Here is how it works:
1. You come across an article you want that is NOT in the current database. In Ebscohost, you would click on “Check to see if Full Text is in Chabot’s Other Databases”
2. If the article is available in another database, you godirectly to that article. No further searching, no need to navigate back to a databases page. The link goes directly to the article!
3. If the article is not available, you are then led to options that include finding the title in print at a local library!
In addition to being able to link to articles between databases, you can also link to articles from Chabot full-text databases right from Google Scholar! To set up Chabot Library directly in Google Scholar preferences, go to http://tinyurl.com/3v74pa Click on the "Save Preferences" button. When you perform a search in Google Scholar, on the right of some of your Google scholar entries there will be a link that says "Chabot Library Databases". Click on that link, and in most cases, you will go directly to the article (if you are off-campus, enter your username and password, then be led directly to the article!)
