So let's get started here. Our agenda for today. We will start with accessing.

Gale resources that you have from Utah's online Public Library. And then we, what I'll do is give you an overview of the Gale online resources or the Gale, one file resources.

[00:01:20.000]

It is open and available, and then I'll also leave you with where you can go for additional information. You have.

[00:01:37.000]
You'll have my contact information, but also your Gale customer, success manager.

[00:01:42.000]
Your Yale customer success manager is your one on one support, and all things Gale.

[00:01:47.000]
They are there to support you. Make sure that you get the most out of your resources.

[00:01:51.000]
Help you with access. Talk to you about.

[00:01:54.000]
, the support site and all the tools that are there. And then, as you start using the resources and your patrons start using the resources. They can help you with pulling usage reports. So.

[00:02:05.000]
Again. Gale. Customer, success. Managers are there to support you in all things, scale.

[00:02:12.000]
Hopefully, you're familiar with Utah's online public library website. , I do suggest taking a look at that website. The link is here at the top of the page.

[00:02:22.000]
What you'll find. There is all of your resources, so you'll find information on all of your new Gale resources.

[00:02:29.000]
You can click the learn more button under any resource, and it will take you to more information on that individual resource.

[00:02:36.000]
So if you're looking for information on each of the one file resources, you can find it there. I'm also going to show you where you can find a little summary of each one. The nice thing is with your one file product, family, and there are a lot of one file resources that you have in your collection.

[00:02:53.000]
The nice thing is is that the it's in the title, as you can see.

[00:02:58.000]
Gale won file agriculture. Gale, one file business. You're going to find that if you're looking for business industry information, you can go to the one file business product.

[00:03:09.000]
The one that I'm showing on the screen right now is another business resource. It's not in our one file product family. So it does have periodical content. But , it is Gale. Business insights. This is what from our business products selection, our business collection.

[00:03:27.000]
I do suggest using your direct Urls.

[00:03:30.000]
For your patrons to access your Gale resources. But if you'd like to access the resource from here, you have that option at the top.

[00:03:37.000]
And you just need to enter in your library card number.

[00:03:41.000]
Another reason why you'd want to use your direct Urls for your individual resources is for usage. You are going to be able to pull great usage reports specifically for your library or library system.

[00:03:53.000]
If you access the support site using this link here, and I'll put it in the chat.

[00:03:59.000]
What you'll find is.

[00:04:02.000]
So it's a good one to bookmark, so I've just posted it in the chat. Those watching the recording. You can see it here.

[00:04:09.000]
The link will take you to this page which you have the ability to enter in your library name or select it from the dropdown menu. Once you click, proceed, it'll take you to all of your direct Urls.

[00:04:22.000]
, you can see upcoming webinars. We have listed here. We also, you can quickly jump to resources, ebooks, training, or marketing materials. From this page.

[00:04:30.000]
Once you log in with your library or library system.

[00:04:34.000]
You will be taken to all of your direct Urls, and your specific library will have your own individual location. Id, and it will automatically be built into your URL.

[00:04:44.000]
The URL already has the easy proxy built into it too, so authentication will remain the same for your patrons, as it has always been.

[00:04:53.000]
, and I will say, if you are looking for your library branch.

[00:04:57.000]
The State Library has the Utah's online Public library has , told us to just put in the libraries and library system. So we're following their guidelines.

[00:05:07.000]
So that is why so look for your library or library system, and then you'll find that information. Utilize those direct Urls. If you are at a branch.

[00:05:17.000]
If you'd like to export your entire list, you have that option here on the right hand side, it'll it will export all of those direct Urls onto a spreadsheet for you.

[00:05:28.000]
So you have quite a few one file products available. And these are in the one file product, family. And when you think of one file. You think of Gale in one file. I want you to think of periodical content.

[00:05:42.000]
We will. You will find some multimedia in these, but they're really focused on that periodical content. And, as you can see in the title, you'll get that information as to what is the focus of that individual resource. It makes it very easy. A few I want to talk to you about and a few we are going to go into today.

[00:06:02.000]
, as you have academic, one file in general, one file. These are 2 main resources and a lot of the content, like, say, from diversity studies is, these are subsets of these 2 resources. So will you find some unique content within diversity studies. Yes, you will.

[00:06:20.000]
. But there will be a lot of content coming from academic one file in general, one file. So they are subsets of those, and you have a large collection. I'll share that with you when we go. Live into the products.

[00:16:23.000]
And we're going to go into Gale, general, one file.

[00:16:26.000]
We're gonna start here with this resource. I want to mention, too, with your one file resources, you're going to find that we have.

[00:16:33.000]
Lower embargo rates for full text titles versus other aggregators or other vendors. So you're going to find those articles in here sooner.

[00:16:42.000]
Most. We have the most accurate indexing on the market, too, with over 1.2 million articles that are manually indexed each year, making Gale unique with the most accurate indexing on the market. And then we have quicker load times of publication, such as the New York Times Library Journal, U.S.A. today, along with our user friendly platform where the tools and features are consistent across all of your gale resources. So it makes it really simple.

