  Abstract: The report presents the results of an evaluation of CORE MEDLINE/EBSCO CD-ROM, SilverPlatter and KnowledgeFinder, all MEDLINE products tested at the University of Utah Health Sciences Library. The purpose of the study was to analyse user satisfaction with these systems both in a library setting and in an clinical situation. The majority of the users stated that EBSCO CD-ROM was easy to use and seemed to be the best MEDLINE subset

  Abstract: The report describes an evaluation conducted at the Library of the Health Sciences, Univ. of Illinois College of Medicine at Rockford, of KnowledgeFinder, a CD-ROM MEDLINE product. The evaluation was conducted in two stages. The first stage was designed primarily to determine who used KnowledgeFinder and how it was used. A secondary objective was to explore certain aspects of the user interface that are unique to KnowledgeFinder. In the second stage, the KnowledgeFinder was installed in a clinical setting

  Brenner, S.H. ; McKinin, E.J.: CINAHL and MEDLINE : a comparison of indexing practices.
  In: Medical library association. 77(1989) no.4, S.366-371.
  
  Abstract: A random sample of 50 nursing articles indexed in both MEDLINE and CINAHL during 1986 was used for comparing indexing pratices. Indexing was analysed by counting the number of major descriptors, the number of major and minor descriptors, the number of indexing access points, the number of common indexing access points, and the number and type of unique indexing points. The study results indicate: there are few differences in the number of major descriptors used, MEDLINE uses almost twice as many descriptors, MEDLINE has almost twice as many indexing access points, and MEDLINE and CINAHL provide few common access points.

  Sievert, M.E. ; McKinin, E.J.: Why full-text misses some relevant documents : an analysis of documents not retrieved by CCML or MEDIS.
  In: ASIS'89. Managing information and technology. Proceedings of the 52nd annual meeting of the American Society for Information Science, Washington D.C., 30.10.-2.11.1989. Vol.26. Ed.by J. Katzer and G.B. Newby. Medford, New Jersey : Learned Information, 1989. S.34-39.
  
  Abstract: Searches conducted as part of the MEDLINE/Full-Text Research Project revealed that the full-text data bases of clinical medical journal articles (CCML (Comprehensive Core Medical Library) from BRS Information Technologies, and MEDIS from Mead Data Central) did not retrieve all the relevant citations. An analysis of the data indicated that 204 relevant citations were retrieved only by MEDLINE. A comparison of the strategies used on the full-text data bases with the text of the articles of these 204 citations revealed that 2 reasons contributed to these failure. The searcher often constructed a restrictive strategy which resulted in the loss of relevant documents; and as in other kinds of retrieval, the problems of natural language caused the loss of relevant documents.

  Kahn, P.: Making a difference : a review of the user interface features in six CD-ROM database products.
  In: Optical information systems. 8(1988) no.4, S.169-183.
  
  Abstract: When considering an end-user's need to access information in a large data base, the real difference introduced by CD-ROM is not access from the personal computer per se, but local access from the personal computer. The question that must ne asked is this: should this difference affect the design of the user interface for searching large data bases on CD-ROM? 6 CD-ROM bibliographic data base products are reviewed: BRS/colleague MEDLINE, Wilsondisc Cumulative Book Index and MLA International bibliography, Dialog OnDisc ERIC, SilverPlatter Sociofile, CCOHS (Reteaco Findit) CCINFOdisc, and KnowledgeFinder MEDLINE. The user interface and functionality of each product is discussed in terms of 5 criteria: browsing, using menus, refining a search, accessing an on-line version, and printing and saving results. This review distinguishes between design features in each product which are holdovers from the on-line command interfaces of the past and innovations in user interface design made possible by having the data base locally on CD-ROM

  In: ASIS'88. Information technology: planning for the next fifty years. Proceedings of the 51st annual meeting of the American Society for Information Science, Atlanta, Georgia, 23-27.10.1988. Vol.25. Ed. by C.L. Borgman and E.Y.H. Pai. Medford, New Jersey : Learned Information, 1988. S.143-146.
  
  Abstract: The availability of two full text data bases in the clinical medical journal literature, MEDIS from Mead Data Central and CCML from BRS Information Technologies, provided an opportunity to compare the efficacy of the full text to the traditional, indexed system, MEDLINE for retrieval effectiveness. 100 searches were solicited from an academic health sciences library and the request were searched on all 3 data bases. The results were compared and preliminary analysis suggests that the full text data bases retrieve a greater number of relevant citations and MEDLINE achieves higher precision.

  Abstract: This study systematically compares retrievals on 11 topics across five well-known data bases, with MEDLINE's subject indexing as a focus. Each topic was posed by a researcher in the medical behavioral sciences. Each was searches in MEDLINE, EXCERPTA MEDICA, and PSYCHINFO, which permit descriptor searches, and in SCISEARCH and SOCIAL SCISEARCH, which express topics through cited references. Searches on each topic were made with (1) descriptors, (2) cited references, and (3) natural language (a capabiblity common to all five data bases). The researchers who posed the topics judged the results. In every case, the set of records judged relevant was used to to calculate recall, precision, and novelty ratios. Overall, MEDLINE had the highest recall percentage (37%), followed by SSCI (31%). All searches resulted in high precision ratios; novelty ratios of data bases and searches varied widely. Differences in record format among data bases affected the success of the natural language retrievals. Some 445 documents judged relevant were not retrieved from MEDLINE using its descriptors; they were found in MEDLINE through natural language or in an alternative data base. An analysis was performed to examine possible faults in MEDLINE subject indexing as the reason for their nonretrieval. However, no patterns of indexing failure could be seen in those documents subsequently found in MEDLINE through known-item searches. Documents not found in MEDLINE primarily represent failures of coverage - articles were from nonindexed or selectively indexed journals
