[00:00:03.000]
Welcome to your training session for the Washington State Library. Today's session is elevating higher education, harnessing the power of gale resources. My name is Tammi Burke. I'm a senior trainer at Gale, and I thank you all for your time today. If you have any questions at all throughout the session, or even at the end of today's training. Please feel free to use that QA. Box, I will say on until all the questions have been answered, my goal for you.
[00:00:27.000]
Today is to make sure you get the most out of this session. I'm going to share with you resources that are available to support higher Ed, that are being utilized in the higher Ed space. And I'm actually going to share with you also some great support materials that we have so great training materials that we have available.
[00:00:48.000]
On our Gale support site along with other questions that our academic folks ask often. So where to go for these answers, I want to make sure that you're familiar with that, and then introduce you to all those resources. So our agenda today.
[00:01:03.000]
Is 1st talking about access and then an overview of your gale resources. We're going to start with our support materials. I'm going to change it up a little bit here, talk about our support materials first, st and then we're going to go live into products. So browsing and searching and looking at content. I'm going to share with you the resource features and tools that are available. And then, again, any questions please feel free to use that QA. Box.
[00:01:27.000]
I will leave you at the end where you can go, if you have any additional questions, and that we have one on one support, and those are your gale customer success managers, and I'll provide you with their contact information.
[00:01:41.000]
So 1st accessing your Washington State library resources, you can go to this support site. And this is actually where we're going to start. If you want to follow along, I am going to put this in the chat.
[00:01:52.000]
This is a great site to bookmark, because we have created it for the Washington State Library, and it is everything you need to support your Gale resources. So it's going to be your direct Urls. It's going to be all of your training materials, marketing materials, technical documents.
[00:02:08.000]
You'll find all of this great information in one site.
[00:02:12.000]
And this is what it looks like. You'll 1st want to find your library name. If you do not find your library name, let me know. Either you can let me know during the session or send me a follow up email as a customer did yesterday, and I will pass it along to our fantastic contact at the Washington State Library, and they can work with you on that. So if you don't see your library, just let us know.
[00:02:33.000]
And you can see from the homepage. Once you do find your library name, you click, and a few items on the homepage upcoming webinars, ebooks, training, and marketing materials are very easily accessible at the bottom, but once I find my library and click, proceed, it'll take me to all of my direct links.
[00:02:53.000]
All of these links will have your location id built in. So once you've logged in, and I did not sign in with a certain account. So you'll see this location. Id is blank right now, when you sign in with your library, you have a unique location. Id, and this will help for usage. So if usage is important to you which most libraries it is, we have a fantastic gale, usage, dashboard.
[00:03:17.000]
Where you can pull all your information, grab your reports if you're looking for top searches, or maybe books that are being accessed. Maybe you're looking to build your collection, and you want to see some of those top searches. We have even a word cloud where you can pull information into word cloud. I know a lot of our librarians will use this.
[00:03:34.000]
Especially if they're focusing on usage with Gale. They use our reports.
[00:03:40.000]
To share with folks higher up in their library to kind of support what they've been doing. And so it's really so many great tools available in that usage dashboard. So we highly suggest using your direct Urls so that you can capture that information and grab those analytics specific to your library.
[00:04:00.000]
Let's talk about the gale resources, and I've put them into collections to try and make it a little bit simpler, and I want to give you a little bit of a what to use when we are not going to be able to touch into all of these resources, we would need multiple sessions. But I'm going to hit some of those top ones. And I'm pulling from different product families.
[00:04:18.000]
So I did want to give you an overview and an explanation of what you have available. And then there's all kinds of learning materials that if you wanted to do additional exploration on the resources we have so many training materials available for you to make it nice and simple, you can learn on at your own pace, or you can connect with our customer success managers, and they can walk, give you a 1 on one support, and walk you through.
[00:04:42.000]
Additional content. So let's talk about resources for learning a great one for your 1st and second year students is Gale. In context college. Now this is used the 3rd 4th year students. But really the reason why I say 1st and second year students is because.
[00:04:57.000]
We have a huge Gale in contact suite that is offered at the K. 12 level that you have available from the Washington State library. So you have a nice collection of in contact resources that hopefully students have been using since they were young, because we have from elementary all the way through into colleges, you can see. So our in contact suite, they're going to be comfortable with.
[00:05:20.000]
They've used it before. The nice thing is with your Gale resources is the tools and features are shared across all the resources. Of course, the content's going to be different, but in context is unique because we have topic pages. And we have curated information on those topic pages. So the organization of the in context, suite of resources.
[00:05:40.000]
Is going to be similar. So you have Gale and Context college, which is.
[00:05:45.000]
All academic disciplines. You'll find a little bit of everything here. And then for that global viewpoint of global issues, you have Gale and context global issues.
[00:05:55.000]
So great resources to introduce.
[00:05:58.000]
To your students, and then, along with the English classes. If you're looking for full text literature.
[00:06:06.000]
And when I speak I'm talking about poetry, short stories. We have some novels available. We have speeches and plays all in gale literature, Litfinder. So this is another resource that you have available.
[00:06:19.000]
You also have a nice collection of ebooks that the Washington State Library has purchased.
[00:06:24.000]
For you all. You may have additional ebooks that your library has purchased for you all also, and they're all going to live on the same platform. That's the beauty of. We put everything on the same location. Id. For your library. If their state or your own purchase from Gale, you would. They'd all live on the same spot. So it makes it nice and simple. But you will find a nice collection of gale ebooks, and we will touch into. I want to take a look at the medical.
[00:06:49.000]
That are available there. Nice collection to support higher. Ed.
[00:06:56.000]
To support research. You have a great periodical suite of resources. Anything with one file in the title is periodical content.
[00:07:04.000]
Where you're going to find academic journals. You're going to find magazines now. I introduced these top 3 at top, because we like to call them the Big 3.
[00:07:15.000]
Our general one file our public libraries utilize this resource a little bit more, but I did want to make you aware that you do have it. It's great for those popular magazines. More of that general reference type content. You're going to find in general one file where academic, one file academic. One file has the browse by discipline feature. It also has more academic journals. So it's looking more at those.
[00:07:40.000]
Journals that are available, and that's the type of content you'll find in academic one file.
[00:07:46.000]
Where Gale, one file news, is all sorts of news publications. Now, there's a little bit more periodical content in there besides just newspapers, but it's focused more on newspapers. And we're a global company.
[00:07:58.000]
So you will find publications from around the world. It's not just limited to the Us. In all of these one file resources. So keep that in mind. But we like to call these the Big 3 because they have the largest amount of content where we also have. You also have a huge one file collection, and these are subsets so meaning that diversity studies. Are you going to find.
[00:08:21.000]
Some of the, a lot of this content in academic one file.
[00:08:25.000]
And also general. One file. Chances are, yes, but you'll also find some unique content. And why we do this is because we want to provide you with more of those focused.
[00:08:36.000]
Resources on topics like diversity studies or.
[00:08:40.000]
For your future teachers that are in your at the academic level. You have educators complete for Spanish and Portuguese publication. Maybe you have world languages. And you want to pull these in. You have Informe Academico, and you have so many more. One file unique collections available. From the Washington State library, and we are going to touch into academic one file today.
[00:09:06.000]
In your health and medicine suite. These resources are great for health and wellness, and medical professionals or medical students.
[00:09:13.000]
And we do have health and wellness. Now health and wellness is great. If you have any.
[00:09:19.000]
I. We call this more of the consumer.
[00:09:23.000]
Resource for those at the Public Library. Patrons are utilizing this, but it's also great for any staff.
[00:09:31.000]
Counselors. Or maybe you have any therapists that are working with students, that health and wellness resources really great for them, because they're going to find great support, information.
[00:09:41.000]
Or for our junior colleges. Health and wellness is a really good resource there, too. When you get to those medical professionals, nursing students, medical students, maybe PA's that you have in your buildings. These resources here.
[00:09:56.000]
Gale health and medicine that's focused more for those folks. So this is like, I said, what to use one kind of talk that we're having now. But the one file. Health and medicine is great for those medical professionals, and.
[00:10:09.000]
Medical students.
[00:10:11.000]
And also medical researchers. Great resource for them, too.
[00:10:15.000]
Focusing more on nursing. You have nursing and Allied health.
[00:10:19.000]
Physical therapy of physical therapy and sports, medicine.
[00:10:22.000]
Psychology, you have one specifically for psychology. And again, these are just a few. There's even more available. And then, of course, academic. One file supports all this area when you're talking about health and medicine.
[00:10:36.000]
In our business suite. We have great resources for future entrepreneurs, our business courses small, even small businesses. You might have some students, I know one of my 3 kids has a small business that every summer he works for, and so he's always devouring anything that I can provide for him. And this is one of those cases where we have these 3 business resources available. But to support.
[00:11:01.000]
Those business courses, too. So you have Gale business insight business insights is going to be. And we are going to go into this one. Today you're going to find company overviews. You're going to find.

Great. If you're looking for swat analysis or financial information for certain companies, you're also going to find reports and industry specific news. You're going to be able to look at. It's not just us. It's also global. So the global market you can take a look at here using gale business insights.
[00:11:32.000]
And then Gale business entrepreneurship has industry information. But also you're going to find the complete set of the business plans handbook. All the volumes are available there digitally. And so you have those great business plans, and it takes you through step by step. So when you're starting out.
[00:11:49.000]
Looking or looking for a business or thinking about a business. Then you're moving into funding. We have information, including directories available. Maybe you're looking for funding angel funding, and you want information on it. This is a great resource for it. Then it takes you to managing your business, or, I should say, starting that business.

[00:12:16.000]
So, looking at that type of content, then we move into managing the business. How do you manage this business now that you're here. What are some support you have available? So when you're talking to business students or future entrepreneurs, this is a great resource. That kind of takes them through that, step by step, process.
[00:12:33.000]
And then bringing it all together. Is your gale. One file business again, one file. So it's periodical content. But talking about the business, different industries within the business world. This is a great resource to access for that type of information.
[00:12:47.000]
Please let me know if you have any questions. That was a very what we're going to do now is 1st go into our support materials, and then we'll go into the individual resources.
[00:12:59.000]
So I usually don't start out that way. But I was thinking about it this morning, and I'm thinking about my higher Ed folks and those at the academic libraries. And we get a lot of questions. So I want to make sure that I answer those right off the bat.