[00:17:07.000]
Simple for our patrons.

[00:17:08.000]
To access the information and find it quickly.

[00:17:11.000]
With our periodical family, we do have in our general one file the ability to browse by topic.

[00:17:18.000]
And, this is really helpful for our patrons if they're looking for specific topics and want to find that information quickly. We've curated like, I said. The information has been has been in not only index, but we have our content. Editors or subject matter experts.

[00:17:35.000]
That are curating that information for you under these topics. So.

[00:17:40.000]
We also have few things I want to point out.

[00:17:43.000]
The ability to translate the platform itself into over 34 languages, so that would simply translate the navigational tools. This is separate, then.

[00:17:53.000]
Our document translation that happens at the document level. This is just to help.

[00:17:58.000]
Users navigate through the resource.

[00:18:01.000]
You can sign in with Google or Microsoft. I'm gonna sign in with Google. I'm on my computer. So it remembered. But I would sign in with Google, or Microsoft. I am set up as a teacher. If you're ever working with teachers, we are integrated with Google Classroom, too. So they can post information directly to their Google classroom, great tool that we have available. But as a patron coming into your library. If I want to send information to my Google drive and.

[00:18:25.000]
And turns it into a Google Doc. I can do that. All I have to do is simply sign in if I forget to. And I click send to Google. . Then I would be prompted at that time to sign in.

[00:18:37.000]
And then what happens is a folders created.

[00:18:39.000]
Titled, whatever resource I'm in, so it would be. Gale, general, one file and every article I send to my Google drive will land in that folder makes it nice and simple.

[00:18:50.000]
Okay, so let's talk about you have basic search and advanced search. And then we have our contextual toolbar here. The the tools here will change, depending on where I'm at, within the resource and what tools I need.

[00:19:02.000]
I also have the browse by topic which I mentioned, and then you have the ability to search. You have some search tools, available topic which is a visual representation of your search results. And it's interactive.

[00:19:13.000]
You also have subject, guide, search.

[00:19:16.000]
And publication search, and we're going to touch into each of these. They do live on the homepage, but they always live under advanced search, too, so you'll find them in both places.

[00:19:26.000]
So for today's training, I wanted to go through. First, st I wanted to go through a utilizing the browse by topic and then doing a basic search.

[00:19:36.000]
So let's.

[00:19:37.000]
Click into news and current events.

[00:19:39.000]
And we're going to select pollution. So you can see I have these topics.

[00:19:44.000]
Where content has been curated for me and organized. Maybe I'm interested in self help and improvement or education.

[00:19:52.000]
I can very easily jump to any of these and find that information, and access it, or drill down quickly with a couple of clicks.

[00:20:01.000]
If I click into pollution.

[00:20:04.000]
It takes me directly into all of the magazine articles.

[00:20:08.000]
Now in academic one file. It takes me directly to all of the academic journals.

[00:20:13.000]
But this one lands at the top. I have magazines, so you can see I have over 56,000 magazines, 15,000 academic journals.

[00:20:21.000]
Books, newspaper articles.

[00:20:23.000]


[00:20:26.000]
Now, this is a lot of content, a lot of great content. If I wanted to share this, maybe I'm doing some public library programming around pollution. I want to bring it to everyone's attention. Or I have a group that I that I'm working with, or we're doing some promotion around. I can use the get link tool.

[00:20:43.000]
To share this information, grab a link back to this content, and our users will be able to directly authenticate into this content and access this information.

[00:20:55.000]
I also could filter it down because it is a lot of really great content. So I could filter down. You can see a lot of options I have here available to filter my results. Oops.

[00:21:05.000]
I have publication, date.

[00:21:07.000]
Subjects.

[00:21:09.000]
Document, type.

[00:21:10.000]
Publication, title.

[00:21:12.000]
Sections, and this applies to my newspapers.

[00:21:15.000]
Lexile measure and the ability to search within and just put simply put in a term.

[00:21:22.000]
Document contains images. I can put some pre selectors on here, or preliminers.

[00:21:27.000]
I also have topic finder. So remember, I had topic finder on my home page. I also have it here. If I utilize it here. It's going to only bring in these search results, where, if I access it from the homepage or advanced search, I would have to put in a term, and it would bring back everything for that term. So! This is already been curated for me, but maybe I want that.

[00:21:51.000]
Visual.

[00:21:52.000]
interactive tool. I can do that by clicking on start topic finder, let me just show you what that looks like. Real quick.

[00:22:00.000]
So this is what it would look like.

[00:22:02.000]
Because I'm accessing from one of those.

[00:22:05.000]
Topic pages.

[00:22:08.000]
Let me go back to the previous page. We'll talk about topic finder as we move through the resources.

[00:22:13.000]
In just a moment, but that's what it looks like when you pull in content from.

[00:22:17.000]
One of these topic categories that we went into.

[00:22:20.000]
Okay. So I talked to you about the different content types that we have available.

[00:22:26.000]
Here at the top if I wanted to filter down. Let's say I wanted to filter everything down by the past year.

