The Library’s list of electronic journals – the Ejournals A to Z list – search page is changing to a more user-friendly format that allows users to enter the desired journal title and then select from a brief menu of “radio buttons” to choose parameters for the search. This should eliminate or shorten the lists of titles often retrieved using the prior search page format, which will still be available by clicking on the “Titles” tab.
As before, you can search for variants of a title word by truncating it (i.e., leaving off the last letter or few letters) and substituting an asterisk for the missing letter(s). For example, typing “Anesthesi*” will retrieve titles beginning with “Anesthesia” or “Anesthesiology.” However, abbreviations (e.g., “J. Anest.”) will not work at this time.
The Library invites your comments on the change to the opening search page. You are invited to use either the Contact Us form on the Library Web site or to contact Jeff Perkins either by email or by phone at 214-748-2004.
