WHAT IS OneSearch

OneSearch is a new service offered by Wilson Library that allows you to search multiple databases at once. OneSearch will streamline the research process by conducting your search across multiple platforms to bring you information from a varitety of sources. One Search provides citations and abstracts, as well as linking opportunities to full-text articles, electronic books, and records in your library's catalog. And you choose which resources you want it to search.

What is clustering?

Clustered results sort your OneSearch results into categories, to help save you time in deciding which results are most appropriate for your purposes. Clustering can also help you refine your search, by giving you new ideas for your search query.

Can I still access individual databases?

Yes! Just visit our databases page.

Can I still email and export records from OneSearch?

Yes! Above your results are links to email, export, or save selected results. To select records, use the checkboxes next to each result. Once results are selected, the "Email" and "Export/Save" links are activated. Clicking on "selected records" link from the results page allows you to view only your selections in a new window.
Clicking on "Email" prompts you to fill out a form. On the form, you may choose to send your selected records in a format compatible with bibliographic citation managers like EndNote or ProCite, in plain text, or in HTML.
Clicking on "Export/Save" prompts you to fill out a similar form. You may choose to export your selected records directly to RefWorks, or to save the records either in a format compatible with bibliographic citation managers like EndNote or ProCite, as plain text, or as HTML.