[00:23:03.000]
Specifically for a clinical report.

[00:23:07.000]
Mm-hmm.

[00:23:08.000]
Got 59 of them. I can apply that.

[00:23:12.000]
And it filters again. Everything down at once!

[00:23:16.000]
So I have news, academic journals and magazines. I added, 2 filters.

[00:23:20.000]
I can again create that, get link and create a link back to this content.

[00:23:27.000]
Or bookmark it that way.

[00:23:29.000]
Okay. So now let's do a basic search. Now, I don't have to go back to the homepage. I can just my basic search waiting for me, so is advanced. Search.

[00:23:37.000]
So I'm gonna do a basic search on economic development.

[00:23:41.000]
If I can spell.

[00:23:49.000]
And it's working.

[00:23:52.000]
See, it's spinning up top.

[00:23:53.000]
So I've clicked into economic development. Now, why, I did a basic searches. I wanted to show you this other feature that you have available in your one file resources. You have the ability to create search.

[00:24:06.000]
And I can add some filters if I wanted to do that first.st Maybe I'm looking for specific subjects.

[00:24:12.000]
Like, I'm looking at the real estate industry.

[00:24:15.000]
No, no, I'll just do economic growth.

[00:24:19.000]
So anything related to economic development and economic growth. I wanna set up a search alert for.

[00:24:25.000]
I've filtered that down. All I have to do in my contextual toolbar is select, alert.

[00:24:30.000]
And it provides me the ability to have this email to me as often as I like. So do I want it daily, weekly, monthly.

[00:24:38.000]
How do I want to receive it? What format plain text, or do I like the HTML?

[00:24:43.000]
I do ask for your birth, date.

[00:24:45.000]
And then we could create that alert.

[00:24:48.000]
. If I wanted to use the Rss feed, I have that option available. So if I'd like to utilize that and put it into my browser, so that I get that.

[00:24:57.000]
.

[00:24:58.000]
The Rss. Feed every time something new has been added. I can do that, too. So both options are available.

[00:25:04.000]
But I would have to do a basic search to create a search. Alert.

[00:25:10.000]
Alright!

[00:25:11.000]
Let me know if you have any questions on that.

[00:25:14.000]
Then let's go into.

[00:25:17.000]
I wanna.

[00:25:18.000]
Go to topic finder now. So we model that for you. And then we're gonna go into our next resource.

[00:25:23.000]
And that's academic. One file.

[00:25:28.000]
And we're gonna cover some of the.

[00:25:31.000]
Tools and features at the document level there. So let's do one more search, and then we'll go into academic one file.

[00:25:37.000]
This time I am going to go. I could go to the homepage or I could go to advanced search. I'm just gonna go to the home page.

[00:25:44.000]
Let's say I like this tool a lot, and as a as a patron I come in here and I want to use topic finder, because I like.

[00:25:51.000]
It takes a look at topics. It helps me find some key words, some topics that maybe I hadn't really thought about when I was doing my searches or looking for my information. Let's do global warming and climate change.

[00:26:04.000]
And I'm gonna do both and see what we get back.

[00:26:09.000]
Usually I do one or the other. But let's do both.

[00:26:14.000]
It pulls back these great tiles. I have 2 visualizations available. I have the tiles or the wheel.

[00:26:22.000]
It's really up to you.

[00:26:24.000]
Or your patrons.

[00:26:26.000]
The deeper the color, the larger the tile, the more information we have. So if I'm looking specifically at air pollution.

[00:26:33.000]
I can click on that.

[00:26:35.000]
And then maybe pollution control for 2024.

[00:26:39.000]
Takes me to 9 different documents.

[00:26:42.000]
And these could be academic journals, magazines, newspapers. It could be audio or video files, images, taking me to everything.

[00:26:51.000]
So it pulls back all that information, and I can quickly jump to.

[00:26:55.000]
One of these articles.

[00:26:58.000]
You'll also see we have some interlinking available. So interlinking.

[00:27:03.000]
Provide you with the ability to explore additional articles.

[00:27:09.000]
Related to that topic.

[00:27:12.000]
You also have your explore panel.

[00:27:14.000]
Which provides you with supplemental information, and that supplemental information on this topic or this article, you'll see related subjects here below. So if I wanted to go specifically to air pollution.

[00:27:26.000]
I could go to the topic of air pollution and find great content.

[00:27:32.000]
So all kinds of options are available to find what you're looking for, to search and browse through the content.

[00:27:39.000]
Now let's go into academic one file. I'm going to use our product menu.

[00:27:44.000]
And I'm gonna use this because I want to share with you, where you find your product menu, I should show you that.

[00:27:50.000]
Up here in the left hand corner. Menu.

[00:27:53.000]
View, gale, product, menu.

[00:27:56.000]
And that would take you to this.

[00:27:59.000]
Which.

[00:28:00.000]
All databases are listed here. You have a summary of each one, too.

[00:28:04.000]
And I can access.

[00:28:06.000]
Any of these databases from my product menu.

[00:28:09.000]
Now, if I go to my periodicals.

