 In this video, you will learn what OneSearch is and how to use it to discover resources and information on a topic. OneSearch is our name for the new universal search box on the library homepage. This search box can help you find the library items that you need for your research more easily than before because it operates more like Google or any other web search engine than our old search. If you've been a shoreline student in the past, you may remember that finding library resources used to involve searching in multiple databases for articles and using the old library catalog to search for books. You can still search that way, but now you can also get instant results from a variety of reliable, library-approved sources using a single search. OneSearch gives you a drop-down menu where you can choose the scope of items that you want to search. Books, articles, and more will search almost everything that the library owns and then some, including physical items in the library, eBooks, and journal articles. Library catalog will search physical items in the library and eBooks. Online resources is perfect for online and distant students because it just searches for items that are available online without cluttering the search by returning results for physical items in the library. Let's test this out with a search. I'll search the catalog for the term Japanese mythology. I get seven results. Five are print books in the library and two are online books. If I change my scope to books, articles, and more, I now see over 7,000 results, including articles, reviews, and reference entries. But some of those books that are available in the library will still float to the top of my results. If I change the search again to online resources, the print books are filtered out.
