Have you ever been doing research and thought, "I can't remember how I found that really useful article before?" Do you have a really good search strategy that you re-enter from scratch each time you use it? Save yourself some time by saving searches.
To do this in the Ovid platform (which includes the databases Embase and Medline), go to
http://libguides.hull.ac.uk/medicine/FindArticles and follow the link to Medline and Embase.
Login with your York account.
Choose the database you want to use.
Go to
My Account. If you do not already have a personal account in Ovid, create a personal account. If you do, sign in.
Enter your search.
Once the search is complete, click
save search history.
Enter a name for the search and click
save.
The search can be accessed from the
My Searches and Alerts area in
My Workspace.
You can then re-run the search whenever you want!