[00:28:12.000]
These are all of my periodical resources, as you can see, I could not fit all of these icons on a Powerpoint slide. So that's why I did not include them all.

[00:28:21.000]
But you can see not only the title.

[00:28:23.000]
Of the product or of the resource. And you see a little bit of a summary, too. So it kind of helps explain what you're going to find within that resource. But I do feel like the titles of the resources are really helpful in that respect, too.

[00:28:38.000]
. If I wanted to filter by list name I could do that.

[00:28:41.000]
But we're gonna go directly into Gale academic one.

[00:28:47.000]
Now academic. One file provides you with the ability to browse by discipline. All of our other tools and features are here. You can see at the top, you can see our contextual toolbar, basic advanced search.

[00:28:58.000]
anytime I want to come back to them. The .

[00:29:03.000]
The main page. Here the homepage of the resource. All I have to do is click into.

[00:29:07.000]
The into the.

[00:29:09.000]
the header, and it'll take me back.

[00:29:12.000]
Click on the title. It'll take me back to this page here. So that's in across all of your gale resources.

[00:29:18.000]
But what I love about browse by discipline is that each discipline is hand selected by our subject matter. Experts.

[00:29:25.000]
They're curriculum related for targeted results. And then, as I mentioned, you're going to find the consistency of tools that provide, that HTML format at the document level, and also the Pdf. Format.

[00:29:38.000]
And all of the great tools to support accessibility that are available.

[00:29:43.000]
So we do have the browse by discipline, and the one of the reasons I really like it is, let's say you are looking for.

[00:29:51.000]
You're talking about memory, but specifically about.

[00:29:55.000]
Memory like what you can remember your memory right? , or in the brain that kind of thing. So I would want to go to psychology.

[00:30:04.000]
And then access memory.

[00:30:07.000]
And the nice thing is with using this discipline or browsing through the disciplines is it's taking me specifically to psychology and memory, and not just.

[00:30:16.000]
The term memory. The term memory could bring back all kinds of information it could bring back.

[00:30:21.000]
Computer memory. So I don't have to filter through.

[00:30:25.000]
All of that I can go directly to this type of content. So it really is a great tool for our researchers, for our public library patrons, higher Ed students, especially academic. One file is used at the higher Ed level. It's also used for researchers that will be coming into your library, but it's also used at schools. Use it, too, for those accelerated programs.

[00:30:50.000]
They use the they, they will use academic one file. So, it's great for users of all.

[00:30:57.000]
Levels. I would say from you know, Upper, that upper high school level to.

[00:31:01.000]
your undergrads, but also your patrons that are coming in and want that.

[00:31:05.000]
That level of information are looking more for those scholarly journals.

[00:31:09.000]
They'll find them here within this resource. So you have that available along with.

[00:31:14.000]
Your Gale, General, one file which has.

[00:31:17.000]
Those popular magazines and that type of information. More of that general reference information.

[00:31:24.000]
Okay, so let's go back to look. I can click in the banner, and it takes me right back to that homepage. Let's go back to the homepage.

[00:31:31.000]
I wanna touch into a few of our tools and features. , we went. We did psychology and computer memory. But let's say I wanted to do if I went to political science and.

[00:31:46.000]
Bill of Rights.

[00:31:50.000]
Okay.

[00:31:51.000]
You can see all of the content I have available, and maybe I want to filter this content down.

[00:31:57.000]
By a particular subject, like freedom of speech.

[00:32:02.000]
I can do that.

[00:32:03.000]
Now you're seeing these little checkmark boxes here, right? And I want to talk to you about this, and I want to talk to you about the download feature when I'm here.

[00:32:13.000]
Looking at all of my content. What this will do is, it will.

[00:32:18.000]
Create a Zip folder, so I can select.

[00:32:22.000]
Multiple articles.

[00:32:24.000]
And what it'll do is when I click download, it'll create.

[00:32:28.000]
A Zip folder.

[00:32:30.000]
And it'll land wherever I choose to.

[00:32:33.000]
Determine where I want it to be.

[00:32:35.000]
And what it does is it creates that text file. So let me share with you.

[00:32:42.000]
Let's see.

[00:32:44.000]
Here we go!

[00:32:45.000]
This is what it's creating. So when I open up that zip folder , I will.

[00:32:51.000]
Have as many articles. If I've selected. I selected 3, I'll have all 3 of them, and when I when I click into them I'll see this.

[00:32:59.000]
Okay, so that's what it's doing. This was more of an ask overseas. They were asking for this. We don't.

[00:33:06.000]
Use it as much here in the Us. But it was an ask that we were receiving.

[00:33:10.000]
. So when we are a global company, and we, you know, our products are utilized overseas, or I should say, in Europe. And so that's where it came from.

[00:33:20.000]
So it is a tool that is available, and I do like to point it out. But! This is what you would see when you were to click that download which is different than let me go back to.

[00:33:31.000]
Our desktop here.

[00:33:39.000]
Okay.

[00:33:41.000]
Let's share that.

[00:33:43.000]
There we go!

