• Get Help! CVM Library Details
A lit search? What’s the point?

A literature search helps you answer all of these concerns!
Lit Review Basics
• Keep a working bibliography!
(using EndNote or Zotero can
help). Don’t depend on the pdf
copy of an article to contain the
whole citation.
• Find a few relevant recent articles
or books and follow the
references to other related works.
• Don’t cite anything you didn’t
actually read.
• Scholarly works add more weight
to your research.

“Scholarly” means it’s published in a
peer-reviewed, scientific journal
Popular Scholarly
Scholarly works add more
weight to your research

Search Tips ‘n’ Tricks
How to find an incomplete citation
If you only have part of a medical citation, fill in this form with what you do know, and
it will find the rest of the information:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/citmatch
If you know what article you’re looking for
Paste the title into the “Discovery” box at library.msstate.edu to jump directly to it
How to use InterLibrary Loan (ILL)
• If MSU Libraries doesn’t have something you need, you can borrow other
libraries’ items—from around the world
• Have it delivered to the CVM Library for pickup
• Fill out the form at https://illiad.library.msstate.edu/illiad/
To get off-campus access to online library resources
• Go through MSU Libraries’ website and enter your NetID and password when
prompted
Search Tips ‘n’ Tricks
Search Tip Example
Use correct spelling—some databases
don’t autocorrect
ophthalmology
Try different keywords, synonyms, and
larger or smaller category terms
•pig: try swine, artiodactyla, ungulate
•theriogenology = breeding
Enclose phrases in quotes “blood brain barrier”
Search in specific fields by using the
Advanced Search
Depending on the database, you can
search by author, title, institutional
affiliation, even journal title or
pharmaceutical action
Filters are your friend! After searching, use filters to narrow
results by publication date, language,
type of publication, and more.
Citing Your Work
• Citing your work is crucial to maintaining your professional
reputation. You must cite everything that is not common
knowledge, including:
– Free government publications (ex: CDC)
– Websites
– Unpublished works
– Images, graphs, anatomical drawings from books or articles
• This ebook tells you how to cite all types of materials:
