Finding & Renewing Library Books, Journals and other Materials
-
How do I find a book, journal, and other
materials?
To find the location of a book or journal at the Library, search Tri-Cat, the joint online catalog of Weill Cornell Medical Library,
Rockefeller University and Memorial Sloan-Kettering. The Electronic Resources web page contains links to some electronic resources, including journals, not listed
in Tri-Cat.
-
How do I check out a book, journal or
other Library materials?
To check materials out of the Library, you need a current ID card from the Weill Cornell Medical College
and Graduate School of Medical Sciences, the NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, or an affiliated institution with
borrowing authorization. [To find out if your institution is affiliated, please call the Library Circulation
Desk, (212) 746-6050] Bring your ID to the Circulation Desk and we will register you for borrowing privileges
and affix a Library barcode to the back of your ID card. Each time you need to borrow, present your bar-coded
ID card to the desk staff. For additional information, please see the loan periods and policies.
-
How can I renew my Library materials
without coming to the Library?
You can renew a book on the web by going to Tri-Cat and selecting Look Up Your Record. Follow the instructions on the screen.
Note: Overdue items cannot be renewed on the web. You can also renew by phone. Call the circulation desk at
(212) 746-6050. Note: Items less than seven days overdue can be renewed by phone; items more than seven days
overdue must be renewed in person.
-
How can I get a copy of an article from
a journal volume, which has a catalog location of bind hold or a catalog status of bind prep or repair?
Please ask at the Circulation Desk. The Library Assistant will ask you to fill out a purple form for bindery
hold/prep items. Items in bindery hold/prep are housed in a non-public area. If there are two people at the
desk, a photocopy of the article can usually be made for you right away. The guaranteed turnaround time is
24 hours. Repair items can be in a number of places and may take a day to locate. Again, please ask for help
at the Circulation Desk. Items already at the bindery are off the premises and unavailable until the return
date specified in Tri-Cat. Check Tri-Cat for electronic versions or copies at MSK or RUL. If no
other copies are available, you can request the item through Interlibrary Loan.
-
What if the Library doesn't own the
journal or book I want?
Faculty, staff and students of the Weill Medical College and Graduate School of Medical Sciences of Cornell
University, as well as staff of the Weill Cornell Center of NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital can request interlibrary
services for obtaining journal articles and books not in our collection. The National Interlibrary Loan Code,
the Copyright Act, network and local agreements and the regulations of the individual lending libraries set
the conditions of this service. For additional information, please see the Interlibrary Loan FAQ. All requests may be submitted in writing on forms supplied by the Interlibrary
Services Department and obtained at the Circulation Desk. You may also request items online via the Interlibrary Loan Request Form available from Interlibrary
Services located under the 'Weill Cornell Medical Library' button on our home page. Tri-Cat should be checked
for holdings. Every effort should be made to locate the document in the WCMC paper or electronic collections
and the collections of Rockefeller University or the Memorial Sloan-Kettering libraries. You may also recommend
items for purchase by the Library. Please use the Recommend an Item form from Tri-Cat or contact Mark
Funk, Head of Collection Development.

