 Hello and welcome to this week's edition of Encompass Live, I am Krista Burns at the Nebraska Library Commission. Encompass Live is the Library Commission's weekly online event where we cover various library commission activities, library topics presented by commission staff and we have guest speakers sometimes. We do these sessions every Wednesday morning at 10 a.m. They generally run for an hour officially if they go that long and they are recorded so you can listen to them after the session is done. This morning we have Susan Nicely here is going to give us a tour of the new e-library. I'll just run this up and you're good to go. Do you want to switch right over to that? Let's just make sure that it's sharing that, yeah. Just checking out the technicalities of this. Okay. Well hello this is Susan. I'm glad you all could be here today. This is my first time using GoToMeeting but Krista assures me that it's very easy and intuitive but I just want to warn you that I may fumble a little bit. If somebody asks a question it may take me a second or two to notice and figure out how to how to read your entire question and get back to you so hopefully that would be a problem. I would like to talk today about the new e-library interface which was introduced on June 26th this summer. Some of you have probably had a chance to look at it a little bit. I've spent quite a bit of time trying to explore it and so hopefully I can highlight some of the new functionality as well as review some of what carries over from the old interface. E-library is one of several databases that the state pays for for access on behalf of libraries across the state. E-library is a little different than some of the databases that we provide access to because it is not licensed for use in K-12 schools. E-library is available through public libraries and academic libraries and then certainly anyone who is a patron of a public or academic library can get a username and password or I should say a Nebraska access password and access e-library from home as well. I'm going to take you into e-library through the new Nebraska access homepage. Again, this is something that hopefully most of you have had a chance to use. It's been available for quite a while though the old Nebraska access page did go away July 1st so we do have some people who are particularly K-12 schools that are coming back to school and people are seeing it for the first time. So I did think I would start on the main Nebraska access homepage and take you into e-library the way that you and your patrons would normally access it. So this is the main Nebraska access homepage. In the past, you'll remember that you had to choose between three login icons. There was a library icon, a login icon and a K-12 school icon. That was one of the things that we wanted to move away from when we redesigned Nebraska access and so now there is one link that people can click on to access the list of databases regardless of what type of institution they are affiliated with or where they are accessing the site from be at home or school or from their vacation resort in Montana. So when you go to the Nebraska access homepage there's going to be on the top right hand column on every page there is a link that says databases available to Nebraskans and we've also included a little login button just as a prompt to people who were really used to clicking on that login button on the old Nebraska access website. So you can either click on the login button or the text is also a link. So we'll click on the databases available to Nebraskans. This takes you to a page listing the particular databases that are available through the program and you'll see E-library is listed at the top in the magazines and newspapers category. E-library is a 100% full text database and one of the reasons that it is unique is that it not only includes full text articles from magazine and journals, it also includes full text articles from newspapers. That means that it's very current and up to date. You can often find new stories that ran in yesterday's paper. So it's a great place for current events as in just happening. It also includes TV and radio transcripts, audio video clips, full text content from some reference books. So it's a little broader in terms of what it provides access to. I'm going to go ahead and just click on the link to log into the database and I will say that this is actually the point at which authentication occurs in the new E-library and we hopefully have streamlined this a bit so that your patrons, it'll be seamless for your patrons in many situations. You've got IP access in your library and your patrons are accessing from the library. They'll get in automatically without being prompted for a username or a login. If they are using it from home then they'll get prompted for their Nebraska Access password. So let's go ahead and click in and hopefully our IP access will work and it did. This is the new E-library homepage. Those of you who are familiar with the old E-library will see some differences. The old E-library was a bit more colorful. They had lots of different colored icons on it for source types. They've gone with a sleeker, leaner look. I think they're really trying to capture that Google single search box look. You have the basic search box and then you have the source type icons down below that lets you limit your search to particular types of sources. You can see by default all the different source types are included in your search but you can change that by unchecking check boxes in order to, for example, not include audio and video clips in your search results. One thing that you'll notice is missing from the new E-library homepage is the advanced search options. In the old E-library you used to have advanced search options on the lower half of the page so patrons got the basic search options on the top of the page and then they scroll down and see the advanced search options right away. I personally have mixed feelings about this. I actually liked having the advanced search options on the main page because it put them right to their front and center in front of the patron so that they knew there were options for narrowing and refining their search. Now ProQuest has moved the advanced advanced search options to a separate page and my fear is really that patrons won't ever get beyond the basic search page and therefore they won't know that they can limit their search, for example, by date or limit to a particular magazine or journal, those sorts of things. So that's something that you may have your own personal opinion about also but that is one of the changes in the new E-library. Just