Post questions / scenarios
- When I search for "Don't Teach So Close to Me" without the quotes, nothing comes up, but when I search with quotes, it does. Why? There aren't any directions to suggest this scenario.
- Where do EBSCOHost get their subject headings, i.e., Library of Congress or in house or elsewhere?
- use of thesaurus to improve search
- use of thesaurus to combine terms - what are the instructions here? not clear
use of multiple terms in simple search box california music education yields no results california "music education" yields 81 california AND "music education" sends searcher to Thesaurus page to combine (or exclude) terms but when ADD DE "GOVERNMENT aid to music education" to previous search california is omitted
- difference btwn SO and JN
- can we move "Choose Databases ยป" link
- can we make "Full Text" check-box larger on search screen?
- "Search within publication" - next steps must add Boolean AND or used advanced search screen