How do I find a list of articles on a particular
topic or by a certain author?
To find a list of articles on a particular topic, try searching a bibliographic database such as MEDLINE /PubMed. Bibliographic databases can be searched many ways, including author, keyword, and Medical
Subject Headings. MEDLINE is a great place to start, but the Library has online bibliographic databases specific
to many disciplines, including Aging (AGELINE), Alternative Medicine (AMED and Mantis), Behavioral Sciences
(PsycINFO), Chemistry (SciFinder Scholar) and Nursing (CINAHL). The list of databases is available through
an Alphabetical Quick Connect pull-down on the Electronic Resources page.
-
My list of article citations contains
abbreviations for the journal titles. How can I find the full name of the journals?
If the citations come from MEDLINE, the Journal Browser feature of PubMed can help you.
Simply type in the abbreviation from your list. The results will contain the full title which you can then
use to search the Library's catalog, Tri-Cat.
Please note: Always use the full title of the journal when searching Tri-Cat. If you search the catalog for
a journal title abbreviation, many times the only entry that will come up is one at Rockefeller's Library.
-
How can I get a copy of a scale, test
or questionnaire I need to use in my research?
There are a number of Library resources you can use to search for this type of information. In addition
to information about obtaining tests, it is also possible to find summaries of a test, articles about a test,
and sometimes the test itself reprinted in other publications. The Library has produced a handout on Finding Measurement Instruments (7 page
PDF) that explains the resources mentioned below. The American
Psychological Association's FAQ/Finding Information About Psychological Tests may also be useful.
- A. Search PsycINFO from the Library's Electronic Resources page.
- B. Search the index of the Mental Measurements Yearbook (REF BF 431 M539), Tests in Print (REF Z 5814.E9
T342), Van Riezen, Comparative evaluation of rating scales in clinical psychopharmacology (REF WM 141 V217c
1988), Spreen, A compendium of neuropsychological tests (REF WL 141 S768c 1998).
- C. Search MEDLINE or CINAHL by subject or name of test/rating scale etc.
- D. Search the Health and Psychosocial Instruments (HAPI) database. If you need assistance with HAPI, please contact
the Information Desk (212) 746-6055 or infodesk@med.cornell.edu.
-
How can I find the complete citation
for a book chapter, conference proceedings or meeting abstracts?
-
How can I find an article from a recent
issue of the New York Times?
The Circulation Desk keeps the most recent week of the NYT. The older issues are kept for two months at
the Circulation Desk. Full-text articles (without images) can be obtained using Lexis-Nexis® which is available through the Cornell Library Gateway.
-
How can I find scientific images for
my projects and presentations?
The Library has compiled a guide to Finding Images on the Web or in Print. Many
sites allow free use of the images for teaching and educational purposes, but you should always read the terms
of use. Each site should list its own terms and conditions for use of the images.

How do I get a Weill Cornell Medical
College/Graduate School dissertation?
-
How do I find the Impact Factor of
a journal? Is there a way to find this information online?
Impact factors are published in a resource called Journal Citation Reports (JCR).
The JCR is a unique tool for journal evaluation using citation data drawn from over 8,400 journals in science,
technology, and social sciences from more than 3,000 publishers worldwide. Access the JCR online for data from
the last two years using the Electronic Resources page or directly at http://jcrweb.com/. For data from previous years, use the printed JCR at the Information Desk. The JCR
can show you the highest impact journals; most frequently used journals; hottest journals; largest journals.
The journal impact factor is a measure of the frequency with which the "average article" in a journal
has been cited in a particular year. The impact factor helps evaluate a journal's relative importance, especially
compared to others in the same field. The impact factor is calculated by dividing the number of current citations
to articles published in the two previous years by the total number of articles published in the two previous
years.

I have a veterinary medicine question--can
you help with questions about animal treatment?
The WCMC Library does have access to some databases with veterinary medicine information, however the main
veterinary collection is at the Flower-Sprecher Veterinary Library in Ithaca--visit its website at http://www.vet.cornell.edu/library/. One free resource that you could search for the online medical and
veterinary literature is MEDLINE/PubMed from the National Library of Medicine -- http://www.pubmed.gov/. This database includes humans and animals, so be sure to specify the animal species
in your search.
If you are not affiliated with Cornell, the Flower-Sprecher Veterinary Library at Cornell University in
Ithaca has a fee-based information and document delivery service for pet owners, veterinarians and others called "VetAccess." Information
about specific services and costs is available on the VetAccess website.