as in the past you can click on the source type icons at this point if you want to see title lists so if you want to see, for example, a list of all the newspapers that are included in E-library you can just come down here and click on the newspapers icon and this is actually something I always encourage people to spend a little time doing because I think it helps you get a sense of the depth and breadth of coverage in E-library when you see the types of publications that are included. The newspaper list is alphabetical and if you scroll through it you'll see that there are newspapers from lots of different cities in the United States, there are also newspapers from other countries, news services, wire services, if you look through the list you'll really start getting a sense of what sort of information you can get access to and it does, it's a good reminder that you can maybe get a perspective from some of these articles that's different than what you might get in just straight U.S. publications. You can get an international perspective. You can scroll through the A's and then go to the B's etc. I'm just going to go ahead and jump to the O's because I do want to emphasize the fact that the Omaha World Herald is included in this database. That's very good news for us in Nebraska because it does allow us to search this database and get some local coverage. There are going to be articles in the whole Omaha World Herald about local issues that would never make it into national publications like Time or Newsweek so that is good to know about if you have a patron that's coming and you're looking for something that's specifically Nebraska related. When you click on a title you'll actually get some coverage information. It tells you that coverage runs from February 26, 2004 through August 17, 2009. You'll see we've got content from two days ago so it is updated very quickly. Then they do have some older issues that are included but you can't necessarily count on every issue prior to February 2004 being included. You can see here they do list all of the daily issues that are included. If I wanted to come in and for instance look at all of the articles from the August 17, 2009 Omaha World Herald, I can click on that link and it will pull them up. It looks like they've got 27 results and to me that looks small so I would say they're just in the process of loading. August 17th issue and not all of the articles are available yet just based on my experience of how many articles you usually find in a particular issue. I'm going to go ahead and click on the eLibrary logo and jump back to the main search screen and go ahead and start talking about searching. Whoops, somehow I got jumped to the advanced search screen. Let's go back to the basic. The first search that I'm going to do is going to allow me to show you something that eLibrary added that's new. Basically what they've done is they have added something that they call smart content or essential pages. These essential pages are actually created by editors at ProQuest and the way they describe it is it's their attempt to bring best of resources front and center and to provide context for the most frequently studied and queried topics. So they've gone in and they've thought about what topics do people typically search on what are topics that students typically write reports on or are interested in and they have created some pre-packaged collections of resources on those particular topic areas. So I'm going to go ahead and type in a search that I know will bring up one of those pages so you can get a sense of what it looks like. So global warming. Now typically your patrons are going to stumble on these essential pages just as a result of searching on one of these topics but I will show you in a minute how you yourself can find a list of all of the topics that they're available for. So when you do a search and it matches one of those essential pages topic areas you'll get one of these pages or documents at the top of your result list. You do have to expand it to see the full thing. This is fairly typical of what you can expect. Each page opens with what they call a high impact image from their image collection and also a key article that provides in-depth information on the topic. So you've got the start of the article right here. They give you the first couple paragraphs and then there's a link for more and when you click on it it takes you to the full text of the article. In this case it was an article written by Al Gore that originally appeared in Rolling Stone magazine. The one thing that drives me crazy is every time you come back to this page you have to re-expand the document so that's just a personal annoyance on my part. If you scroll down you'll see what they call their gallery and again these are a few additional images from their image collection that relate to the topic area. If you click on one of the images you will get a brief description of it and you will also get a link to the full size JPEG of the image and I did sit in on some online training sessions that ProQuest held on the new eLibrary interface and they did specifically talk about the fact that this full size JPEG link is included because it's going to be useful to students who might want to download the picture and use in a report. So you know they're well aware that that is the use that students are going to make of it and they intend that so they are well aware of you know the fair use and educational fair use and are trying to facilitate students being able to use the images that way. Okay we're going to go back to our page and expand it. Underneath images you'll have a few links to articles in the reading section and basically what the editors have tried to do is find a handful of some of the best articles on the topic articles that are going to give the user a good background and overview of the topic area. History of the topic area if it's a controversial topic they'll look for articles that present both the pro and the con articles that include statistics etc so they have gone and searched for some of the best articles and present those front and center. In this case you've got a couple of little animated graphics that your patrons can look at and use. This particular essential page doesn't include it but there are often links to editor selected websites in the topic area too so you can see how if someone is trying to do a report on the topic this essential page could be very helpful as a good starting point. The editor's goal was to have a thousand of these essential pages in place by the end of June when the new interface went live and then their intention is to continue to add more pages on an ongoing basis. Now at this point what I want to do is actually show you how you can access a list of all of the topic areas that essential pages exist for and I just want to do this because it's not at all intuitive and I haven't found any place where it tells you how to do this so I sort of stumbled around and figured this out and so I'll go ahead and share it with you. If you do want to see a list of all of the topic areas that essential pages exist for you do have to click on this publications tab up at the top of the page and the default option for viewing publications is by name that's what you want. You want to select P and you scroll through the P's until you get to a link that says ProQuest Essentials. Here it is right here and if you click on this link then this is the point at which you'll get a list of the different topic areas. It's going to be what you'd probably expect everything from volcanoes to gun control to 1918 flu epidemic, 9-11 attacks. There even pop culture figures like Angelina Jolie has an essential page for her so it's really amazing all the different topic areas they do have these pages for. Sounds like it's a good case for making a suggestion to the ProQuest of is maybe something you might want to highlight a little better in your interface. Right and hopefully they update. Yeah it would be nice if they include a link someplace that says see all the essential pages see all the pages we have ProQuest Essential pages created for so but anyway maybe you'll be one of the select few who know how to get access to that information. Again as Krista said if you do have questions as we go along feel free to ask them you can either unmute yourself and ask using your microphone or do the text chat. Right now I'm going to go ahead and actually go back and do a more standard search that doesn't necessarily pull up one of those essential pages. I'm going to go ahead and do a search for tree nut allergies and I will say this basic search search box lets you enter searches it is accepts keywords short phrases it is optimized for natural language searches so you can actually type in a search statement in the form of a question that you might be asking. I'm going to go ahead and click on search and this is what the result page looks like. It tells you that it is going to show you result records 1 through 25 out of 208 total results. You do have a little preferences option here and you can change the number of results displayed per page if you so choose. If you direct your attention over to the left side of the screen we'll go over some of the options over here. You do have sort options the default sort order is relevance. One of the other sort options that I sometimes use it is date. If you click on the date sort option it will bring the most current material to the top of your result list and that is something that I sometimes want to do. Just personally I find that I don't use the other sort options very often. Size is basically just the length of the article. I've played around a lot with reading level since it seems like it would be a very appealing limit option but in my experience I haven't found their reading level designations haven't always seemed accurate to me and so I tend not to use that one. Document title is just alphabetical by title and publication name is alphabetical by magazine or journal name so those I tend not to use. Keyword score is somewhat similar to relevance but it just I think sorts your results based on the sheer number of times your search terms appear in the article whereas relevance factors in a few more factors so between keyword score and relevance I haven't quite figured out why you would use keyword score instead of relevance so my recommendation would be just to use relevance. Down below that you have an area that shows you how your results are distributed among the different source types so out of our 208 results eight results come from newspapers we have no pictures 189 results from magazines etc. You can also use this area to sort your results by source type so for instance if I wanted to bring the nine transcripts to the top of my result list I could click on transcripts and that would do that. Next you have a topic cloud that shows you some of the topic areas that these articles fall into so that would be another way to refine your search if you wanted to then go ahead and click on allergies basics and overviews then you get all of the articles that have been assigned to that particular topic area so again another way to refine a search result. At the very bottom you have access to a couple of the options that you would also get access to in the advanced search screen you can limit your search by a date range and then you can also choose to include newspaper articles that are older than 90 days. What I think is significant about this option is what it implies which is that when you do a basic search you're only going to be retrieving articles newspaper articles that were published in the last 90 days so that's something that you don't necessarily see when you do a basic search but it is something to be aware of. If you're searching for a topic area that would have been written about more than 90 days ago you're going to need to make sure that you use this option otherwise you're not you're going to miss the content that's actually there. Okay moving over to the actual search results something new that eLibrary has done is they've added something called document preview to the right of each record you can see the little magnifying glass and if you hold your mouse over it you get a little pop-up window that shows you a preview of the article. If based on the preview it looks like something you want to read in its entirety you can just click with your left mouse button and that pulls up the entire article. Once you're looking at the article you have some additional options you can email the article to yourself or someone else they do ask you to provide your name email addresses a subject line and a brief message you have a print option a print view and basically what that does is it reformats the article gets rid of some of the graphics and then you do need to use your browser print functionality to actually send the document to the printer. They have a citation view the limitation is that they only show you MLA format how to cite this particular article bound through eLibrary using MLA format so if that's the citation format your patron needs that's great if not this option is not going to appeal to them that much. Over to the right again is a new functionality that was added when they updated the interface at the