[00:13:10.000]
So when I am on our the support site, and I already provided you with this link, I will provide it at the end. It'll also be in your follow up email. You'll get this link again and again and again. But it is like I said, a great one.
[00:13:25.000]
To bookmark. So.
[00:13:28.000]
If I'm looking for the Washington State Library, I'm just going to use their account today.
[00:13:32.000]
As you can see right from the homepage. I do have my upcoming webinars. Here's the one that we're in today. We have one more next week.
[00:13:40.000]
We had 2 earlier this week. I can go right to my resources, ebooks, training, and marketing materials. Why, I want to log in with my account is, let me click, proceed.
[00:13:50.000]
Because when I look at my resource it will have my location Id built in.
[00:13:57.000]
So now when I use these Urls.
[00:14:01.000]
I can track usage.
[00:14:04.000]
And you can see like I said, we have quite a few in that one file product family. I didn't pull them all out. We have quite a few different resources available.
[00:14:13.000]
So great to highlight. If you're using any lib guides which I'm going to share with you in a moment, we have created some for you.
[00:14:19.000]
They are great to pull into.
[00:14:22.000]
You have the ability to export all the links right here.
[00:14:25.000]
If you're looking for a certain product family like you just want.
[00:14:29.000]
The In contact suite.
[00:14:31.000]
You have college and global issues, you can do that. We have elementary middle school and high school also available from the Washington State library, or just looking for literature. You have Gale litfinders, you can quickly see. You can filter down to.
[00:14:47.000]
The next is your ebooks.
[00:14:51.000]
And I just want to touch into this real quick. These are the reason why I want to point this out is because if you need the mark records you're going to find them here.
[00:14:59.000]
So if you click into ebooks 1st again, login.
[00:15:02.000]
You go to ebooks. Mark records are here.
[00:15:05.000]
They're also our direct urls for each of your ebooks.
[00:15:09.000]
Under training materials. This is what I want to share with you.
[00:15:13.000]
You 1st land in the Washington State Library. These are all of these sessions that we've recorded.
[00:15:19.000]
Over the years, and the most recent ones are here too.
[00:15:22.000]
Or you can find training materials by product.
[00:15:26.000]
So if I open up by product and look at academic one file.
[00:15:31.000]
Right at the top I see the Lib guides that I have available.
[00:15:35.000]
And these are specific to our higher ed products.
[00:15:38.000]
You'll see that our academic team has created multiple guides. You're going to find professional development materials like a slide deck. All of our recorded webinars that are specific to either academic one file or our one file periodical family.
[00:15:53.000]
Resource, guides.
[00:15:56.000]
Tip sheets, tutorials, tutorials are great to link out, even including some of our tools like Get link and citation tool, and the highlights and notes.
[00:16:06.000]
Click into one of these live guides.
[00:16:08.000]
And share that with you. Let me scroll the way back up.
[00:16:12.000]
So if I'm looking at, let's go into nursing resources. Guide.
[00:16:17.000]
I'll click view. And here it takes me into that live guide over here. Best bet for nursing resources.
[00:16:25.000]
I can open that up.
[00:16:27.000]
Open up nursing and Allied health, and it gives me information on that resource.
[00:16:33.000]
There's some resources in these live guides. I will say these are created for all our customers. So like Gale, interactive human anatomy, that is not a resource that you have from the Washington State Library, but it is again. These live guides have been created for all customers, but you do have one file, nursing, health and wellness, one file, health and medicine.
[00:16:52.000]
You have all of these other resources available in this lib guide you.
[00:16:56.000]
Utilize, or you again build your own.
[00:17:02.000]
And then there's additional support here below.
[00:17:05.000]
As you can see, ebooks academic, one file you have that.
[00:17:10.000]
I go back. So I just wanted to point out that you do have those types of live guides available in a new tab.
[00:17:20.000]
So lib guides are at the top.
[00:17:23.000]
And you're going to find that type of information. Let me open business insights. Not everyone has a lib guide.
[00:17:31.000]
Like you do in academic one file again, this is very focused for higher. Ed, so you're going to find lib guides under this resource but business insights. You may not find lib guides on every single one, but you're going to find something else like here's.
[00:17:43.000]
A tip sheet for, and it's an instructional tool for utilizing this resource. And this is a faculty teaching guide.
[00:17:52.000]
So you'll find things like that, or you might find.
[00:17:57.000]
Tutorials specifically for higher Ed available.
[00:18:03.000]
So lots of great information. We if we have any activities available, you'll see them here, too.
[00:18:09.000]
But just wanted to point that out. So that's under training marketing.
[00:18:15.000]
Same idea. It's byproduct.
[00:18:18.000]
So we have the Washington State Library. We did create one document, but.
[00:18:22.000]
By product is where you'll want to go. So if you want to promote business entrepreneurship, you can see we have blog templates, press release, product description, social media, posts.
[00:18:31.000]
All ready to go for you.
[00:18:35.000]
And then always very important to our higher Ed folks.
[00:18:39.000]
Because we do. When you talk about discovery, you may have some questions when you're using your direct Urls, and we've linked out some, and these have come up specifically questions that we've received from the Washington State Library. So we've added those technical documents.
[00:18:54.000]
From folks other folks in your state. So we've added them here. So we have a lot of great tech documents to help you maximize your discoverability in Google Scholar, for example.
[00:19:06.000]
We have your Vpat information, and then the website will take you to the Washington State Library.
[00:19:12.000]
So that's your support site, your support materials. Now let's go into your products. Now, I am accessing your products through the gale page. We have Gale pages available, and these are complementary resource sites where all of your gale resources live. You can even add in resources from other vendors. It's great. I we have community colleges that'll use this a lot where.
[00:19:35.000]
They don't have their. They have one tech person, and they don't get a lot of opportunity to make changes or updates to their library website, which you might be nodding and like. Yep, that's me.
[00:19:46.000]
You have complete control over this, the link.
[00:19:50.000]
Will remain the same, even if you've done some customization. So keep that in mind. That's an option. And your customer success. Managers can help with that process.
[00:19:58.000]
So the 1st resource we are going to go into is we're going to end with Gale In Context: college. But we're going to start with Gale academic one file, because I'll touch into Gale In Context College a little later. I like to start with it. But this time I want to change it up a little bit and start with academic. One file.
[00:20:14.000]
Academic. One file, few tools I want to point out at the top. I have the ability to sign in with Google or Microsoft. I can also translate all of the navigation. I'm going to sign in with Google.
[00:20:26.000]
I'm on my computer. So it helps make it a little quicker. I can translate the navigation. So these tools here in my toolbar.
[00:20:35.000]
And I'm at 34 different languages.
[00:20:38.000]
Basic search, advanced search, very self explanatory. I do want to point out a few items under advanced search. As we work through the resource.
[00:20:46.000]
Browse by discipline, and I want to talk to you about browse by discipline as compared to doing a basic search, and then some consistency across all of our Gale resources that I think you're going to really love. If you're not already aware. We also have some search tool options here at the bottom topic, finder, subject, guide, search, publication search. So when you're talking about that higher Ed level.
[00:21:07.000]
Academic level. You have researchers.
[00:21:10.000]
Again, from 1st year, students to your faculty members where they are going to be utilizing these tools. And we have a lot of information, a lot of options to do some searching, a lot of research limits available under advanced search, or, again, looking for a certain subject or a certain publication.
[00:21:28.000]
Where topic finder is a visual representation of your search results. And it's interactive. Now, all of these, even though they're on the homepage, do live under advanced search, too.
[00:21:38.000]
So they're all found here in all of your gale products. You will find all of the search options available under advanced search.
[00:21:46.000]
So when I select that you can see here, it lands us right into advanced search, but I can quickly change it to subject, guide, search.
[00:21:54.000]
Publication, search or.
[00:21:56.000]
Topic, finder.
[00:21:59.000]
Go when I go. Want to go back to the homepage and any of your Gale resources. You just click into the banner here and it'll take me right back to that homepage.
[00:22:07.000]
Now browse by discipline. You can see some of the areas we've here. Now, this is.
[00:22:11.000]
For our general one file and academic one file. We've created this browse option and your other one file resources. You won't see the browse option you'll just have because they're already focused on specific content. So if you're like a diversity studies or computer science, for example, it's already focused on computer science. So the brows by discipline, because academic. One file covers many subjects.
[00:22:36.000]
That's why we we provided it, plus, I'm going to share with you. Let me show psychology. So let's say, I'm interested in psychology.
[00:22:44.000]
And specifically, memory.
[00:22:48.000]
You can see all of the different topic pages, and these are collections of information on that specific topic of memory. So now I'm going to.
[00:22:57.000]
Memory as it relates to psychology, where, if I were to just do a basic search.
[00:23:05.000]
And I did a search on memory, I would get different things. It wouldn't be directly related to psychology. It might be computer memory. So. And that's not what I'm interested in. I'm interested in psychology and memory in this way. So you can see how that browse by discipline.
[00:23:20.000]
Really helps your users.
[00:23:22.000]
Find that content quicker because our subject matter experts have already gone in and made those curated those collections for them. So it does make it a little bit easier, and you can see right away. Academic journals is here at the top. It's our 1st box that we're seeing. We can see in our.
[00:23:39.000]
Summary here that these are peer reviewed. They get a little peer reviewed Checkmark. If they've been peer reviewed, which you'll find a lot of that content here. If I only wanted peer reviewed journals I can use underneath my filter your results. I have that ability to select peer review journals.
[00:23:56.000]
If I need the document to contain images.
[00:23:58.000]
Here's my topic finder. Also, if I select topic finder from here as compared to the homepage or under advanced search.
[00:24:07.000]
Topic find this topic finder will only pull in these results from my memory. Topic page.
[00:24:14.000]
So great tool I can use if I like, that visual.
[00:24:17.000]
Option filtering my results. I have that ability to filter down by publication date.
[00:24:24.000]
By subject.
[00:24:26.000]
Document, type.
[00:24:28.000]
Some of these you can. You could see, you can not only search, but multi.
[00:24:33.000]
I have publication. So if there's certain publication titles that you're interested in, this is a great way to filter down just to those publication titles and for higher Ed and research that we get a lot of that specific information that's needed.
[00:24:47.000]
Sections. This applies to newspapers.
[00:24:50.000]
Lexile measure not really used that much at the higher level. But we have high school students that will use this resource for ap accelerated programs.
