<p>In many library catalogs the search terms are automatically linked with “AND” (more about “And” and other operators can be found in <ahref="../modul3/">unit 3</a>). </p>

<p>If you enter more than 3 search terms in the library catalog of the Chemnitz University Library, 3 will always be linked with “AND” and all others with “OR” -
similar to a Google Search. However, you can control this links by using the advanced search.</p>

<p>Sometimes the search result may not match the search terms at first sight. For example, some systems search for similar terms. If you enter “child”, hits with children,
adopted child, preschool child, girl, boy etc. will also be found.</p>
<p>And where can you search if you have not found what you are looking for in the library catalog? For your literature search you are not only
bound to the holdings in your local library. In addition to this catalog, there are union catalogs and
restricted to the holdings in your local library. In addition to this catalog, there are union catalogs and

<h2class="text-primary">Course reserved collection – selected literature for a course</h2>
<p>Conventional course reserved collections consist media that your lecture have compiled for a specific course from the library holding. These
<?phpget_popover('semester','course reserved collections');?> are stored in the library separately from the normal open access holding.
<p>Conventional course reserved collections consist of media that your lecturer has compiled for a specific course from the library holding. These
<?phpget_popover('semester','course reserved collections');?> are stored in the library separately from the normal open access holdings.
As a rule, they remain for one semester, sometimes even for several semesters.</p>
<p>The literature in the course reserved collection is so important that it is excluded from normal lending. If there is a book in the course reserved collection, you can see this in our example in the record display in the catalog. Here you can also see which course reserved collection it is in. This is what it looks like:</p>

<p>Was ist denn überhaupt eine <?phpget_popover('database','Datenbank');?>?</p>
<p>In der Bibliothek verstehen wir unter einer Datenbank eine Datenbankanwendung. In diesen können Sie große Sammlungen von Daten strukturiert abfragen.
Das können Daten aus Bibliothekskatalogen, Bibliografien oder Textsammlungen sein.</p>
<p>What is a <?phpget_popover('database','database');?>?</p>
<p>In the library we understand a database to be a database application. In these you can query large collections of data in a structured way.
This can be data from library catalogs, bibliographies or text collections.</p>
<p>Einfacher gesagt: Eine Datenbank enthält möglichst vollständig Literatur, beispielsweise Artikel aus Fachzeitschriften, zu einem bestimmten Thema,
unabhängig vom Bestand der Bibliothek. Alle Datenbanken finden Sie im <?phpget_popover('dbis_term','Datenbankinformationssystem');?>.</p>
<p>To put it more simply: a database contains as much literature as possible, for example articles from subject specific journals, on a specific
topic, independent of the library's holdings. All databases can be found in the <?phpget_popover('dbis_term','database information system');?>.</p>
<h2class="text-primary">Das Datenbankinformationssystem - Ihr Weg zur passenden Datenbank</h2>
<h2class="text-primary">The Database Information System - Your way to the suitable database</h2>
<p>Es gibt eine Menge Datenbanken, die entweder frei im Web verfügbar sind oder von Ihrer UniBibliothek lizenziert werden.
Und wie finden Sie die richtige Datenbank? Dabei hilft Ihnen das <ahref="http://dbis.uni-regensburg.de/dbinfo/fachliste.php?bib_id=tuche&lett=l&colors=&ocolors="
<p>There are a lot of databases that are either freely available on the web or licensed by your University Library. And how do you find the right database?
The <ahref="http://dbis.uni-regensburg.de/dbinfo/fachliste.php?bib_id=tuche&lett=l&colors=&ocolors="class="linkextern"target="blank">Database Information System (DBIS)</a>
will help you find the right database.</p>
<p>In diesem können Sie nach den Namen der Datenbanken suchen (nicht IN Datenbanken). Hier haben Sie verschiedene Möglichkeiten:</p>
<p>Here you can search for the names of the databases (not IN databases). You have different options:</p>
<ul>
<li>auf der Startseite von <?phpget_popover('dbis_term','DBIS');?> können Sie in der
<strong>Fachübersicht</strong> nach Ihrem Studienfach suchen und bekommen dann alle relevanten Datenbanken angezeigt.</li>
<li>Sie haben aber auch die Möglichkeit, sich alle gelisteten Datenbanken in <strong>alphabetischer Reihenfolge</strong> anzeigen zu lassen.</li>
<li>Wenn Sie bereits wissen, mit welcher Datenbank Sie arbeiten möchten, können Sie den Suchschlitz der <strong>einfachen Suche</strong> nutzen.</li>
<li>Daneben gibt es auch in DBIS eine erweiterte Suche. In der Suchmaske können Sie sich die Datenbanken herausfiltern lassen, die zu Ihren Suchkriterien passen.</li>
<li>on the <?phpget_popover('dbis_term','DBIS');?> homepage you can search for your subject in the <strong>subject overview</strong> and all relevant
databases will then be displayed.</li>
<li>However, you also have the option of displaying all listed databases in <strong>alphabetical order</strong>.</li>
<li>If you already know which database you would like to work with, you can use the search slot of the <strong>Simple Search</strong>.</li>
<li>There is also an advanced search in DBIS. In the search mask, you can filter out the databases that match your search criteria. </li>
<p>Bevor Sie überhaupt eine Suche in der Datenbank starten, schauen Sie sich die Fragestellung genau an: Wie lautet Ihr Thema, wonach suchen Sie? Das heißt, Sie:</p>
<h3class="text-danger">Analysis of the topic</h3>
<p>Before you even start a search in the database, take a closer look at the question: What is your topic, what are you looking for? That is, you:</p>
<ul>
<li>klären die <strong>Begriffe</strong> Ihres Themas</li>
<li>erstellen eine <strong>Wortliste</strong></li>
<li>denken an <strong>Ober- und Unterbegriffe</strong> sowie <strong>Synonyme</strong> und <strong>verwandte Begriffe</strong></li>
<li>berücksichtigen <strong>fremdsprachliche Bezeichnungen</strong> mit ihren <strong>unterschiedlichen Schreibweisen
(britisches und amerikanisches Englisch)</strong></li>
<p>Ihr Hausarbeitsthema berücksichtigt nicht nur einen Suchaspekt? Um mehrere Aspekte gleichzeitig abzudecken, können Sie Ihre Suchbegriffe kombinieren.
Zur Verknüpfung Ihrer Suchbegriffe setzen Sie dabei die <?phpget_popover('booleanoperator','Booleschen Operatoren');?> ein:</p>
<p>Your homework topic does not only consider one search aspect? You can combine your search terms to cover several aspects at the same time.
To link your search terms, set the <?phpget_popover('booleanoperator','Boolean operators');?>:</p>