[00:33:46.000]
So when I were to. If, when I'm at the article or document level.

[00:33:51.000]
Close that file.

[00:33:52.000]
When I click into okay, I'm gonna remove these. I don't think I need to. I'm just gonna click into this article.

[00:33:58.000]
When I'm at the article level and I hit download. What it'll do is it'll create a Pdf. Now, if we happen to have the original.

[00:34:06.000]
Pdf. Of this article. Then you'll see that.

[00:34:09.000]
In when you download it. If we don't, then what you'll see is just a Pdf. And let me share that with you. So I'm gonna share that screen.

[00:34:18.000]
So what you'll see is this document.

[00:34:23.000]
A Pdf. And it it opened in adobe when I clicked into it. But you would just receive that Pdf document.

[00:34:31.000]
Okay, so you have both options available.

[00:34:34.000]
That ability to download.

[00:34:38.000]
Multiple articles, but also.

[00:34:42.000]
Which would be in that.

[00:34:43.000]
Dot text.

[00:34:45.000]
Format.

[00:34:46.000]
, you can download the individual documents. Or I can send this to Google Microsoft email. Quick send options are here at the document level. I also have them in my contextual toolbar. We put them in both places. Because if you have a user that's at this point, and they decide they want to keep this article. They don't have to scroll all the way back up. They can just click, send to.

[00:35:10.000]
And quickly send it to Google onedrive email.

[00:35:13.000]
Download would be that Pdf.

[00:35:16.000]
Or they could print it off.

[00:35:17.000]
Also. So all options are available, and then, of course, you have it in this HTML format.

[00:35:24.000]
Every single, time.

[00:35:26.000]
Alright!

[00:35:27.000]
So I want to talk to you about a few different things. Might as well, since we're at the article level, let's talk about peer Review or.

[00:35:36.000]
Tool support, accessibility. So you have the translate feature here.

[00:35:41.000]
This translates the text into over 3 over 50 languages, over 50 languages.

[00:35:48.000]
And it'll translate the text for you.

[00:35:51.000]
You also have.

[00:35:53.000]
The ability to decrease or increase the font size.

[00:35:56.000]
You have display. Options, display, options will change the color behind the text. You can change the font. You can increase the line, letter and word spacing. So, meeting the varying needs of your users.

[00:36:07.000]
And this will actually stick with you throughout your session. So let's say, I go to this next article.

[00:36:14.000]
Let me click into this one.

[00:36:16.000]
And you can see it stuck with me.

[00:36:19.000]
So all I have to do is set it up in my 1st article, and it sticks with me.

[00:36:23.000]
If I want to go back to my default settings, I just open that box back up and click back to default settings.

[00:36:31.000]
And then we have our listen feature here.

[00:36:34.000]
You can listen to the text being read aloud. And there's some tools I want to share with you on this one. It's gonna start reading here in a moment.

[00:36:42.000]
Me pause it real quick.

[00:36:44.000]
Make sure I have the audio. Yup. I do. Okay.

[00:36:49.000]
A strange snafu and a cross ideological.

[00:36:52.000]
This box at the bottom.

[00:36:54.000]
Is popping up because I turned on under this more button. I turned on my and large text.

[00:37:01.000]
Now this is defaulted to off.

[00:37:03.000]
So the 1st time you click into it your users will see.

[00:37:05.000]
At America's Supreme Court.

[00:37:07.000]
This type of highlighting.

[00:37:08.000]
Right.

[00:37:09.000]
Compared with the searing controversy.

[00:37:10.000]
So it's highlighting the sentence and the word that it's on.

[00:37:14.000]
In 2 different colors.

[00:37:16.000]
Under this more button. You have some settings where you can change what's being highlighted or the colors being used.

[00:37:22.000]
You can turn on the enhanced text.

[00:37:25.000]
Or enlarge texts.

[00:37:26.000]
You can download it as Mp. 3, and then there's a help button. When I enlarge that text I click, play.

[00:37:34.000]
And this will so.

[00:37:35.000]
Is America's Supreme Court has been weighing this year from.

[00:37:36.000]
Another feature that will stick with me.

[00:37:37.000]
Portion to guns, to.

[00:37:38.000]
Stick with me throughout my session.

[00:37:41.000]
I can.

[00:37:42.000]
Increase or decrease that size and click, play again.

[00:37:45.000]
Residential immunity. Murthyv. Missouri, may see.

[00:37:48.000]
At any time.

[00:37:50.000]
Okay.

[00:37:51.000]
I close that it closes it all out at the same time.

[00:37:55.000]
We already talked about interlinking and the explore panel. So those also exist here. As I said, they exist in all of your gale resources.

[00:38:03.000]
Talked about your tools to support accessibility.

[00:38:06.000]
The citation tool. The citation lives at the bottom of your.

[00:38:11.000]
Documents.

[00:38:12.000]
I can change the format anytime.

[00:38:15.000]
And I also have my citation tool. So let's say I change the format to Apa edition.

[00:38:21.000]
It will also change.

[00:38:23.000]
On my citation tool. So.