end of June and that is an ability to translate the document into one of ten different languages so they allow you to translate into Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese etc. I'm just going to go ahead and do English to Spanish takes a few minutes to translate or a few seconds to translate but again this is going to be useful if you do have patrons who don't speak English as their first language or students who are taking foreign language classes in school that might be something that would be of interest to them so you can see the article has been translated. I'll point out right here the jump to best part of document option. This is kind of a unique feature of eLibrary they've had it as long as I can remember and I always tell people that sometimes it is really valuable and really works well and other times it doesn't make that much difference. If you are what does is it jumps you down to the part of the document that contains the highest concentration of your search terms in a situation where you are doing a search and you're just looking for articles that are going to give you general background information on the topic area you're basically going to need to read the whole article in order to meet your information need but there are other times when you might be looking for isolated fact maybe you type in what's the highest mountain in the world in situations like that go to best part can actually often drop you down to the portion of the article that provides the answer to your question so it saves you from reading the whole article on mountains for instance you can just jump right to the part that talks about the height of the tallest mountain so it's kind of nice to be aware of I'll just point out right here you have the option to add the document to my list so you can keep a running list of articles as you go along you also have the checkbox to the left of each or below each record on the result screen too so there are two places where you can add articles to a list scrolling down to the bottom the article I just want to show you document topics e-library is a little bit different than some other databases in that they don't assign subject headings to particular articles instead what pro quest is done is they have come up with what they call a topic tree it's basically their subject taxonomy and they assign articles to particular branches of that topic tree and this shows you three branches that this particular article has been assigned to so infection treatment and prevention allergies immunodeficiency and allergies basics and overviews so that's how they do their subject categorization if you click on one of these topic area links then you would retrieve all the other articles that have also been assigned to that branch of the topic tree so again that's another way to search another way to refine your search scrolling back to the top again if anybody has got any questions let me know I'm going to go ahead now and go back to the main search screen and take a brief look at the advanced search options so I'm going to click on advanced search here you do see that natural language search is the default search option but they do give you the option of switching to Boolean search mode if you want to do a more formal type of search using and or not you'll see right here it says include newspaper articles older than 90 days and that's automatically checked when you go to the advanced search screen so the advanced search screen automatically does include older articles so that is one difference between the basic search and the advanced search you'll see there's also an option to search within scholarly journals only so if you do have students you know college students people doing graduate work who need more research-oriented articles this would be an important option to make them aware of and you'll notice when you check that option all the source type icons other than magazine um the checkbox is unchecked under them so you can limit to scholarly articles I see you have a question uh go ahead and click on that again and maybe you'll see what but the little fleshy thing is at the very bottom of the interface ah yeah there we go okay let me read your question Linda the question is um I find many of my patrons never venture beyond google and wikipedia when they look for information what can I let them know to encourage them to use this resource um that's the million dollar question that everybody struggles with um I don't know if anybody else has any good ideas um I would say particularly if someone's having trouble finding information on the topic area and they do come to you that's a good opportunity to show them another option um if you do any sort of little mini classes ever offer offer a class and come see how to get access to you know you know maybe maybe list some popular magazines that are included in e-library and say you know get access to all these magazines at your fingertips something that's gonna don't you guys have um promotional materials on in um Nebraska access for some of these databases too that people can use yeah we do have some promotional material in Nebraska access um for instance we do have we've gotten in um we've got some handouts that are keyed to particular um topic areas for instance if you want information on agriculture you know here are some agriculture magazines and journals that you'll find get access to through these particular publications and I'm trying to remember if we've gotten those updated to correspond to the new nebresca access yet or not but um that those are the those are the ways that we've tried to help you yeah it's hard too I know when the patrons don't come to you so you don't get to intercept there I'm just gonna go to google that idea um so a lot of them is just having the promotional things the flyers lying around um a display of are you looking for information from journals or newspapers here's where you can go and say we've got this data and that would be your your um flyer would say this database this system and not mentioning the other things google Wikipedia which sometimes can be perfectly acceptable depending on what level they need but um just have that stuff out there for those people that don't even come to you um catch their eyes posters signs flyers whatever yeah it's really uh it's it's a battle it's a battle yeah and somebody said yeah mentioning it in an internet basics class would be a good you know you get access to this over the internet but it's something special that our library provides you that you wouldn't necessarily get you know if you weren't affiliated with our library so and for some people that