[00:25:00.000]
So that's why we included measure. And then the ability to search within a really quick way to drill down and find content very quickly, and any filters I choose here.
[00:25:12.000]
Will be applied to all of my content at one time. So let's say I do want everything just from the past year.
[00:25:20.000]
It filters that down very quickly.
[00:25:22.000]
And I can use my get link tool, and it provides a persistent URL back to this exact spot.
[00:25:33.000]
I can remove that filter.
[00:25:35.000]
Again get link lives in my contextual toolbar.
[00:25:38.000]
It's 1 of our tools that provides a persistent URL back to this specific content. So even if I filtered it down, you can see that how easy it is to get folks back to that spot.
[00:25:48.000]
Another thing I want to share with you in this resource before we go into the next one is if I've done a basic search. So I'm going to go back to the homepage. I don't have to. But I could do. I could do that basic search from any spot within this resource.
[00:26:02.000]
But let's say I'm interested in.
[00:26:09.000]
Artificial intelligence I'm going to use search.
[00:26:14.000]
And the reason why I'm showing you this is because.
[00:26:18.000]
In our, and you could see a lot of content came back. So this at this point.
[00:26:23.000]
Filtering my results is going to be a helpful tool. I did not browse by discipline. I just did a basic search. So you can see the difference between the 2.
[00:26:31.000]
But what I wanted to point out is.
[00:26:34.000]
Search alert. So when you've done a basic search, you can.
[00:26:39.000]
Create a search alert. So anytime any new information is added, you can have it sent to you via email.
[00:26:45.000]
And you can choose your format or HTML.
[00:26:48.000]
How often you would like it sent, or.
[00:26:51.000]
You can use the Rss. Feed and put it right, and that's what I do. I don't know if you can see this right here.
[00:26:57.000]
This is a search assist I have, with the election coming up, and I haven't read it in a hot second, as you can see, but new information is being added to these resources every day throughout the day we have the lowest embargo rate on the market. So you, we have a lot of content for our periodical publications that are added all day throughout the day. So my, especially with the elections coming up.
[00:27:19.000]
I have a lot that I need to catch up on, and I did just look at it the other day. So a lot of new content was obviously added, based on my.
[00:27:27.000]
Subject that I was searching for. So you have search alert again, is right here.
[00:27:33.000]
Alright. So now that we've talked about this resource, let me jump into another one and we're I'm going to keep building your knowledge.
[00:27:41.000]
I'm trying to think. Oh, there's 1 other thing before I leave this one that's unique to the one file products.
[00:27:46.000]
And that is under our publication search.
[00:27:51.000]
You have the ability, and I'm just going to use the let's just use the Washington Post. Keep it simple.
[00:28:03.000]
So the Washington Post.
[00:28:05.000]
When I select it.
[00:28:08.000]
I have the ability to create a journal alert.
[00:28:12.000]
So just like our search, alert, you can create. And this is.
[00:28:16.000]
For your Gale resources. This is unique to your one file resources.
[00:28:20.000]
And the great thing is with these alerts again, you can pick HTML or plain text, but when you're in any of your gale resources. You'll notice that the content.
[00:28:32.000]
Is always in an HTML format.
[00:28:36.000]
But if you need a Pdf.
[00:28:38.000]
You have the ability to download. So on every single document that you find within this resource in any of your Gale resources.
[00:28:45.000]
You'll always see the HTML form.
[00:28:48.000]
And also have that Pdf option.
[00:28:51.000]
So. Consistency is very important to us at Gale, and we want our users to feel that when they go into any of these resources. They're getting the same experience and finding exactly what they need in the format that they need. It.
[00:29:05.000]
Alright! Let's go into.
[00:29:07.000]
Go back to my. I spent a lot of time in academic one file, so let me jump into a few others.
[00:29:14.000]
going to touch into business insights.
[00:29:18.000]
Few things I want to point out. Majority of the stuff that I'm going to share with you is on the homepage again. Basic and advanced search.
[00:29:24.000]
All of the tools are the same. Here's my Google, now a little different here in my contextual toolbar, because this is unique to this resource. I have the ability to compare items.
[00:29:34.000]
So comparing, I can compare companies, countries, and territories. I have the option to chart or table.
[00:29:41.000]
So right from that homepage I can use that compare Feature.
[00:29:45.000]
I can browse through content.
[00:29:49.000]
I have search history, get link and highlights and notes. These are always these 3 are always here on the homepage. Get link and highlights are always on every.
[00:29:56.000]
Every page. You'll see that option like I shared with you. You can grab a link back to even filtered content.
[00:30:03.000]
Right away at the top. You see, most search companies, and these companies have company profiles.
[00:30:10.000]
Below that we have top business. Here's our most used.
[00:30:16.000]
Research topics. Most used topics are here.
[00:30:20.000]
And then industries. Here's the most searched industries that we highlight, but you can browse all. There's over a thousand.
[00:30:28.000]
And then understanding major markets. Here's the most searched countries and territories, but I can browse all the countries and territories.
[00:30:37.000]
So let's go back up to the top, and I love to choose Amazon.
[00:30:43.000]
When we access the company profile, you can see all of the information on the company here at the top. Some of this information is hyperlinked out.
[00:30:52.000]
We have the Swat analysis explanation here. And then here's where I can read that full swot analysis.
[00:31:01.000]
Here you can see the full swot analysis.
[00:31:05.000]
And I can download this or print it off.
[00:31:09.000]
It'll give me that nice Pdf.
[00:31:13.000]
Of course, I have a company overview. I have some in-depth articles or company details specific below that. I have all of my financial performance, information, balance sheet, cash, flow income my ratios, my investment report, financial performance over time.
[00:31:31.000]
I can use the compare tool here.
[00:31:34.000]
If I select any of these like, maybe I'm interested in the full balance sheet.
[00:31:39.000]
I don't have to go back to that company profile page to access those other items. The income statement, cash flow ratios, investment reports. There's sec filings.
[00:31:49.000]
You're going to see here for Amazon.
[00:31:51.000]
I have some filter options, and then it takes you right into that balance sheet.
[00:31:57.000]
Jump to cash, flow statement.
[00:32:00.000]
And it loads that information.
[00:32:03.000]
I want to go back to the company profile. That option is here.
[00:32:10.000]
Few other things I want to point out. It's going to load this trying to load that graph. It takes a little bit. There.
[00:32:15.000]
Any competitors. I can compare companies.
[00:32:18.000]
Industry, specific information. I can browse all industries, and then below that, I go into all of my company specific articles. I can search within my results.
[00:32:28.000]
But this takes me to.
[00:32:30.000]
Information on Amazon. You can see you're going to find some market research reports.
[00:32:35.000]
Train, trade, journal, articles.
[00:32:37.000]
That we've pulled out market share rankings.
[00:32:41.000]
And rankings. You can find that in case studies so lots of great company articles that are available.
[00:32:47.000]
If I select an industry.
[00:32:50.000]
Let's go into pet supplies.
[00:32:53.000]
Not only does it give me information on the industry, profile.
[00:32:57.000]
But over here to the right I can see top companies by revenue.
[00:33:01.000]
Maybe I'm interested in. Okay, what's happening in Japan. We've hyperlinked out even the country and territory. So even from this screen, where I'm in a specific industry. I can go to.
[00:33:14.000]
Japan and find information on that territory.
[00:33:19.000]
Top companies, in Japan.
[00:33:21.000]
So you can see where you get that global. You can go into that global viewpoint, Eric, global information on that company.
[00:33:27.000]
So I don't have to always access it from the homepage, but.
[00:33:31.000]
It is always there at the bottom.
[00:33:35.000]
So that's all I did is I went into an industry.
[00:33:39.000]
And then clicked into.
[00:33:41.000]
One of the top companies in that industry.
[00:33:44.000]
And found out more global information about that company.
[00:33:47.000]
So that scale business insights.
[00:33:49.000]
Let's jump into another resource.
[00:33:52.000]
And this time I want to touch into.
[00:33:56.000]
Let's go into Gale In. Context, college.
[00:34:03.000]
There we go!
[00:34:05.000]
Looks like our. It's in in the in contact suite.
[00:34:10.000]
Our in contact suite of resources which you're going to find rich multimedia organized with these topic categories with topic pages.
[00:34:19.000]
It's has topics of interest scrolling at the top of the page again.
[00:34:23.000]
Students are working with this in the elementary middle school and high school level. So when they get to college, this is a really good one to get your 1st and second year students started in because they're familiar with the in context resources.
[00:34:38.000]
But the topics. The information is going to be different, because it's geared towards college.
[00:34:43.000]
So you're going to find information, let's say literature and arts. And maybe I'm specifically interested in Frankenstein. I know my daughter as a freshman. This was one of the books that they.
[00:34:53.000]
That they read. It was part of her lit class, even though she was a science major. That is a class. She had to take her 1st couple years. So.
[00:35:00.000]
Frankenstein, which is a favorite of mine to even pull up the information. But you can see it's organized with an image and essay overview. This one has some quick facts. You can see major characters.
[00:35:11.000]
In the center of the page. We have all this information, all these different content types available.
[00:35:17.000]
In our in contact resources, we have featured content.
[00:35:20.000]
Or featured issues. If you're in global issues. And this is hand selected information by our subject matter. Specialists.
[00:35:29.000]
When I do get to the document level.
[00:35:33.000]
I have great tools to support accessibility, to translate into over 57 languages, to increase or decrease the font size.
[00:35:41.000]
To change the display and customize this to suit my needs by changing the color.
[00:35:47.000]
The font line, letter, and wordpacing, and this will stick with me throughout my session. Go to another article. It's already set up. I just set it up on the 1st one.
[00:36:00.000]
And then it sticks with me a closeout of my session, and it will.
[00:36:04.000]
Clear that information.
[00:36:06.000]
To go back to default. I just open that back up.
[00:36:09.000]
And choose back to default settings.
[00:36:12.000]
I also have the ability to listen to the text being read aloud.
[00:36:17.000]
And I have some tools here under the more button.
[00:36:20.000]
Where I can enlarge that text. Listen to it as an Mp. 3. I have some setting options available.
[00:36:26.000]
Frankenstein, Symbol.
[00:36:29.000]
I see Frankenstein as an intensely sane person.
[00:36:30.000]
Let me. So when I turn on, let me pause that when I turn on the enhanced.