[00:38:25.000]
The citation tool. If you just need the citation, you don't need the whole article. You can do that. You can grab that information here, you can choose where you'd like to export it. You can change that format.

[00:38:36.000]
If I wanted 9th edition, I could go back to that. That's defaulted. It's defaulted to 9th edition.

[00:38:43.000]
I do have to change it at the bottom of my screen here, though this source citation controls this tool.

[00:38:49.000]
Not the other way around.

[00:38:51.000]
Okay.

[00:38:52.000]
So you have. I choose. I want to send this to my Google drive.

[00:38:57.000]
I click on the paper airplane, select Google drive and then send it, and it'll land again in a folder titled Gale Academic. One file, and I have my complete document available with my source citation attached.

[00:39:13.000]
Which is a great option that we have.

[00:39:17.000]
Okay. Something else I wanna share with you at the document level is highlights and notes.

[00:39:22.000]
So we're going to talk about this. And then we're going to go into our subject. Guide, search so highlights and notes gives you the ability to highlight a chunk of text.

[00:39:32.000]
Pick your color.

[00:39:34.000]
Just add some notes.

[00:39:36.000]
And save it.

[00:39:37.000]
Go down a little further.

[00:39:40.000]
Click on another chunk of text.

[00:39:42.000]
And choose a different color.

[00:39:47.000]
This is something about freedom of speech.

[00:39:50.000]
So I'm gonna save that.

[00:39:51.000]
Now.

[00:39:53.000]
Best practice is to send this. Send this to your Google drive Microsoft onedrive email or print. So you have this complete dark document that you've marked up.

[00:40:02.000]
And then what happens is.

[00:40:04.000]
It will be marked up just like this.

[00:40:06.000]
But then, below your citation, those 2 chunks of text will live with any notes you've taken.

[00:40:11.000]
So my blue and my orange text would be here, and then I'd also have my.

[00:40:17.000]
Notes that I've taken. Something else is happening, too. So best practice. Send this.

[00:40:22.000]
Click on Google drive and send it.

[00:40:25.000]
And I'm already signed in. So it's automatically gonna put it in a folder titled Gale Academic. One file and it'll be waiting for me in my Google drive.

[00:40:35.000]
Let's go back to Bill of Rights.

[00:40:38.000]
And let's click into a newspaper article.

[00:40:44.000]
I'm gonna just select a chunk of text here at the top.

[00:40:49.000]
Let's call these facts.

[00:40:54.000]
And save something else that's here is the define button. So if there's a word I'm struggling with, I can highlight it click to find, and it's going to take me to a page in the Webster's Dictionary, so I can find that information just as you can in your e-readers. It's a helpful tool.

[00:41:09.000]
Now, what's happening is my highlights and notes section is being built out.

[00:41:13.000]
I'm gonna open that back up.

[00:41:14.000]
Click, view all highlights and notes.

[00:41:17.000]
And here are.

[00:41:19.000]
Digital notes. I like to call them digital notes.

[00:41:22.000]
If you hear anyone at Galicom digital notes, they.

[00:41:25.000]
I started it. You're talking to the person that started calling them digital notes. And it's kind of stuck in the company. So been here a little while, anyhow. They are. They really are. They're digital notes. They're great explanation of exactly what they are., and you can edit your notes. So let's say, I wanna edit this. I wanna put some notes in here about this chunk of text that I've grabbed from an article. I can do that and save it.

[00:41:50.000]
. I can also add labels. So maybe I want some facts or some.

[00:41:56.000]
Quotes, let's say, quote here.

[00:42:00.000]
This is a quote I can save that, and a legend is created.

[00:42:05.000]
Okay, I want to send this to.

[00:42:08.000]
My Google drive onedrive email. I can do that.

[00:42:12.000]
My bibliography will go with it.

[00:42:14.000]
Not only that, but I could go back into my Google drive.

[00:42:18.000]
And this will be hyperlinked out to this article. Now it won't save my highlights and notes. That's what this message is. It won't save that in the article. That's why best practice always send your entire article.

[00:42:29.000]
Somewhere, so you have it after you've marked it up. But if you just want the highlights and notes too, which is a great tool to utilize.

[00:42:36.000]
Your article will be hyperlinked out from your Google Drive or Microsoft onedrive. So you could come back to that article, utilize those interlinking tools or the explore panel, find more content related to that article.

[00:42:50.000]
So it's.

[00:42:51.000]
Great tool and a great option for your users. The bibliographies always attached. But if I click on my citation tool.

[00:42:59.000]
There's my work cited, or bibliography page. I could change the format, choose where I like to export it to.

[00:43:04.000]
So I always love to show this feature, because it's such a great tool to utilize within your resources.

[00:43:10.000]
And again shared across all your Gale resources.

[00:43:14.000]
Alright!

[00:43:15.000]
Let's go.

[00:43:18.000]
Me go into. I want to share some advanced search tools here. So I'm going to click on advanced search.

[00:43:24.000]
We already talked about topic, finder.

[00:43:28.000]
So let's go into subject, guide, search.

