1 Searching the SafetyLit Database For On Key Injury Prevention Topics Documents in SafetyLit are not yet indexed with subject terms. Thus, a query of the archive database requires the use of textwords (the exact words used by the author). Unfortunately, because the field of injury prevention is multidisciplinary, there are often many synonyms that can be used to label any relevant concept. For a search to be comprehensive it is necessary to use each of the textword synonyms. Often a searcher will be unaware of some (or many) of the different words authors use to label important concepts. Table lists the textword synonyms (grouped by concept) used to query the SafetyLit database for the most searched for topics. The table includes added information: the total number of articles on the topic (that were available the week of July 3rd 7) and the number of articles that were available from a search that used the listed single textwords or textword phrases. It is clear that using only one or two synonyms will return only a portion of the available articles on any topic.
2 Table Most searched for concepts*, textword synonyms within each concept, and the proportion of available materialà that may be found with each textword Synonym`.