might catch their attention this just popped into my head um this is your own tax dollars at work your the the state of Nebraska pays for you guys to have access to these databases so you know give them that little nudge yeah hey did you know that your state pays for yeah it offers these free day um you know uh services to you you've already paid for it by paying your taxes yeah appeal to their pocket book baby yeah so thanks for the question Linda yeah thanks a good issue to bring up definitely absolutely um I do really like the date range option in your library because you're often doing a very broad search and um you know you have you can have articles dating back um 14 years sometimes you know you only want information for the last couple years so being able to come on to the advanced search screen and say date range after and then you can select a month and a day and a year that makes such whoopsie I think here we go um you know that makes such a difference um in terms of the quality of your search results um here's an area where it lets you actually limit your search to a particular topic area and again these are the topic areas that um you saw at the bottom of a search result at the bottom of an article um this is probably fairly advanced and esoteric search options so it might be something that you would remember to take advantage of if you're really struggling to find good results for a patron but I'm not sure how many of them would take advantage of it um if someone comes in with an actual uh citation to an article that they're trying to track down you can type in uh the document title the author's name it does let you limit by reading level except like I said I'm not quite convinced about the reading level options just uh for uh just as an experiment I went in and I I did a search and I limited to scholarly journal articles and early elementary reading level and I got quite a few hits so that there lets you know that it's sort of suspect um and then finally and this is a very important option you can limit your search by publication name so someone comes in and they say I saw an article in Time Magazine on this topic can you help me or you know I saw an article in the Omaha World Herald this is where you can come and actually type that in so I can type Omaha World Herald down here and then up at the top in the search box I can type in uh search terms that would hopefully match something in the article I'm looking for so I could type in um Ricketts and Cubs baseball since the Ricketts family it sounds like was trying to buy or is trying to buy the Cubs baseball team so go ahead and do that search and it's going to limit just articles that appeared in the Omaha World Herald and because we were using the advanced screen it does search for articles older than 90 days and actually that's good in this case because I went through and looked and the only two of these articles were published within the last 90 days so you can see what a difference that particular toggle can make okay gonna move on move on to the topics tab here we've talked a little bit about the topics area that the topic tree that eLibrary uses to categorize their articles this is where you can actually look at it and they have provided you with several ways to search using it so you can browse the topic tree you've got the broad topic areas listed and then you can drill down to try to find the narrower topic area that describes your area of interest so if I was looking for articles on weather forecasting you know I might it's pretty logical to guess it might be under science it click on science I get narrower topic areas and I would need to look through these and figure out which narrower topic area to look at so probably earth science maybe and there's climatology over here to the right and down at the bottom is meteorology so a couple options there so I can drill down this way to get results or I can use if I go back to the topics homepage I can use this little search box and what this does is it actually it just searches the topic tree area it doesn't search the articles themselves so if I type in weather and click on search it will show me just the branches of the topic tree that contain the term weather so that's another way to sort of a drill down so I can look at these links and maybe I'll decide I'm interested in weather basics I can show the topic path if I want and it was under meteorology weather and weather phenomena I can click on weather basics I see the whole branch of the topic tree and then I can click on view results situations where this might be useful you can imagine if you just went to the basic search screen and typed in the term weather you're going to get all kinds of articles based basically anything that contains the word weather and so you could get some very narrow advanced articles on the topic that aren't basic at all if you go this right route your chances are that you're going to get more basic introductory articles okay I do want to move on then and I want to go back to the publications tab again we've talked about that a little bit we've already browsed by name alphabetic alphabetically by name we've done by type when we clicked on the source type icon but a new option they give you when viewing publications is to view publications by subject area and this is actually I think really valuable you'll see here you've got a list of subject areas if you click on something like agriculture it's going to show you all the magazines and journals and other sources that are specifically focused on the topic of agriculture this I think is a way that you could possibly appeal to particular people in your community and convince them of the value of this resource if you're going and talking to a particular group that has a particular area of interest if you can find topic areas that correspond to that area of interest you could bring a list for them of the magazines and journals that would apply to their area of interest and show them and say you get access to the suee library so I think the subject area option really has a lot of potential as far as being able to show people okay look these are all area these are all magazines or journals in your field of your field of expertise so you might want to keep up with them through e-libraries opposed to individual subscriptions you also can search for a publication so if I just quickly want to find out is rolling stone included in e-library type that in here and it just whoopsie I have to jump back to my name here sorry and it shows me rolling stone is included so couple ways to browse the publication list finally over here to the right is a reference tab