IntroducingSmartTextSearching

Paste an entirearticle or documentinto the search

box and retrieve arelevant result list

SmartText Explained

• Search any text from any article or document, including:– articles within EBSCOhost– content from other documents or websites

• The system analyzes each word in the query for how unique it is

• Then, a weight is applied to each word

• Then, a search is initiated using those weights as relevancy controls

• We are considering future enhancements to let users control those weights themselves

Librarians can choose one of two Visual Search options for

their library’s default.