[00:43:30.000]
I wanna just show you a few things here.

[00:43:32.000]
So I'm gonna do a search on diabetes.

[00:43:37.000]
There we go. It comes up to the top.

[00:43:39.000]
Do search, assist.

[00:43:41.000]
Collects.

[00:43:42.000]
Select, search.

[00:43:45.000]
And I want you to see that there's many subdivisions and related subjects. So your users can access not only that full content. You can see a lot of results here.

[00:43:55.000]
Are showing up for diabetes meitis. If I click on that, it'll take me to all I can access that content, or I can go to the sub.

[00:44:04.000]
Divisions, here.

[00:44:06.000]
I can.

[00:44:07.000]
I'm on topics. I can do location dates. I can filter by any of these.

[00:44:11.000]
But I can go to anything related with like casualties. Let's say there's only 10 or 10 cases.

[00:44:18.000]
Wait! Where am I at?

[00:44:19.000]
85 cases are available. Here's some case studies that I have.

[00:44:24.000]
treatment, so you can see great way to find content. Another option.

[00:44:30.000]
For your searching is using that subject guide as an as a search option to find that great content.

[00:44:40.000]
Alright, and then we have related subjects.

[00:44:43.000]
And you can see this helps narrow down some of those terms.

[00:44:51.000]
Alright!

[00:44:52.000]
Also, we're gonna do. I'm gonna share the I'm gonna save that for the next resource. Okay.

[00:44:58.000]
So let's.

[00:45:00.000]
Let's go into one file. News.

[00:45:04.000]
And.

[00:45:06.000]
Yeah. Let's go into one file. News.

[00:45:08.000]
So we covered everything here within Gale academic, one file.

[00:45:13.000]
Now let's go into.

[00:45:15.000]
Gale Onefile news.

[00:45:17.000]
I'm gonna scroll down.

[00:45:19.000]
They are alphabetical.

[00:45:21.000]
And we're going to go into this resource here.

[00:45:27.000]
Now you can see a little different. We don't have an economic one file in general. One file we have the.

[00:45:33.000]
Browse by topic or browse, by discipline.

[00:45:36.000]
you in one and our other one file products. You're going to see this where you have the.

[00:45:43.000]
.

[00:45:45.000]
The the still, the same tools and features, the basic search, advanced search. You have your contextual toolbar, the ability to utilize these search tools.

[00:45:54.000]
That are listed here, too, or do just a basic search. So if I were to do a basic search on any topic, it would pull back all that information right? We just don't have those topics or those subject categories or disciplines available.

[00:46:09.000]
So what I wanna do is I'm actually going to do a publication search.

[00:46:14.000]
So I wanna show you how you can create a journal.

[00:46:18.000]
So let's say I'm interested in the Washington Post.

[00:46:24.000]
I'm just gonna click, search.

[00:46:29.000]
And we have Washington Post, Washington Post videos. If you did New York Times, you would see.

[00:46:34.000]
All kinds of content that we have available. But we're new. So we're pulling this specific information. The Washington Post.

[00:46:41.000]
And you could see just yesterday was the most recent publication that we had added, I can create a journal. So every time New Content, or The Washington Post. New.

[00:46:53.000]
.

[00:46:54.000]
Most recent.

[00:46:56.000]
Coverage or information is available. What I can do is set up a journal alert, so that I am alerted and can access that information.

[00:47:04.000]
So I can set it up using my email.

[00:47:07.000]
And again as frequently as I want to, in whatever format I want.

[00:47:12.000]
Using that.

[00:47:13.000]
Rss, feed.

[00:47:14.000]
Both options are available, just like with a search alert, we can set up journalists also.

[00:47:20.000]
Or I can go directly to July 10.th

[00:47:23.000]
And access without any type of subscription. I can access directly from my library.

[00:47:29.000]
The Washington Post.

[00:47:31.000]
And all the articles that were just added.

[00:47:33.000]
So again, creating that journal, alert every time something has been added for the Washington Post, or, say, the New York Times. The Economista today.

[00:47:44.000]
I will share with you an idea of a search alert that so this is different than, we just did publication alert.

[00:47:53.000]
But if we did, you can see I have search alert here, too, as an option. Now that I'm.

[00:47:57.000]
On the can access the individual documents.

[00:48:02.000]
I had a person come an attendee that was at a conference that I was at.

[00:48:07.000]
And I did a session for, and I talked about creating search and journal alerts with your one file products and.

[00:48:15.000]
He shared with me.

[00:48:16.000]
That they have Google alerts set up for their library, for their individual library and their library director. And he gets information, you know, from those Google alerts. But one thing Google doesn't do is it doesn't look at the Library journal.

[00:48:30.000]
And so he did. A quick.

[00:48:32.000]
search alert, he set that up, but did a quick search within the resources, and found some.

[00:48:38.000]
Some content available from the library.

[00:48:42.000]
.

[00:48:43.000]
On his library and his director, and that he didn't have available before. So, this is, it's a great way to find that type of content and set up those search alerts. Just another idea of how you can utilize information within the resources.