[00:36:36.000]
Sorry in large text. It used to be called enhanced text visibility, and I.
[00:36:40.000]
Keep trying to blend the 2. So in large text it enlarges the text at the bottom of the page, it pulls it out.
[00:36:46.000]
And I can increase that font size. So really, again, supporting the varying needs of your users.
[00:36:55.000]
And this is another feature that will stick with me throughout my session.
[00:37:01.000]
I close that box? Actually let me remove this. So it.
[00:37:04.000]
Is it, cookie down there.
[00:37:06.000]
There we go. I want to send this article. I can quickly send it to Google, download or print. I also have this explore panel. I had it in.
[00:37:16.000]
With my one file resources, too. I'm not sure if you noticed it there. But this explore panel provides you with supplemental information.
[00:37:24.000]
Similar to the article you're on.
[00:37:27.000]
You'll find additional content.
[00:37:31.000]
We also have the citations attached. So this one.
[00:37:36.000]
Maybe this is, of course, almost 4,000 words. Let me go back.
[00:37:40.000]
I always choose the really long ones, for whatever reason.
[00:37:45.000]
2. It's the topic. Here's 1. We'll go into horror.
[00:37:49.000]
So what I want to share with you is at the bottom. Some of these will have critical thinking questions built in.
[00:37:56.000]
I enlarge the text. That's why it's so large on the page. But let me show you at the bottom the citation is attached.
[00:38:02.000]
We can change that format.
[00:38:04.000]
We can choose where we'd like to export it to, or simply copy and paste. But if I want to send this to.
[00:38:11.000]
Say my Google drive, or onedrive.
[00:38:14.000]
And I need Apa format. I can scroll down to the bottom, select Apa.
[00:38:19.000]
And then when I send it.
[00:38:22.000]
The document will turn into either a Google Doc or a Microsoft word, Doc, depending on where I send it.
[00:38:30.000]
Or email, but.
[00:38:32.000]
It will, the citation will be attached, and it'll be in the correct format.
[00:38:37.000]
I also have the ability again to download this, as a Pdf. Citation will be attached in the format I chose.
[00:38:43.000]
Or print it off.
[00:38:49.000]
The citation tool is also here at the top.
[00:38:52.000]
And that will provide me with just the citation.
[00:38:55.000]
So I have all those options available and the options to export.
[00:39:03.000]
The last feature I want to share with you. Let me go back out.
[00:39:06.000]
Is our highlights and notes. Feature.
[00:39:09.000]
Within this resource.
[00:39:14.000]
Go into a biography.
[00:39:20.000]
This is one of my favorite publishers. I'll say I'll let you. Discover.
[00:39:25.000]
Or exploring, discovering and exploring great publishers they have. You're going to find great content like for poetry. You'll find.
[00:39:34.000]
Poems that are actually read aloud by either the author or we also have drama department from a local university.
[00:39:43.000]
That performed the play, or the readings of these poems, so.
[00:39:49.000]
Again discovering and exploring poetry, exploring short stories or Shakespeare, or they're really great. And you'll find them in the in context, resources.
[00:40:01.000]
So just one of those hidden gems.
[00:40:04.000]
Highlights and notes. I can click and chunk, click and drag over a chunk of text.
[00:40:09.000]
Choose my color, but this box will pop up.
[00:40:14.000]
Add whatever notes I want. There.
[00:40:16.000]
Save that information. Here's some critical thinking questions interesting. It's not showing this.
[00:40:23.000]
Nope, okay? So it looks like, so we, I see critical thinking questions attached to.
[00:40:30.000]
Our documents because we publish our own content. But we also work with great publishers, and it looks like discovering authors. Has these also.
[00:40:38.000]
So another. This is question one.
[00:40:43.000]
Maybe I scroll down here, and here is the.
[00:40:47.000]
Answer to question one. I want to use the same color.
[00:40:50.000]
And I maybe want to leave a summary of my thoughts.
[00:40:54.000]
Here.
[00:40:56.000]
You could see the define button, is there.
[00:40:58.000]
So if there's a term I'm struggling with.
[00:41:01.000]
I can click to find.
[00:41:03.000]
And it pulls that information from the Web's Dictionary.
[00:41:06.000]
Just like an ereader.
[00:41:08.000]
I can now best practice. Use my contextual toolbar here that floats down the page.
[00:41:14.000]
And send this. I'm going to send it to Google drive onedrive email.
[00:41:18.000]
I can also download or print, because I want to keep.
[00:41:21.000]
This entire document, and I've already marked it up.
[00:41:25.000]
And I've even added notes.
[00:41:27.000]
When I send it. What happens is.
[00:41:30.000]
Below my citation at the bottom.
[00:41:33.000]
These chunks of text that I've highlighted will land there with any notes I've taken.
[00:41:38.000]
So it turns it again into a Google Doc. But I have not only the marked up sections within the document itself, but then below, I have.
[00:41:46.000]
What I've any notes I've taken. And again, those 2 pieces of text that are 3 in this case.
[00:41:52.000]
But my highlights and notes is also being built out.
[00:41:58.000]
When I'm on a document that I've done some highlighting on again. Best practice. Do something with it first, st so you don't.
[00:42:04.000]
Lose this information. Your users will not create accounts on their Gale resources. They will need to utilize those cloud sources or workflow tools that we have by sending, downloading or printing.
[00:42:17.000]
So view all highlights and notes.
[00:42:19.000]
Here are my digital notes. I can edit my notes if I need to.
[00:42:25.000]
Save that information.
[00:42:27.000]
I can choose the format of my bibliography.
[00:42:30.000]
I can create a legend.
[00:42:33.000]
Over here this label I can label my colors. Maybe this is a fact.
[00:42:38.000]
I want to use. And this is a.
[00:42:40.000]
Quote.
[00:42:43.000]
Especially great when students are working together. Or if you're doing any type of check-in with students, your faculty members, and especially those 1st and second year students.
[00:42:54.000]
They might need a little bit more guidance when they're 1st working on their papers.
[00:42:58.000]
And this could be a helpful tool because they can send it to their Google drive onedrive email.
[00:43:05.000]
Download or print, send it to their Google drive. They can share it with their professors.
[00:43:10.000]
Professors can check in. Maybe it's part of their process, and a way for them to get some points.
[00:43:15.000]
Outside of the midterm and the final right.
[00:43:18.000]
You the bibliography be attached. So if I'm in multiple articles, imagine that here's my work cited.
[00:43:26.000]
I have just one I was in, but if I were in multiple articles I can use the highlights and notes feature again. Send that information to my Google driver, Microsoft, onedrive.
[00:43:38.000]
And then my citation tool will have all of those citations available for all of the resources that I did. Any type of highlighting.
[00:43:46.000]
That I'm plan to use in my project or my paper.
[00:43:50.000]
And I can change that format.
[00:43:53.000]
Export it wherever I need to. Maybe I'm sending it to ref works.
[00:43:57.000]
And I have that my work cited is done. My bibliography is done. It will also be attached here, so it'll land wherever you choose to send it.
[00:44:06.000]
So highlights and notes can be used in a variety of different ways, great for annotating great for talking about, 2 sides like global issues. And you're looking at pro con.
[00:44:15.000]
Of a topic. It's great. First, st for information like that. Looking at that global viewpoint.
[00:44:21.000]
Maybe you're doing some. You need highlights and notes. You're looking at those company profiles that we went over. It's a great tool to use there. So you'll find again that same tool and feature across all of your gale resources.
[00:44:33.000]
The last area I want to talk to you about is topic one of our search options. I just want to model it for you.
[00:44:40.000]
I'm going to do a quick search, so I might as well just use.
[00:44:43.000]
Do global warming, climate change.
[00:44:47.000]
Please let me know if you have any questions.
[00:44:51.000]
It brings back a visual representation of your search results. There's 2 options we have tiles or.
[00:44:58.000]
The wheel.
[00:45:00.000]
It's purely preference. And this is looking at when I kick off my search from this point it is pulling in all this information into these tiles that I have available on global warming and climate change. It looks at the 100 words.
[00:45:15.000]
And it's pulling in those top results so great for those that.
[00:45:20.000]
Keyword search. And again, it's interactive. So our students always love to use this tool.
[00:45:27.000]
You can see, I can just quickly zoom in, and it takes me to 5 different documents, articles.
[00:45:33.000]
Whatever we have available on this topic.
[00:45:38.000]
I can reset that. And remember, I shared with you from one of the topic pages. It lives.
[00:45:45.000]
Below that filter your results.
[00:45:48.000]
Let's go into. I have a dream.
[00:45:52.000]
When I'm on a content type.
[00:45:54.000]
Like, let's go into reference real quick.
[00:45:58.000]
It also lives here.
[00:46:00.000]
And here in the toolbar.
[00:46:02.000]
So in your one file resources, you'll find it here, and this, if I use it now, it's only going to pull.
[00:46:08.000]
Information from my. I have a dream topic, page.
[00:46:12.000]
Where, when I start my search.
[00:46:14.000]
Within topic finder. It's going to pull in everything from everywhere.
[00:46:17.000]
So if I prefer that topic finder feature even from a topic page, I have that option available.
[00:46:24.000]
Or again, my search results. If I'm in.
[00:46:26.000]
One file, but this is what it'll look like. So.
[00:46:29.000]
Quite a difference.
[00:46:32.000]
In my results. A little bit more drilled down.
[00:46:37.000]
Okay. Alright!
[00:46:40.000]
We're right. At the end of our time.
[00:46:42.000]
So let me go back to our Powerpoint.
[00:46:47.000]
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
[00:46:54.000]
Gale support we talked about. So we don't need to enter this talk about this again, because we covered it quite extensively at the beginning, because again, I wanted to get in front of a lot of those questions that I received from our higher Ed folks. Few things I pulled out again. There's a lib guide here is that I mentioned this during the when I was talking about the materials. But this is that instructors guide for using gale business insights.
[00:47:18.000]
And then you are going to find short video tutorials. Here's 1 on getting started with gale databases specifically for our higher Ed users.
[00:47:26.000]
And then also great marketing materials you'll find available on the Gale support site.
[00:47:35.000]
And that wraps our session again. My name is Tammi. If you have any questions, please feel free to let me know your Gale customer success. Managers are your one on one support.
[00:47:45.000]

[00:48:44.000]
Thanks everyone. If there's any questions I'll stay on.
[00:48:47.000]
Thank you, and have a great day.
