4.3 Questioning Questioning BDSP

ATTENTION , new configuration BDSP since July 2010

The BDSP (Data Bank or Public Health) ( http://www.bdsp.tm.fr/ ) offers a discounted basis of bibliographic items, including most of the periodicals in the library. To access the references of articles about your search, we must first define keywords to use (note the keywords from the BDSP are only used in the BDSP).

From the home page of the BDSP, you can move into the site using the bar placed at the top of the page containing the menu entitled THE SERVICES . You can also use direct access to the right of the homepage.

Walkthrough
On the home page, click the link back to the Thesaurus , or on the following link: http://www.bdsp.tm.fr/TSP3/Default.asp

On the thesaurus, begin the search by specifying the desired term in the field (watch only one term at a time and truncation implicit default = *).

The result indicates
Given a list of terms: keyword accepted in blue, keyword refused gray (this list reflects the syntax used in the thesaurus. For example: no items , no plural etc.).

If the term is not used in the thesaurus, repeat the process by extending your query to synonyms, concepts or close to a class incorporating the concept. For example: "malignant tumor" is not directly accepted as a keyword, it must refer to the category "Pathology" and instead use the keyword "cancer".

Once defined keywords (think go to the most specific, as specific as possible), go to the page with search (Documentary base) from the button "SERVICES", or click the link: http://www.bdsp.tm.fr/Base/QbeA.asp

Enter or keywords in the Keywords field . If multiple keywords to associate, then use the operator "and . The keywords are indicated in brackets. For example: [care] and [child]

Remember to check the options of search and display: year of publication, language, document type article or full text documents etc. .

If you have not found the correct term for your search with the thesaurus, then enter the word that seems most relevant in the input area of the simple search. This allows the engine to perform a search on the all elements of the references (including abstracts and titles) and not only keywords. Think also

field Document title to submit your application, knowing that the title of a document concerning the most often but not always, its contents.

You can also view all bibliographic records of articles relating to a single serial title, from the field Journal the search page or at Collections button on the page of Home in the Services menu, or from the following link: http://www.bdsp.tm.fr/Periodiques/Default.asp ( This approach also allows you to access the ISSN of the journal selected.)

At the display the results list as brief records , select the relevant records, and view the full records clicking. If you are registered on the site you can also pick up leaflets and a selection.

Compare the title and year of the period used with the list of periodicals in the library collection, distributed at the beginning of training and available at section 1.4 The periodical subscriptions.

If the periodical is received at the library, you can see the site (note pre-1990 periodicals are archived).

If the periodical is not received by the library, follow the directions below record BDSP to access the document:
example the gate DocRef ( DocRef ) of INIST- CNRS
Either by contacting the center of the record producer via the link provided (usually but not always, Photocopies are available with shipping).

But you can also query the catalog SUDOC ( http://cuivre.sudoc.abes.fr/ ) by taking the correct title Journal or ISSN (International Standard Serial Number), and locate the University Libraries of Medicine (including that of Nancy) and university libraries (including that of Metz), where the periodical collection is requested (indicating the location the paper on the headband of the page full record of the outcome of periodic SUDOC with the "Where to find this document ?). Once verified the availability of periodic form of reproduction (photocopies) for interlibrary loan (ILL), go to BU Metz and ask the office ready to get the document after registering as drive from the hotel (by free registration agreement for students in hospital schools of Metz) and opening an account at the office of the PEB. Rates copies you want, you will be given. After registration and opening your account, you can also fill out the ILL request online portal of SCD Metz ( link ).

To follow the process of interrogating the SUDOC, go to Section 4.6.

An example of research with the BDSP
I am seeking information on tracheostomy care.
I check if the term exists in the thesaurus with the query: tracheo *.
If the word does not exist, then I question the database directly with the term to the simple search page.
The term "Tracheotomy" exists (phew!), It belongs to the category "Health technology". I record
"tracheostomy" in the Champs Keywords of the document database.
A list of brief entries appears.
I select and post the full records that interest me, I compare the list of journals in library membership, and I download the relevant documents in open access.
