Whether you’ve been using PubMed for years or are just getting to know it, there is always something to learn! Join us in this hands-on workshop as we cover basic and advanced searching techniques and what to do with search results, use the various tools PubMed has to offer, and more.

This session introduces you to CINAHL’s new interface and features and will focus on effective search techniques, understanding/using CINAHL Headings, using limits, creating alerts, saving citations into citation managers (Zotero & EndNote), accessing full text, and creating alerts or saved searches with a personalized folder.

During this workshop attendees will acquire a fundamental knowledge of how to use Zotero, including how to create an account, install tools, create and edit citations, attach PDFs to citations, create and share collections, and use the Microsoft Word plugin.

This workshop will introduce some key EndNote Desktop functions such as: creating a new library; importing citations; organizing, managing, and sharing citations; using the Microsoft Word plug-in; and using the Cite While You Write plugin for Google Docs. This workshop will use the new EndNote 2025 release, but will also be applicable to EndNote 21 users.

In this workshop, you will learn how to sign up for a free EndNote Basic account, authenticate your account with UW Madison to get access to additional styles, import citations from a variety of databases, create and share groups, and use the Cite While You Write plugin for Microsoft Word.