Welcome to your training session for the Washington State Library. Today's session is elevating higher education, harnessing the power of gale resources. My name is Tammi Burke. I'm a senior trainer at Gale, and I thank you all for your time today. If you have any questions at all throughout the session, or even at the end of today's training. Please feel free to use that QA. Box, I will say on until all the questions have been answered, my goal for you.
[00:00:27.000]
Today is to make sure you get the most out of this session. I'm going to share with you resources that are available to support higher Ed, that are being utilized in the higher Ed space. And I'm actually going to share with you also some great support materials that we have so great training materials that we have available.
[00:00:48.000]
On our Gale support site along with other questions that our academic folks ask often. So where to go for these answers, I want to make sure that you're familiar with that, and then introduce you to all those resources. So our agenda today.
[00:01:03.000]
Is 1st talking about access and then an overview of your gale resources. We're going to start with our support materials. I'm going to change it up a little bit here, talk about our support materials first, st and then we're going to go live into products. So browsing and searching and looking at content. I'm going to share with you the resource features and tools that are available. And then, again, any questions please feel free to use that QA. Box.
[00:01:27.000]
I will leave you at the end where you can go, if you have any additional questions, and that we have one on one support, and those are your gale customer success managers, and I'll provide you with their contact information.
[00:01:41.000]
So 1st accessing your Washington State library resources, you can go to this support site. And this is actually where we're going to start. If you want to follow along, I am going to put this in the chat.
[00:01:52.000]
This is a great site to bookmark, because we have created it for the Washington State Library, and it is everything you need to support your Gale resources. So it's going to be your direct Urls. It's going to be all of your training materials, marketing materials, technical documents.
[00:02:08.000]
You'll find all of this great information in one site.
[00:02:12.000]
And this is what it looks like. You'll 1st want to find your library name. If you do not find your library name, let me know. Either you can let me know during the session or send me a follow up email as a customer did yesterday, and I will pass it along to our fantastic contact at the Washington State Library, and they can work with you on that. So if you don't see your library, just let us know.
[00:02:33.000]
And you can see from the homepage. Once you do find your library name, you click, and a few items on the homepage upcoming webinars, ebooks, training, and marketing materials are very easily accessible at the bottom, but once I find my library and click, proceed, it'll take me to all of my direct links.
[00:02:53.000]
All of these links will have your location id built in. So once you've logged in, and I did not sign in with a certain account. So you'll see this location. Id is blank right now, when you sign in with your library, you have a unique location. Id, and this will help for usage. So if usage is important to you which most libraries it is, we have a fantastic gale, usage, dashboard.
[00:03:17.000]
Where you can pull all your information, grab your reports if you're looking for top searches, or maybe books that are being accessed. Maybe you're looking to build your collection, and you want to see some of those top searches. We have even a word cloud where you can pull information into word cloud. I know a lot of our librarians will use this.
[00:03:34.000]
Especially if they're focusing on usage with Gale. They use our reports.
[00:03:40.000]
To share with folks higher up in their library to kind of support what they've been doing. And so it's really so many great tools available in that usage dashboard. So we highly suggest using your direct Urls so that you can capture that information and grab those analytics specific to your library.
[00:04:00.000]
Let's talk about the gale resources, and I've put them into collections to try and make it a little bit simpler, and I want to give you a little bit of a what to use when we are not going to be able to touch into all of these resources, we would need multiple sessions. But I'm going to hit some of those top ones. And I'm pulling from different product families.
[00:04:18.000]
So I did want to give you an overview and an explanation of what you have available. And then there's all kinds of learning materials that if you wanted to do additional exploration on the resources we have so many training materials available for you to make it nice and simple, you can learn on at your own pace, or you can connect with our customer success managers, and they can walk, give you a 1 on one support, and walk you through.
[00:04:42.000]
Additional content. So let's talk about resources for learning a great one for your 1st and second year students is Gale. In context college. Now this is used the 3rd 4th year students. But really the reason why I say 1st and second year students is because.
[00:04:57.000]
We have a huge Gale in contact suite that is offered at the K. 12 level that you have available from the Washington State library. So you have a nice collection of in contact resources that hopefully students have been using since they were young, because we have from elementary all the way through into colleges, you can see. So our in contact suite, they're going to be comfortable with.
[00:05:20.000]
They've used it before. The nice thing is with your Gale resources is the tools and features are shared across all the resources. Of course, the content's going to be different, but in context is unique because we have topic pages. And we have curated information on those topic pages. So the organization of the in context, suite of resources.
[00:05:40.000]
Is going to be similar. So you have Gale and Context college, which is.
[00:05:45.000]
All academic disciplines. You'll find a little bit of everything here. And then for that global viewpoint of global issues, you have Gale and context global issues.
[00:05:55.000]
So great resources to introduce.
[00:05:58.000]
To your students, and then, along with the English classes. If you're looking for full text literature.
[00:06:06.000]
And when I speak I'm talking about poetry, short stories. We have some novels available. We have speeches and plays all in gale literature, Litfinder. So this is another resource that you have available.
[00:06:19.000]
You also have a nice collection of ebooks that the Washington State Library has purchased.
[00:06:24.000]
For you all. You may have additional ebooks that your library has purchased for you all also, and they're all going to live on the same platform. That's the beauty of. We put everything on the same location. Id. For your library. If their state or your own purchase from Gale, you would. They'd all live on the same spot. So it makes it nice and simple. But you will find a nice collection of gale ebooks, and we will touch into. I want to take a look at the medical.
[00:06:49.000]
That are available there. Nice collection to support higher. Ed.
[00:06:56.000]
To support research. You have a great periodical suite of resources. Anything with one file in the title is periodical content.
[00:07:04.000]
Where you're going to find academic journals. You're going to find magazines now. I introduced these top 3 at top, because we like to call them the Big 3.
[00:07:15.000]
Our general one file our public libraries utilize this resource a little bit more, but I did want to make you aware that you do have it. It's great for those popular magazines. More of that general reference type content. You're going to find in general one file where academic, one file academic. One file has the browse by discipline feature. It also has more academic journals. So it's looking more at those.
[00:07:40.000]
Journals that are available, and that's the type of content you'll find in academic one file.
[00:07:46.000]
Where Gale, one file news, is all sorts of news publications. Now, there's a little bit more periodical content in there besides just newspapers, but it's focused more on newspapers. And we're a global company.
[00:07:58.000]
So you will find publications from around the world. It's not just limited to the Us. In all of these one file resources. So keep that in mind. But we like to call these the Big 3 because they have the largest amount of content where we also have. You also have a huge one file collection, and these are subsets so meaning that diversity studies. Are you going to find.
[00:08:21.000]
Some of the, a lot of this content in academic one file.
[00:08:25.000]
And also general. One file. Chances are, yes, but you'll also find some unique content. And why we do this is because we want to provide you with more of those focused.
[00:08:36.000]
Resources on topics like diversity studies or.
[00:08:40.000]
For your future teachers that are in your at the academic level. You have educators complete for Spanish and Portuguese publication. Maybe you have world languages. And you want to pull these in. You have Informe Academico, and you have so many more. One file unique collections available. From the Washington State library, and we are going to touch into academic one file today.
[00:09:06.000]
In your health and medicine suite. These resources are great for health and wellness, and medical professionals or medical students.
[00:09:13.000]
And we do have health and wellness. Now health and wellness is great. If you have any.
[00:09:19.000]
I. We call this more of the consumer.
[00:09:23.000]
Resource for those at the Public Library. Patrons are utilizing this, but it's also great for any staff.
[00:09:31.000]
Counselors. Or maybe you have any therapists that are working with students, that health and wellness resources really great for them, because they're going to find great support, information.
[00:09:41.000]
Or for our junior colleges. Health and wellness is a really good resource there, too. When you get to those medical professionals, nursing students, medical students, maybe PA's that you have in your buildings. These resources here.
[00:09:56.000]
Gale health and medicine that's focused more for those folks. So this is like, I said, what to use one kind of talk that we're having now. But the one file. Health and medicine is great for those medical professionals, and.
[00:10:09.000]
Medical students.
[00:10:11.000]
And also medical researchers. Great resource for them, too.
[00:10:15.000]
Focusing more on nursing. You have nursing and Allied health.
[00:10:19.000]
Physical therapy of physical therapy and sports, medicine.
[00:10:22.000]
Psychology, you have one specifically for psychology. And again, these are just a few. There's even more available. And then, of course, academic. One file supports all this area when you're talking about health and medicine.
[00:10:36.000]
In our business suite. We have great resources for future entrepreneurs, our business courses small, even small businesses. You might have some students, I know one of my 3 kids has a small business that every summer he works for, and so he's always devouring anything that I can provide for him. And this is one of those cases where we have these 3 business resources available. But to support.
[00:11:01.000]
Those business courses, too. So you have Gale business insight business insights is going to be. And we are going to go into this one. Today you're going to find company overviews. You're going to find.
[00:11:14.000]
Great. If you're looking for swat analysis or financial information for certain companies, you're also going to find reports and industry specific news. You're going to be able to look at. It's not just us. It's also global. So the global market you can take a look at here using gale business insights.
[00:11:32.000]
And then Gale business entrepreneurship has industry information. But also you're going to find the complete set of the business plans handbook. All the volumes are available there digitally. And so you have those great business plans, and it takes you through step by step. So when you're starting out.
[00:11:49.000]
Looking or looking for a business or thinking about a business. Then you're moving into funding. We have information, including directories available. Maybe you're looking for funding angel funding, and you want information on it. This is a great resource for it. Then it takes you to managing your business, or, I should say, starting that business. Now you've got the ideas underway. Now you're going to start it, and so we have some great topic pages.
[00:12:12.000]
Available focusing on women owned companies.
[00:12:16.000]
So, looking at that type of content, then we move into managing the business. How do you manage this business now that you're here. What are some support you have available? So when you're talking to business students or future entrepreneurs, this is a great resource. That kind of takes them through that, step by step, process.
[00:12:33.000]
And then bringing it all together. Is your gale. One file business again, one file. So it's periodical content. But talking about the business, different industries within the business world. This is a great resource to access for that type of information.
[00:12:47.000]
Please let me know if you have any questions. That was a very what we're going to do now is 1st go into our support materials, and then we'll go into the individual resources.