Accessing Online Resources
-
How can I get access to the WCMC electronic
journals and databases from home? Why can't I access from outside the Library?
From the Weill Medical College and Graduate School of Medical Sciences, NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, Olin
Hall and Lasdon House networks you may access the Library's electronic journals and all the other electronic
resources of the Library. If you are a Weill Cornell Medical Center employee or student remote/off campus access
to networked resources is available from Information Technologies and Services (ITS) using WebVPN or other
forms of off campus access. See the ITS Remote Access
page for details.
If you are a New York Presbyterian Hospital employee remote access to networked resources is handled by
Core Resources. Networked resources does not include Library resources. See the Core Resources VPN Access page for details.
From non-networked computer you have access to our catalog of materials owned by the Library. This catalog, Tri-Cat, is produced by our Library and is made freely available on the Library's web site at http://library.med.cornell.edu/. On the Electronic Resources page, databases marked with an ** are free resources available outside of the computer
network. The most important of these databases is MEDLINE, brought to you by the National Library of Medicine,
which is available through an interface called PubMed at http://www.pubmed.gov/. PubMed is federally supported and is distributed to anyone with access to the
Internet. Some items have a [Free Version] label. Although accessible from any computer, the free version may
have fewer features than the version provided by the Library.
For those who are interested in learning more about a growing movement to make scholarly literature available on the Internet, free of charge, we invite you to read the Library's Open Access page.
- What does "VPN not available"
mean?/What e-resources are not available from home or outside the network?
E-resource that are not available utilizing VPN technology are marked with "VPN not available".
Currently, UpToDate is not accessible with VPN access. This means there will be no access from home/off campus
granted even if you have VPN software installed on your workstation and/or if you have been authenticated using
Web VPN.
-
Where can I get a list of all your
electronic journals? What is the password for the electronic journals?
The Electronic Journals page is the most up-to-date listing of our electronic journals. A printable current list is available as a PDF file (requires Adobe Acrobat Reader). There is no single
password for electronic journals that require them. Journals that require a password are marked *password.
When you click on the title, the username & password will be automatically supplied if you are using a
Netscape browser (version 3 or above) AND your computer is part of the NewYork Weill Cornell Medical Center
network. If you cannot access the username & password or have any other questions, please call the Library's
Information Desk at (212) 746-6055.
-
How can I print or download the full
text of articles from electronic journals? Which version should I choose?
Most electronic journal publishers give you a choice of PDF of HTML versions of the articles. Once you are
viewing the article on the screen, you can use the browser's Print or Save commands to print or download that
article. PDF is the most popular because the printouts look exactly like a copy of the print article and maintain
pagination and chart size/placement. The free Adobe Acrobat Reader software is required to view PDF files. HTML versions produce regular web pages and
do not require any helper software. The drawback of HTML is that the page numbering of your printout out may
not be the same as the original article, and graphics may be separate files that you have to enlarge and/or
print separately. The benefits to HTML versions are that you can copy and paste text from these articles into
other documents and that you can often download or enlarge the graphics for more in-depth study.
-
What does a "TOO MANY USERS" message
mean when I try to connect to MD Consult?
The Library has been able to purchase seven licenses from MD Consult. If, at the same time, eight or more
individuals attempt to connect using passwords created at the NewYork Weill Cornell Medical Center this message
will appear. If you wait for a reasonable period of time you may have better results. This period of time is
actually defined by how long the current users of MD Consult maintain their link. There is no automatic queue.

What is the difference between
PubMed and Ovid?
Both products bring you MEDLINE, plus more. PubMed is a database containing MEDLINE, PreMEDLINE (citations provided to the database from publishers
before the citations are edited and subject headings are added) and other literature citations created and
produced by the National Library of Medicine. Ovid
Technologies created its own web-based searching software for searching a variety of databases including
MEDLINE, PreMEDLINE, EBM (Evidence Based Medicine) Reviews, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews (literature
reviewed for excellence in research methodology), Cancerlit, CINAHL (Cumulated Index to Nursing and Allied
Health Literature), and EMBASE (Excerpta Medica Database, a major biomedical and pharmaceutical database well
known for its international scope). Ovid's interface allows one to run the same search across mulitple databases.
This feature enhances the results by taking advantage of the unique focus of these various databases. There
are advantages and limitations to both the PubMed and Ovid interfaces. Classes and consultations are provided by librarians for
complete instruction on how to exploit these resources to your best advantage.
-
Where can I find a medical dictionary
online?
From the Library's resources, you can first turn to STAT!Ref for the 2000 version of Stedman's Medical Dictionary.
Look for STAT!Ref from the alphabetical quick connect menu on our Electronic Resources page. Once at the STAT!Ref homepage, click on
"dictionary" at the top of the page. Another online, or internet based medical dictionary available at no cost
is the Merriam Webster Medical Dictionary.
