Maximize your Literature Search in PubMed Online

Focusing on searching in PubMed, this hands-on class will provide tips and tricks on using advanced search skills to find high levels of evidence. Participants will learn how to use keywords and Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) to get the most out of their searches and will also learn to efficiently focus and narrow search results.  Due to the hands-on activities, this class is best attended via desktop or laptop. 

Learning Objectives:

  • Describe the difference between a background and foreground question

  • Frame a research question in the PICO format and column format

  • Distinguish between subject headings and keywords

  • Narrow search results

All library classes will be streamed live via Zoom, https://iu.zoom.us/j/98587477406. If there are no attendees online, classes will be cancelled 15 minutes after the scheduled start time.