[00:12:59.000]
So I usually don't start out that way. But I was thinking about it this morning, and I'm thinking about my higher Ed folks and those at the academic libraries. And we get a lot of questions. So I want to make sure that I answer those right off the bat.
[00:13:10.000]
So when I am on our the support site, and I already provided you with this link, I will provide it at the end. It'll also be in your follow up email. You'll get this link again and again and again. But it is like I said, a great one.
[00:13:25.000]
To bookmark. So.
[00:13:28.000]
If I'm looking for the Washington State Library, I'm just going to use their account today.
[00:13:32.000]
As you can see right from the homepage. I do have my upcoming webinars. Here's the one that we're in today. We have one more next week.
[00:13:40.000]
We had 2 earlier this week. I can go right to my resources, ebooks, training, and marketing materials. Why, I want to log in with my account is, let me click, proceed.
[00:13:50.000]
Because when I look at my resource it will have my location Id built in.
[00:13:57.000]
So now when I use these Urls.
[00:14:01.000]
I can track usage.
[00:14:04.000]
And you can see like I said, we have quite a few in that one file product family. I didn't pull them all out. We have quite a few different resources available.
[00:14:13.000]
So great to highlight. If you're using any lib guides which I'm going to share with you in a moment, we have created some for you.
[00:14:19.000]
They are great to pull into.
[00:14:22.000]
You have the ability to export all the links right here.
[00:14:25.000]
If you're looking for a certain product family like you just want.
[00:14:29.000]
The In contact suite.
[00:14:31.000]
You have college and global issues, you can do that. We have elementary middle school and high school also available from the Washington State library, or just looking for literature. You have Gale litfinders, you can quickly see. You can filter down to.
[00:14:47.000]
The next is your ebooks.
[00:14:51.000]
And I just want to touch into this real quick. These are the reason why I want to point this out is because if you need the mark records you're going to find them here.
[00:14:59.000]
So if you click into ebooks 1st again, login.
[00:15:02.000]
You go to ebooks. Mark records are here.
[00:15:05.000]
They're also our direct urls for each of your ebooks.
[00:15:09.000]
Under training materials. This is what I want to share with you.
[00:15:13.000]
You 1st land in the Washington State Library. These are all of these sessions that we've recorded.
[00:15:19.000]
Over the years, and the most recent ones are here too.
[00:15:22.000]
Or you can find training materials by product.
[00:15:26.000]
So if I open up by product and look at academic one file.
[00:15:31.000]
Right at the top I see the Lib guides that I have available.
[00:15:35.000]
And these are specific to our higher ed products.
[00:15:38.000]
You'll see that our academic team has created multiple guides. You're going to find professional development materials like a slide deck. All of our recorded webinars that are specific to either academic one file or our one file periodical family.
[00:15:53.000]
Resource, guides.
[00:15:56.000]
Tip sheets, tutorials, tutorials are great to link out, even including some of our tools like Get link and citation tool, and the highlights and notes.
[00:16:06.000]
Click into one of these live guides.
[00:16:08.000]
And share that with you. Let me scroll the way back up.
[00:16:12.000]
So if I'm looking at, let's go into nursing resources. Guide.
[00:16:17.000]
I'll click view. And here it takes me into that live guide over here. Best bet for nursing resources.
[00:16:25.000]
I can open that up.
[00:16:27.000]
Open up nursing and Allied health, and it gives me information on that resource.
[00:16:33.000]
There's some resources in these live guides. I will say these are created for all our customers. So like Gale, interactive human anatomy, that is not a resource that you have from the Washington State Library, but it is again. These live guides have been created for all customers, but you do have one file, nursing, health and wellness, one file, health and medicine.
[00:16:52.000]
You have all of these other resources available in this lib guide you.
[00:16:56.000]
Utilize, or you again build your own.
[00:17:02.000]
And then there's additional support here below.
[00:17:05.000]
As you can see, ebooks academic, one file you have that.
[00:17:10.000]
I go back. So I just wanted to point out that you do have those types of live guides available in a new tab.
[00:17:20.000]
So lib guides are at the top.
[00:17:23.000]
And you're going to find that type of information. Let me open business insights. Not everyone has a lib guide.
[00:17:31.000]
Like you do in academic one file again, this is very focused for higher. Ed, so you're going to find lib guides under this resource but business insights. You may not find lib guides on every single one, but you're going to find something else like here's.
[00:17:43.000]
A tip sheet for, and it's an instructional tool for utilizing this resource. And this is a faculty teaching guide.
[00:17:52.000]
So you'll find things like that, or you might find.
[00:17:57.000]
Tutorials specifically for higher Ed available.
[00:18:03.000]
So lots of great information. We if we have any activities available, you'll see them here, too.
[00:18:09.000]
But just wanted to point that out. So that's under training marketing.
[00:18:15.000]
Same idea. It's byproduct.
[00:18:18.000]
So we have the Washington State Library. We did create one document, but.
[00:18:22.000]
By product is where you'll want to go. So if you want to promote business entrepreneurship, you can see we have blog templates, press release, product description, social media, posts.
[00:18:31.000]
All ready to go for you.
[00:18:35.000]
And then always very important to our higher Ed folks.
[00:18:39.000]
Because we do. When you talk about discovery, you may have some questions when you're using your direct Urls, and we've linked out some, and these have come up specifically questions that we've received from the Washington State Library. So we've added those technical documents.
[00:18:54.000]
From folks other folks in your state. So we've added them here. So we have a lot of great tech documents to help you maximize your discoverability in Google Scholar, for example.
[00:19:06.000]
We have your Vpat information, and then the website will take you to the Washington State Library.
[00:19:12.000]
So that's your support site, your support materials. Now let's go into your products. Now, I am accessing your products through the gale page. We have Gale pages available, and these are complementary resource sites where all of your gale resources live. You can even add in resources from other vendors. It's great. I we have community colleges that'll use this a lot where.
[00:19:35.000]
They don't have their. They have one tech person, and they don't get a lot of opportunity to make changes or updates to their library website, which you might be nodding and like. Yep, that's me.
[00:19:46.000]
You have complete control over this, the link.
[00:19:50.000]
Will remain the same, even if you've done some customization. So keep that in mind. That's an option. And your customer success. Managers can help with that process.
[00:19:58.000]
So the 1st resource we are going to go into is we're going to end with Gale In Context: college. But we're going to start with Gale academic one file, because I'll touch into Gale In Context College a little later. I like to start with it. But this time I want to change it up a little bit and start with academic. One file.
[00:20:14.000]
Academic. One file, few tools I want to point out at the top. I have the ability to sign in with Google or Microsoft. I can also translate all of the navigation. I'm going to sign in with Google.
[00:20:26.000]
I'm on my computer. So it helps make it a little quicker. I can translate the navigation. So these tools here in my toolbar.
[00:20:35.000]
And I'm at 34 different languages.
[00:20:38.000]
Basic search, advanced search, very self explanatory. I do want to point out a few items under advanced search. As we work through the resource.
[00:20:46.000]
Browse by discipline, and I want to talk to you about browse by discipline as compared to doing a basic search, and then some consistency across all of our Gale resources that I think you're going to really love. If you're not already aware. We also have some search tool options here at the bottom topic, finder, subject, guide, search, publication search. So when you're talking about that higher Ed level.
[00:21:07.000]
Academic level. You have researchers.
[00:21:10.000]
Again, from 1st year, students to your faculty members where they are going to be utilizing these tools. And we have a lot of information, a lot of options to do some searching, a lot of research limits available under advanced search, or, again, looking for a certain subject or a certain publication.
[00:21:28.000]
Where topic finder is a visual representation of your search results. And it's interactive. Now, all of these, even though they're on the homepage, do live under advanced search, too.
[00:21:38.000]
So they're all found here in all of your gale products. You will find all of the search options available under advanced search.
[00:21:46.000]
So when I select that you can see here, it lands us right into advanced search, but I can quickly change it to subject, guide, search.
[00:21:54.000]
Publication, search or.
[00:21:56.000]
Topic, finder.
[00:21:59.000]
Go when I go. Want to go back to the homepage and any of your Gale resources. You just click into the banner here and it'll take me right back to that homepage.
[00:22:07.000]
Now browse by discipline. You can see some of the areas we've here. Now, this is.
[00:22:11.000]
For our general one file and academic one file. We've created this browse option and your other one file resources. You won't see the browse option you'll just have because they're already focused on specific content. So if you're like a diversity studies or computer science, for example, it's already focused on computer science. So the brows by discipline, because academic. One file covers many subjects.
[00:22:36.000]
That's why we we provided it, plus, I'm going to share with you. Let me show psychology. So let's say, I'm interested in psychology.
[00:22:44.000]
And specifically, memory.
[00:22:48.000]
You can see all of the different topic pages, and these are collections of information on that specific topic of memory. So now I'm going to.
[00:22:57.000]
Memory as it relates to psychology, where, if I were to just do a basic search.
[00:23:05.000]
And I did a search on memory, I would get different things. It wouldn't be directly related to psychology. It might be computer memory. So. And that's not what I'm interested in. I'm interested in psychology and memory in this way. So you can see how that browse by discipline.
[00:23:20.000]
Really helps your users.
[00:23:22.000]
Find that content quicker because our subject matter experts have already gone in and made those curated those collections for them. So it does make it a little bit easier, and you can see right away. Academic journals is here at the top. It's our 1st box that we're seeing. We can see in our.
[00:23:39.000]
Summary here that these are peer reviewed. They get a little peer reviewed Checkmark. If they've been peer reviewed, which you'll find a lot of that content here. If I only wanted peer reviewed journals I can use underneath my filter your results. I have that ability to select peer review journals.
[00:23:56.000]
If I need the document to contain images.
[00:23:58.000]
Here's my topic finder. Also, if I select topic finder from here as compared to the homepage or under advanced search.
[00:24:07.000]
Topic find this topic finder will only pull in these results from my memory. Topic page.
[00:24:14.000]
So great tool I can use if I like, that visual.
[00:24:17.000]
Option filtering my results. I have that ability to filter down by publication date.
[00:24:24.000]
By subject.
[00:24:26.000]
Document, type.
[00:24:28.000]
Some of these you can. You could see, you can not only search, but multi.
[00:24:33.000]
I have publication. So if there's certain publication titles that you're interested in, this is a great way to filter down just to those publication titles and for higher Ed and research that we get a lot of that specific information that's needed.
[00:24:47.000]
Sections. This applies to newspapers.
