6. Choose a language option Choose a language option. This tutorial will be in English.

7. Registration 1 Your institution must be registered for you to gain access to the full-text electronic resources. Click on the Register link to access the form – to see if your institution is registered or must complete this process.

8. Before registering your institution, you need to check if your organization already has registered. Click on the REGISTERED UNIVERSITIES AND PROFESSIONAL SCHOOLS link. This list is updated weekly. Note that you also can confirm that your institution is eligible for HINARI by clicking on the (check eligibility) link.

9. From the drop down menu, click on your country – to see the list of registered institutions. For this exercise, we have chosen Viet Nam.

10. If your institution is listed as registered, contact the Librarian for the User Name and Password. If you are not able to obtain this access information, contact HINARI via email (hinari@who.int) . Note: Only one registration per institution is required/allowed.

11. Registration 2 If not registered, enter the required information, Registration Check and click on Send Registration. The registration form requests considerable detail about your institution. To complete the registration, you may need to contact others at your institution. Once the institution is registered, the librarian will receive a HINARI User Name and Password. All members of the institution – researchers, teaching staff, librarians, students etc. – are entitled to use the institution’s User Name and Password.

12. Logging in to HINARI 1 Login to the HINARI website by clicking on LOGIN. Note: If you do not login into HINARI, you will not get access to the full text articles.

13. Workshop User Name/Password User Name: Password:

14. Logging into HINARI 2 We will need to insert our HINARI User Name and Password in the Login box and click on the Login button. Note: If you do not properly sign on, you will not have access to full text articles.

15. If you fail to use the Login page, you will have a second option on the Full text journals, databases, and other resources sub-page.

16. Once logged-in, you will be taken into the Full text journals, databases, and other resources sub-page of the website. Note the ‘You are logged’ in message. This proper login also can be confirmed by the http://hinari-gw.who.int/whalecomextranet... url

17. Accessing journals by title 1 Journals can be accessed by title from an alphabetical list. For this exercise, click on ‘L’ from the A-Z list. Note: there also is a View complete list of journals option.

18. We have displayed the ‘L’ journal list. Click on the title for The Lancet. The green box notes access to the contents of the journal for you while the ! notes that your institution is denied access (predominantly Band 2 although some Band 1). Note that the ‘years of volumes’ available are listed after the journal title.

19. Accessing journals by title 4 Another window will open at the journal publishers’ website.

20. For each article, there are three options: [Abstract], [Full Text] or [PDF] formats.

21. You can get the article in Full Text or HTMLformatthat includes links to sections of the article, bibliographic citations or related articles.

22. With the PDF or Portable Document Format, you will receive a scanned image of the article. This format is similar to the traditional print option . To download a PDF document, you will need a copy of the Adobe Acrobat program which can be download freely from the Adobe website: http://www.adobe.com

23. Full-text Article Access Problems Using the‘Journals by title A-Z’ list, we are attempting to access a full-text article from the Blood. Although HINARI users should have access to this journal, we will use this as an example of ‘what could go wrong.’

24. Access problems can be caused by: • failure to properly LOGIN with the institution's User Name/Password • technical problems at the Publisher's website • 3) or problems with local systems (configuration of user institution’s • firewall, configuration of browser)   • 4) the publisher has not authorized access – mostly for Band 2 countries Consequently, you may see a message on the Publisher‘ denying access and requesting LOGIN or payment for the specific article. Note: Your HINARI institutional ‘User Name/Password’ will NOT work.

25. To confirm that you have used the institutional User Name and Password correctly, check that you have the ‘You are logged in’ message. This also is confirmed in the address or URL search box of the web browser. If properly ‘authenticated’, you will see a URL that begins with: http://hinari-gw.who.int/whalecom...

26. Double check that you have completed the HINARI LOGIN.  If this is not the problem, notify HINARI staff (hinari@who.int) so that they can communicate with the Publisher and resolve the problem. This example is an email received from a HINARI user in Uganda. Note:make sure you include your institutional User Name, the name of the journal(s) and other details. Also include a screen capture that contains the URL (Internet address) of the journal (seen next slide).

27. This is the example of the screen capture that was attached to the email message for hinari@who.int For the JEM article, it noted that This item requires a subscription. The publisher requested that the user Sign in (User Name and Password for individual subscription) or Purchase Short-Term Access. Note:this screen capture includes the URL of the journal. This information is invaluable to the HINARI staff who will try to resolve the access problem. You can create a screen capture by clicking on the Print Screen key while viewing the webpage of the journal.  Then paste (edit/paste or control/v) the material into a word processing document and send as an attachment.

28. This additional screen capture notes that the journal is listed on the J page of the Journals by Title A-Z list, that the requested journal issue is available and that, by the green box, the institution should have access to the journal. If the HINARI authentication system had worked properly, the user would have had access to the journal article.