and this again has some great applications if you've got particularly if you've got someone that just needs a general introduction to a topic area and I think particularly of students who are doing reports having them do a search in the general search screen they're going to get all kinds of articles some of them basic and some of them very narrow in focus if you come to the reference tab area what you're going to be doing is you're going to be limiting your search to a subset of the book a book content specifically reference sources if you want to see which sources you're searching you can click on this view reference desk sources link and you'll see it'll be two dictionaries to the sorai the sources some encyclopedias almanacs etc so you're searching a subset of the reference content so for instance say someone wants some general introductory information on Buddhism when I did a search on Buddhism on the main search screen I got lots of articles about the Dalai Lama and different political activities that he's involved with not really an introduction to what is Buddhism if you come here and do your search you are going to get dictionary definition from the American Heritage Dictionary you're also going to get articles from the DKE encyclopedia botanica concise encyclopedia young students learning library these are just general introductions to the topic here's a specialized encyclopedia religions of the world you go in here and you have just what you can imagine the patron would want you've got history of Buddhism beliefs concept of God's sacred writing symbols types of Buddhism you know just all the basic categories of information the patron might want so that reference tab is actually comes in quite handy in certain situations okay the last thing I want to talk about is again it's a new feature of e-library it is something called my e-library and the primary value of this in my mind is that it allows you to save lists of articles that you compile beyond your current session in the past you were able to do to create lists of articles I think you could save 20 up to 25 articles to a list but that list you had to do something with it during your current session you had to print it out or email it to yourself or something because as soon as you like off of the library that list went away so that has limited use if you're doing long-term research so I'm going to go ahead and just add some check some articles to add to a list here check the couple and I go up here and I click on my list and it will show me the articles that I added to my list then it also tells me your current list is unsaved and will be discarded when you exit e-library or close your browser to save your list either log into my e-library or create a new my e-library account so now they give you the option to save your lists and so I think that's very valuable I do have an account so I'm going to go ahead and log in I'm you could have gotten to the same screen by clicking on the my e-library tab up here at the top also so and just to show you the option to sign up appears right below the login option so it's a very simple it just wants your name username password and a security question okay so here is my e-library homepage and I have a list called vision therapy here so I'm going to click on vision therapy and these are articles that I have added in the past so I can continue to add to this list with my new information if I want let's see let's go back to my list here okay so here's my list now that I've logged into my e-library account you'll see I have the option of saving this as a new list by giving it a new name or I can add these articles to my existing list so I'm going to click on save to add them to my existing list I can jump to my e-library view all of my lists here's my vision therapy list and so you know that's really nice if you do an ongoing research you can keep that list of articles going from one session to another the other thing that you can do when you log into your e-library account is you'll see up at the top of the document page you have an option that you didn't see before we were logged in and that is to take notes so you could actually take notes on the particular article that interests you so here are these are symptoms that may cause you to think that maybe your child has a vision problem so say I want to mark that I could click on take notes I can do a summary note which is just a general note affiliated with the article or I can do an inline note which allows me to pinpoint a particular part of the article that I want the notice associated with so I can come down here and say click right by this list and say I'm just going to do size possible vision problems and I'm not I could put more text up here but I'm just going to put a title there and save you'll see it puts that little pin right next to that section of the article and you know when I click on that my little note comes off and so any text that I typed in would appear there I can stop taking notes you'll see that within the article if you go back and look at that article you can also see a list of all the articles you've added notes to again you go to your my e-library home page and you'll see up here it says saved notes and so I have a list of several notes that I've added you know I can just click on the note and it pops those up so I could see I think this would be really useful to people who are working on papers you know lots of times you're reading an article and you see a particular sentence or paragraph that you can tell is going to perfectly support your thesis and you want to make sure you remember that if you stick a note in there then you'll be able to find that paragraph again as opposed to printing off all the articles going home getting at your highlighter and trying to find that particular passage so I actually think the note taking feature is a nice addition as well we're about out of time and that is actually the end of my list of topics to cover with the e-library does anybody have any questions I'd like to ask at this point well do feel free to get up get in touch with me if you do have follow-up questions hopefully you'll hopefully you pick up a few new tips and we'll be able to find some time to play around with e-library so I think that's it for this week's session okay yeah if anybody doesn't have any other oh this is the questions you can contact Susan there's your new email address and 800 number here at the commission feel free to give a call or contact her with any questions or anything else you want to know about it as you're using it she can help you through that um thank you very much for attending the session
