Multi-Database Searching Now Available
You can now search multiple databases at one time using a new Multi-Database Searching option. The Multi-Database Search allows you to simultaneously search predefined clusters of databases in order to identify articles. You will see the total number of results found in each database, so you can use this search engine to identify the best databases for particular research topics.
Once you do a search, you can choose to display the combined search results, or view results found in a single database. For searches that retrieve many records, the combined results will first display a subset of the total records found. You can display more results by clicking on the "combine more" link.
You will find the link "Find Articles (multiple databases)" on all science libraries subject pages under Selected Resources. The complete list of subject clusters for the sciences is found on the left portion of the resulting screens. A direct link can be found at http://www.library.yale.edu/science/help/jrnl.html.
