New Library videos on effective literature searching

I've just published a series of short videos on the Library's Vimeo channel, taking you through the six steps to an effective literature search.
The videos are designed to viewed in order, but can also be viewed independently. The videos are available at http://vimeo.com/channels/lshtmlibrary/, or via the links below.

• 1.1 Asking searchable questions and choosing search concepts
• 1.2 Turning your topic into a searchable question using PICOST
• 1.3 Choosing limits
• 1.4 Modifying the scope of your search
• 2.1 Library catalogues, search engines and databases: what's the difference?
• 2.2 Choosing the most appropriate databases
• 3.1 Choosing your search terms
• 3.2 Subject headings, thesaurus terms and MeSH
• 4.1 Using truncation and Boolean operators
• 4.2 Using wildcards and proximity searching
• 4.3 Putting it all together: using the search history to complete your search strategy
• 5.1 Finding full text using SFX
• 6.1 Keeping notes on your search activities

I hope you find the vidoes useful, please leave feedback either on Vimeo or in the comments below. This is the first time the Library have tried to create videos on literature searching so we would be really interested in your feedback.