[00:24:50.000]
Lexile measure not really used that much at the higher level. But we have high school students that will use this resource for ap accelerated programs.
[00:25:00.000]
So that's why we included measure. And then the ability to search within a really quick way to drill down and find content very quickly, and any filters I choose here.
[00:25:12.000]
Will be applied to all of my content at one time. So let's say I do want everything just from the past year.
[00:25:20.000]
It filters that down very quickly.
[00:25:22.000]
And I can use my get link tool, and it provides a persistent URL back to this exact spot.
[00:25:33.000]
I can remove that filter.
[00:25:35.000]
Again get link lives in my contextual toolbar.
[00:25:38.000]
It's 1 of our tools that provides a persistent URL back to this specific content. So even if I filtered it down, you can see that how easy it is to get folks back to that spot.
[00:25:48.000]
Another thing I want to share with you in this resource before we go into the next one is if I've done a basic search. So I'm going to go back to the homepage. I don't have to. But I could do. I could do that basic search from any spot within this resource.
[00:26:02.000]
But let's say I'm interested in.
[00:26:09.000]
Artificial intelligence I'm going to use search.
[00:26:14.000]
And the reason why I'm showing you this is because.
[00:26:18.000]
In our, and you could see a lot of content came back. So this at this point.
[00:26:23.000]
Filtering my results is going to be a helpful tool. I did not browse by discipline. I just did a basic search. So you can see the difference between the 2.
[00:26:31.000]
But what I wanted to point out is.
[00:26:34.000]
Search alert. So when you've done a basic search, you can.
[00:26:39.000]
Create a search alert. So anytime any new information is added, you can have it sent to you via email.
[00:26:45.000]
And you can choose your format or HTML.
[00:26:48.000]
How often you would like it sent, or.
[00:26:51.000]
You can use the Rss. Feed and put it right, and that's what I do. I don't know if you can see this right here.
[00:26:57.000]
This is a search assist I have, with the election coming up, and I haven't read it in a hot second, as you can see, but new information is being added to these resources every day throughout the day we have the lowest embargo rate on the market. So you, we have a lot of content for our periodical publications that are added all day throughout the day. So my, especially with the elections coming up.
[00:27:19.000]
I have a lot that I need to catch up on, and I did just look at it the other day. So a lot of new content was obviously added, based on my.
[00:27:27.000]
Subject that I was searching for. So you have search alert again, is right here.
[00:27:33.000]
Alright. So now that we've talked about this resource, let me jump into another one and we're I'm going to keep building your knowledge.
[00:27:41.000]
I'm trying to think. Oh, there's 1 other thing before I leave this one that's unique to the one file products.
[00:27:46.000]
And that is under our publication search.
[00:27:51.000]
You have the ability, and I'm just going to use the let's just use the Washington Post. Keep it simple.
[00:28:03.000]
So the Washington Post.
[00:28:05.000]
When I select it.
[00:28:08.000]
I have the ability to create a journal alert.
[00:28:12.000]
So just like our search, alert, you can create. And this is.
[00:28:16.000]
For your Gale resources. This is unique to your one file resources.
[00:28:20.000]
And the great thing is with these alerts again, you can pick HTML or plain text, but when you're in any of your gale resources. You'll notice that the content.
[00:28:32.000]
Is always in an HTML format.
[00:28:36.000]
But if you need a Pdf.
[00:28:38.000]
You have the ability to download. So on every single document that you find within this resource in any of your Gale resources.
[00:28:45.000]
You'll always see the HTML form.
[00:28:48.000]
And also have that Pdf option.
[00:28:51.000]
So. Consistency is very important to us at Gale, and we want our users to feel that when they go into any of these resources. They're getting the same experience and finding exactly what they need in the format that they need. It.
[00:29:05.000]
Alright! Let's go into.
[00:29:07.000]
Go back to my. I spent a lot of time in academic one file, so let me jump into a few others.
[00:29:14.000]
going to touch into business insights.
[00:29:18.000]
Few things I want to point out. Majority of the stuff that I'm going to share with you is on the homepage again. Basic and advanced search.
[00:29:24.000]
All of the tools are the same. Here's my Google, now a little different here in my contextual toolbar, because this is unique to this resource. I have the ability to compare items.
[00:29:34.000]
So comparing, I can compare companies, countries, and territories. I have the option to chart or table.
[00:29:41.000]
So right from that homepage I can use that compare Feature.
[00:29:45.000]
I can browse through content.
[00:29:49.000]
I have search history, get link and highlights and notes. These are always these 3 are always here on the homepage. Get link and highlights are always on every.
[00:29:56.000]
Every page. You'll see that option like I shared with you. You can grab a link back to even filtered content.
[00:30:03.000]
Right away at the top. You see, most search companies, and these companies have company profiles.
[00:30:10.000]
Below that we have top business. Here's our most used.
[00:30:16.000]
Research topics. Most used topics are here.
[00:30:20.000]
And then industries. Here's the most searched industries that we highlight, but you can browse all. There's over a thousand.
[00:30:28.000]
And then understanding major markets. Here's the most searched countries and territories, but I can browse all the countries and territories.
[00:30:37.000]
So let's go back up to the top, and I love to choose Amazon.
[00:30:43.000]
When we access the company profile, you can see all of the information on the company here at the top. Some of this information is hyperlinked out.
[00:30:52.000]
We have the Swat analysis explanation here. And then here's where I can read that full swot analysis.
[00:31:01.000]
Here you can see the full swot analysis.
[00:31:05.000]
And I can download this or print it off.
[00:31:09.000]
It'll give me that nice Pdf.
[00:31:13.000]
Of course, I have a company overview. I have some in-depth articles or company details specific below that. I have all of my financial performance, information, balance sheet, cash, flow income my ratios, my investment report, financial performance over time.
[00:31:31.000]
I can use the compare tool here.
[00:31:34.000]
If I select any of these like, maybe I'm interested in the full balance sheet.
[00:31:39.000]
I don't have to go back to that company profile page to access those other items. The income statement, cash flow ratios, investment reports. There's sec filings.
[00:31:49.000]
You're going to see here for Amazon.
[00:31:51.000]
I have some filter options, and then it takes you right into that balance sheet.
[00:31:57.000]
Jump to cash, flow statement.
[00:32:00.000]
And it loads that information.
[00:32:03.000]
I want to go back to the company profile. That option is here.
[00:32:10.000]
Few other things I want to point out. It's going to load this trying to load that graph. It takes a little bit. There.
[00:32:15.000]
Any competitors. I can compare companies.
[00:32:18.000]
Industry, specific information. I can browse all industries, and then below that, I go into all of my company specific articles. I can search within my results.
[00:32:28.000]
But this takes me to.
[00:32:30.000]
Information on Amazon. You can see you're going to find some market research reports.
[00:32:35.000]
Train, trade, journal, articles.
[00:32:37.000]
That we've pulled out market share rankings.
[00:32:41.000]
And rankings. You can find that in case studies so lots of great company articles that are available.
[00:32:47.000]
If I select an industry.
[00:32:50.000]
Let's go into pet supplies.
[00:32:53.000]
Not only does it give me information on the industry, profile.
[00:32:57.000]
But over here to the right I can see top companies by revenue.
[00:33:01.000]
Maybe I'm interested in. Okay, what's happening in Japan. We've hyperlinked out even the country and territory. So even from this screen, where I'm in a specific industry. I can go to.
[00:33:14.000]
Japan and find information on that territory.
[00:33:19.000]
Top companies, in Japan.
[00:33:21.000]
So you can see where you get that global. You can go into that global viewpoint, Eric, global information on that company.
[00:33:27.000]
So I don't have to always access it from the homepage, but.
[00:33:31.000]
It is always there at the bottom.
[00:33:35.000]
So that's all I did is I went into an industry.
[00:33:39.000]
And then clicked into.
[00:33:41.000]
One of the top companies in that industry.
[00:33:44.000]
And found out more global information about that company.
[00:33:47.000]
So that scale business insights.
[00:33:49.000]
Let's jump into another resource.
[00:33:52.000]
And this time I want to touch into.
[00:33:56.000]
Let's go into Gale In. Context, college.
[00:34:03.000]
There we go!
[00:34:05.000]
Looks like our. It's in in the in contact suite.
[00:34:10.000]
Our in contact suite of resources which you're going to find rich multimedia organized with these topic categories with topic pages.
[00:34:19.000]
It's has topics of interest scrolling at the top of the page again.
[00:34:23.000]
Students are working with this in the elementary middle school and high school level. So when they get to college, this is a really good one to get your 1st and second year students started in because they're familiar with the in context resources.
[00:34:38.000]
But the topics. The information is going to be different, because it's geared towards college.
[00:34:43.000]
So you're going to find information, let's say literature and arts. And maybe I'm specifically interested in Frankenstein. I know my daughter as a freshman. This was one of the books that they.
[00:34:53.000]
That they read. It was part of her lit class, even though she was a science major. That is a class. She had to take her 1st couple years. So.
[00:35:00.000]
Frankenstein, which is a favorite of mine to even pull up the information. But you can see it's organized with an image and essay overview. This one has some quick facts. You can see major characters.
[00:35:11.000]
In the center of the page. We have all this information, all these different content types available.
[00:35:17.000]
In our in contact resources, we have featured content.
[00:35:20.000]
Or featured issues. If you're in global issues. And this is hand selected information by our subject matter. Specialists.
[00:35:29.000]
When I do get to the document level.
[00:35:33.000]
I have great tools to support accessibility, to translate into over 57 languages, to increase or decrease the font size.
[00:35:41.000]
To change the display and customize this to suit my needs by changing the color.
[00:35:47.000]
The font line, letter, and wordpacing, and this will stick with me throughout my session. Go to another article. It's already set up. I just set it up on the 1st one.
[00:36:00.000]
And then it sticks with me a closeout of my session, and it will.
[00:36:04.000]
Clear that information.
[00:36:06.000]
To go back to default. I just open that back up.
[00:36:09.000]
And choose back to default settings.
[00:36:12.000]
I also have the ability to listen to the text being read aloud.
[00:36:17.000]
And I have some tools here under the more button.
[00:36:20.000]
Where I can enlarge that text. Listen to it as an Mp. 3. I have some setting options available.
[00:36:26.000]
Frankenstein, Symbol.
[00:36:29.000]
I see Frankenstein as an intensely sane person.