[00:48:58.000]
That Google can't do so. We already know that they're safe, authoritative, content. You're going to find within these resources. But understanding that there's additional content that you can't get everywhere, and your users can access it through their public library. They don't need a subscription to set up those publication alerts. to read the most current information on the New York Times, or from the Washington Post, for example.

[00:49:23.000]
Alright, let's use advanced search in a different way.

[00:49:26.000]
And we're towards the end of our session. So I'll just do this quickly.

[00:49:30.000]
Let's put in terms. And I'm gonna do education.

[00:49:36.000]
And I am going to select the field of subject.

[00:49:43.000]
And I want to use Utah.

[00:49:47.000]
But here I want to.

[00:49:49.000]
choose entire documents. So what I'm telling.

[00:49:53.000]
What I'm telling my resource to do is look for the subject of education and Utah.

[00:49:59.000]
Or the we'll look through the entire document for Utah.

[00:50:04.000]
So I if I could be a little bit more specific and choose the subject of Utah. But I'm gonna keep it a little bit broader.

[00:50:10.000]
Now I have all kinds of great information on the right hand side that talks about what these fields are searching for. I have my operators and special characters. We have search tips.

[00:50:21.000]
So how to use quotation marks.

[00:50:24.000]
The nice thing is, if I were to put in multiple terms here.

[00:50:28.000]
In my advanced search.

[00:50:29.000]
It would search and and then search alert, pops up.

[00:50:33.000]
My search assist, I should say.

[00:50:37.000]
.

[00:50:40.000]
See, I'm sorry to put in elementary. If I were to choose one of these.

[00:50:44.000]
It would automatically put it in quotations for me.

[00:50:48.000]
It's just a little tip and trick there.

[00:50:51.000]
And then I have some research limiters, document types, publication titles, publication subject like cell measures. I'm gonna click search.

[00:50:59.000]
And pulls back all of that content. So not over 9,000 news articles are available.

[00:51:07.000]
If I wanted to share this, I could use my get link, tool, create a persistent URL back to this exact information.

[00:51:14.000]
I can use this at many levels that get link tool at the document level. Or if I were in.

[00:51:19.000]
Academic, one file or general, one file, and I wanted to take someone directly to a certain discipline. I could use my get link tool that way, too.

[00:51:29.000]
So all those great tools are available. We covered all of them up here in the contextual toolbar. We talked about.

[00:51:36.000]
Filtering your results. We're in newspapers. So sections. Maybe I want to look for su certain sections, too. I'm looking at, and I can multi select. I want.

[00:51:46.000]
Maybe I just want business news and.

[00:51:50.000]
Let's do regional news and click. Apply.

[00:51:53.000]
And it'll filter down that content for me.

[00:51:57.000]
Alright!

[00:51:59.000]
Let me know if you have any questions. I've been keeping an eye on the QA. Box. I didn't really have anything come through. So let me go back to my Powerpoint.

[00:52:08.000]
And share with you where you can go for additional support, and that is our Gale support site.

[00:52:16.000]
Our Gale support site. The link is here at the top. This is the same one I put in the chat box at the beginning of today's training, and I already shared with you. This is where you can go to find your access Urls and title list. You'll also find your mark records all of your database icons.

[00:52:31.000]
Widgets and the ability to contact us directly, so you can reach out directly to your Gale customer success manager in the training center. You're going to find tip sheets and tutorials. There's recorded webinars.

[00:52:43.000]
, I also talked about those training toolkits that we have. The training decks are also available with all of our training notes, but you'll also find ready to go student activities to go with your Gale resources and scavenger hunts that maybe you can use for summer reading, or as you're working with students in your library programming over the summer.

[00:53:02.000]
Marketing materials, looking to promote your resources.

[00:53:06.000]
With your public library community. You can do that. We have bookmarks and posters, but we also have great digital assets available flyers.

[00:53:14.000]
in. Some are in Spanish and in English. So you're going to find both there. But email templates and blog posts.

[00:53:21.000]
But also social media posts of every shape and size you're going to find on the Gale support site. Tutorials I wanna mention are great. I shared this with you during the training. But just remember, they're great to link out on your library website because they're short and sweet. They're under 2 to 3 min long at the most, and they could be focusing on a resource, or they could be focusing on an individual tool within the resource. So.

[00:53:44.000]
Great to utilize on your library website, too.

[00:53:47.000]
That wraps our session. Your Gale customer, success manager. Their information is here, will also be included in the follow up email.

[00:53:55.000]
My name again is Tammi Burke. I'm your senior training consultant at Gale, and I thank you so much for your time today.

[00:54:01.000]
You should have the training survey should pop up when you leave. If you click, continue and fill that out. That would be great. We love to get that feedback, or there's a QR code here feel free to scan it and fill out the survey. We take that information I share internally, and also we'll share it with the folks at Utah. So thank you so much for your time. I hope you join us again. We have more sessions planned for the summer.

[00:54:24.000]
So come back and join us again for another training.

[00:54:28.000]
Thanks. Everyone.

[00:54:29.000]
