Hi all,
I’ll be doing a introductory session on MetaLib next Wednesday 1-2pm for patrons (staff are welcome, too). Please recommend this session to anyone whom you feel might benefit. A second session is scheduled for Fri Oct 5, 9:30- 10:30 am.
Here’s the link to the calendar entry, and here’s the blurb:
UBC Library subscribes to hundreds of online resources to support research across the disciplines at UBC. Are you tired of searching each of your favorite databases one-by-one? Have you ever wished you could search multiple databases at the same time? Now you can!
Introducing MetaLib, a new search tool that enables you to search multiple databases simultaneously. In this session, we’ll give you an overview of MetaLib and show you how you can use it so search across a set of pre-defined databases in a broad area like Newspapers, select databases from a specific specific subject area such as Biology, History, Art, Psychology, or create your own set of databases to search.