[00:36:30.000]
Let me. So when I turn on, let me pause that when I turn on the enhanced.
[00:36:36.000]
Sorry in large text. It used to be called enhanced text visibility, and I.
[00:36:40.000]
Keep trying to blend the 2. So in large text it enlarges the text at the bottom of the page, it pulls it out.
[00:36:46.000]
And I can increase that font size. So really, again, supporting the varying needs of your users.
[00:36:55.000]
And this is another feature that will stick with me throughout my session.
[00:37:01.000]
I close that box? Actually let me remove this. So it.
[00:37:04.000]
Is it, cookie down there.
[00:37:06.000]
There we go. I want to send this article. I can quickly send it to Google, download or print. I also have this explore panel. I had it in.
[00:37:16.000]
With my one file resources, too. I'm not sure if you noticed it there. But this explore panel provides you with supplemental information.
[00:37:24.000]
Similar to the article you're on.
[00:37:27.000]
You'll find additional content.
[00:37:31.000]
We also have the citations attached. So this one.
[00:37:36.000]
Maybe this is, of course, almost 4,000 words. Let me go back.
[00:37:40.000]
I always choose the really long ones, for whatever reason.
[00:37:45.000]
2. It's the topic. Here's 1. We'll go into horror.
[00:37:49.000]
So what I want to share with you is at the bottom. Some of these will have critical thinking questions built in.
[00:37:56.000]
I enlarge the text. That's why it's so large on the page. But let me show you at the bottom the citation is attached.
[00:38:02.000]
We can change that format.
[00:38:04.000]
We can choose where we'd like to export it to, or simply copy and paste. But if I want to send this to.
[00:38:11.000]
Say my Google drive, or onedrive.
[00:38:14.000]
And I need Apa format. I can scroll down to the bottom, select Apa.
[00:38:19.000]
And then when I send it.
[00:38:22.000]
The document will turn into either a Google Doc or a Microsoft word, Doc, depending on where I send it.
[00:38:30.000]
Or email, but.
[00:38:32.000]
It will, the citation will be attached, and it'll be in the correct format.
[00:38:37.000]
I also have the ability again to download this, as a Pdf. Citation will be attached in the format I chose.
[00:38:43.000]
Or print it off.
[00:38:49.000]
The citation tool is also here at the top.
[00:38:52.000]
And that will provide me with just the citation.
[00:38:55.000]
So I have all those options available and the options to export.
[00:39:03.000]
The last feature I want to share with you. Let me go back out.
[00:39:06.000]
Is our highlights and notes. Feature.
[00:39:09.000]
Within this resource.
[00:39:14.000]
Go into a biography.
[00:39:20.000]
This is one of my favorite publishers. I'll say I'll let you. Discover.
[00:39:25.000]
Or exploring, discovering and exploring great publishers they have. You're going to find great content like for poetry. You'll find.
[00:39:34.000]
Poems that are actually read aloud by either the author or we also have drama department from a local university.
[00:39:43.000]
That performed the play, or the readings of these poems, so.
[00:39:49.000]
Again discovering and exploring poetry, exploring short stories or Shakespeare, or they're really great. And you'll find them in the in context, resources.
[00:40:01.000]
So just one of those hidden gems.
[00:40:04.000]
Highlights and notes. I can click and chunk, click and drag over a chunk of text.
[00:40:09.000]
Choose my color, but this box will pop up.
[00:40:14.000]
Add whatever notes I want. There.
[00:40:16.000]
Save that information. Here's some critical thinking questions interesting. It's not showing this.
[00:40:23.000]
Nope, okay? So it looks like, so we, I see critical thinking questions attached to.
[00:40:30.000]
Our documents because we publish our own content. But we also work with great publishers, and it looks like discovering authors. Has these also.
[00:40:38.000]
So another. This is question one.
[00:40:43.000]
Maybe I scroll down here, and here is the.
[00:40:47.000]
Answer to question one. I want to use the same color.
[00:40:50.000]
And I maybe want to leave a summary of my thoughts.
[00:40:54.000]
Here.
[00:40:56.000]
You could see the define button, is there.
[00:40:58.000]
So if there's a term I'm struggling with.
[00:41:01.000]
I can click to find.
[00:41:03.000]
And it pulls that information from the Web's Dictionary.
[00:41:06.000]
Just like an ereader.
[00:41:08.000]
I can now best practice. Use my contextual toolbar here that floats down the page.
[00:41:14.000]
And send this. I'm going to send it to Google drive onedrive email.
[00:41:18.000]
I can also download or print, because I want to keep.
[00:41:21.000]
This entire document, and I've already marked it up.
[00:41:25.000]
And I've even added notes.
[00:41:27.000]
When I send it. What happens is.
[00:41:30.000]
Below my citation at the bottom.
[00:41:33.000]
These chunks of text that I've highlighted will land there with any notes I've taken.
[00:41:38.000]
So it turns it again into a Google Doc. But I have not only the marked up sections within the document itself, but then below, I have.
[00:41:46.000]
What I've any notes I've taken. And again, those 2 pieces of text that are 3 in this case.
[00:41:52.000]
But my highlights and notes is also being built out.
[00:41:58.000]
When I'm on a document that I've done some highlighting on again. Best practice. Do something with it first, st so you don't.
[00:42:04.000]
Lose this information. Your users will not create accounts on their Gale resources. They will need to utilize those cloud sources or workflow tools that we have by sending, downloading or printing.
[00:42:17.000]
So view all highlights and notes.
[00:42:19.000]
Here are my digital notes. I can edit my notes if I need to.
[00:42:25.000]
Save that information.
[00:42:27.000]
I can choose the format of my bibliography.
[00:42:30.000]
I can create a legend.
[00:42:33.000]
Over here this label I can label my colors. Maybe this is a fact.
[00:42:38.000]
I want to use. And this is a.
[00:42:40.000]
Quote.
[00:42:43.000]
Especially great when students are working together. Or if you're doing any type of check-in with students, your faculty members, and especially those 1st and second year students.
[00:42:54.000]
They might need a little bit more guidance when they're 1st working on their papers.
[00:42:58.000]
And this could be a helpful tool because they can send it to their Google drive onedrive email.
[00:43:05.000]
Download or print, send it to their Google drive. They can share it with their professors.
[00:43:10.000]
Professors can check in. Maybe it's part of their process, and a way for them to get some points.
[00:43:15.000]
Outside of the midterm and the final right.
[00:43:18.000]
You the bibliography be attached. So if I'm in multiple articles, imagine that here's my work cited.
[00:43:26.000]
I have just one I was in, but if I were in multiple articles I can use the highlights and notes feature again. Send that information to my Google driver, Microsoft, onedrive.
[00:43:38.000]
And then my citation tool will have all of those citations available for all of the resources that I did. Any type of highlighting.
[00:43:46.000]
That I'm plan to use in my project or my paper.
[00:43:50.000]
And I can change that format.
[00:43:53.000]
Export it wherever I need to. Maybe I'm sending it to ref works.
[00:43:57.000]
And I have that my work cited is done. My bibliography is done. It will also be attached here, so it'll land wherever you choose to send it.
[00:44:06.000]
So highlights and notes can be used in a variety of different ways, great for annotating great for talking about, 2 sides like global issues. And you're looking at pro con.
[00:44:15.000]
Of a topic. It's great. First, st for information like that. Looking at that global viewpoint.
[00:44:21.000]
Maybe you're doing some. You need highlights and notes. You're looking at those company profiles that we went over. It's a great tool to use there. So you'll find again that same tool and feature across all of your gale resources.
[00:44:33.000]
The last area I want to talk to you about is topic one of our search options. I just want to model it for you.
[00:44:40.000]
I'm going to do a quick search, so I might as well just use.
[00:44:43.000]
Do global warming, climate change.
[00:44:47.000]
Please let me know if you have any questions.
[00:44:51.000]
It brings back a visual representation of your search results. There's 2 options we have tiles or.
[00:44:58.000]
The wheel.
[00:45:00.000]
It's purely preference. And this is looking at when I kick off my search from this point it is pulling in all this information into these tiles that I have available on global warming and climate change. It looks at the 100 words.
[00:45:15.000]
And it's pulling in those top results so great for those that.
[00:45:20.000]
Keyword search. And again, it's interactive. So our students always love to use this tool.
[00:45:27.000]
You can see, I can just quickly zoom in, and it takes me to 5 different documents, articles.
[00:45:33.000]
Whatever we have available on this topic.
[00:45:38.000]
I can reset that. And remember, I shared with you from one of the topic pages. It lives.
[00:45:45.000]
Below that filter your results.
[00:45:48.000]
Let's go into. I have a dream.
[00:45:52.000]
When I'm on a content type.
[00:45:54.000]
Like, let's go into reference real quick.
[00:45:58.000]
It also lives here.
[00:46:00.000]
And here in the toolbar.
[00:46:02.000]
So in your one file resources, you'll find it here, and this, if I use it now, it's only going to pull.
[00:46:08.000]
Information from my. I have a dream topic, page.
[00:46:12.000]
Where, when I start my search.
[00:46:14.000]
Within topic finder. It's going to pull in everything from everywhere.
[00:46:17.000]
So if I prefer that topic finder feature even from a topic page, I have that option available.
[00:46:24.000]
Or again, my search results. If I'm in.
[00:46:26.000]
One file, but this is what it'll look like. So.
[00:46:29.000]
Quite a difference.
[00:46:32.000]
In my results. A little bit more drilled down.
[00:46:37.000]
Okay. Alright!
[00:46:40.000]
We're right. At the end of our time.
[00:46:42.000]
So let me go back to our Powerpoint.
[00:46:47.000]
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
[00:46:54.000]
Gale support we talked about. So we don't need to enter this talk about this again, because we covered it quite extensively at the beginning, because again, I wanted to get in front of a lot of those questions that I received from our higher Ed folks. Few things I pulled out again. There's a lib guide here is that I mentioned this during the when I was talking about the materials. But this is that instructors guide for using gale business insights.
[00:47:18.000]
And then you are going to find short video tutorials. Here's 1 on getting started with gale databases specifically for our higher Ed users.
[00:47:26.000]
And then also great marketing materials you'll find available on the Gale support site.
[00:47:35.000]
And that wraps our session again. My name is Tammi. If you have any questions, please feel free to let me know your Gale customer success. Managers are your one on one support.
