michelle. Related Articles link, you can love and hate it. First you find the perfect article on your topic and you want more just like it. You click on the Related Articles link and you get 463, but wait, you were searching for pain tolerance in Down's Syndrome, and you find a related article on the list titled, Effect of oxytocin on acupuncture analgesia in the rat. But you have been told you cannot place limits on related article lists. But wait! You can! Here are the steps on how to do just that.
Step 1. Find the perfect article.
Step 2. Click on the Related Article link to the right of the citation.
Step 3. Click on Advanced Search at the top of the page.
Step 4. Click on the number in your search history that shows your Related Article search, when a drop down menu shows up click on AND, the number should appear in the search box.
Step 5. Set your limits while you are on the Avanced Search page and click Search.
Step 6. View your limited Related Article list!
If you would like a demonstration of this please come in or call a librarian at Primary Children's Medical Library and we will be happy to show you.
