New features and enhancements were added to OvidSP overnight:
- A Multi-Field Search mode for all databases
- Collapsible Search Aid box
- Results Manager is collapsible and available above and below the main search box
- You can move the Search History above the main search box; plus, sort searches in ascending or descending order, and identify each search by search type
- Choose the limits you want to appear as common limits on the main search page
- Create, edit, and add multiple annotations to a citation
- Browse Books and Browse Journals links available on the Select a Database page
- Direct linking from Search Aids to the tree
- Browser support for adjusting font size
- Users logged into their personal accounts will see their name and institutions
- Instructional “hint” text for Basic Search
Many of the screens will continue to change over the next few weeks as Ovid responds to customer comments. There are also improvements coming to personalisation features; a My Projects Workspace Area will be released next month.
If you would like more information on these features or would be interested in a Webex training session with Ovid please let me know.
