I understand this system is under development and will have more stuff added soon. Good now should be excellent as more is added.

When searching it seems to be more specific than needed. maybe a box to search for titles/ authors/ subject area / etc...

LibOnline says

Try the Refine and Advanced search options - subject area search boxes are being developed, coming soon...

Just had a first go with this, and it's great! I like the really clear display of results. Real improvement.

Perfect. one step to get information, then refine if you need to. Please keep the system!

Could it be set to tell you (as you click to save to folder) that you need to set up an account to be able to get saved research next time you log on? thanks

LibOnline says

Hi - the 'Discover' development team will look into your suggestion to see if this is possible. Thanks

I think this is a really good system, it makes finding sources so much more convenient because they are all in one place

Tons better than the other search systems on the library, very relevant results and easier to crack on with research.
Please keep this system!

I am using this with my students who have dyslexia and they are all commenting on how much easier this is to find/remeber how to use than other sources we have.

Found the new search engine really easy to use and thought it is alot better than the original. collates articles more efficiently

the library online function isnt as good as specific databases! search the tittle of a journal and it never finds it where as the specific database does!!!!!!!!

LibOnline says

thanks for feedback - the best place to look if you know the title of a journal is our A-Z journals list, Discover is better for initial subject searches

the search engine is now more efficient and accessible to a manifold of sources, not only killing two birds with one stone but killing all bird species

It's simple, would be better if could save folder online rather than to computer.

LibOnline says

Thanks for feedback - you can save folder or results online if you go to 'Save My Results' and create an account.
