This module reviewed some tools and techniques for expert PubMed searching using an example search. You used the MeSH Database to find the right scope and specificity for your search of PubMed.

This tutorial can only cover the mechanics of how PubMed works with MeSH and is no substitute for the knowledge and experience of an expert searcher. If you’re just starting out, partner with an experienced searcher at your health sciences library to learn.

In the next module you will expand your PubMed toolset with some techniques for special queries.
