Duration: 30 Minutes
[00:00:07.400]
thank you again everyone for being on the line
[00:00:09.448]
today. We're talking about gale
[00:00:11.500]
literature today. My name is
[00:00:13.560]
Amber Winters and I am your gale training
[00:00:15.618]
consultant
[00:00:17.609]
So I have a quick agenda here for everyone. So first
[00:00:19.949]
I'm gonna talk a little bit about what
[00:00:21.989]
gale literature is to be more specific.
[00:00:24.109]
Today. We're talking about the cross
[00:00:26.318]
search platform as opposed to one specific
[00:00:28.728]
resource. So we'll talk about that
[00:00:30.768]
today. We'll spend the majority of the time actually
[00:00:33.139]
walking through the resource though. So you can get a feel
[00:00:35.609]
of some of the different work flows.
[00:00:38.259]
that your users are going to be experiencing
[00:00:41.859]
and I will save time at the very end for any questions
[00:00:44.219]
that you may have and I do have some closing
[00:00:46.347]
information for you as well. if you do
[00:00:48.429]
have questions before the end of the session,
[00:00:50.560]
feel free to go ahead and ask those in the Q.
[00:00:52.700]
And A. And I should be able to keep up with that
[00:00:54.789]
as we're moving along today. If
[00:00:57.097]
it does get a little bit jammed up in the Q. And A. You
[00:00:59.130]
notice your question hasn't been answered?
[00:01:01.139]
Don't worry about it, it will be answered
[00:01:03.609]
at the very latest at the end of the session
[00:01:05.709]
today, So
[00:01:08.620]
let's go ahead and get started talking about
[00:01:10.789]
gale literature again, this is the cross search
[00:01:13.129]
platform that we're talking about today.
[00:01:15.307]
before we get started, if you're looking for
[00:01:17.408]
a webinar that's specifically about one
[00:01:19.557]
of the different resources, we do already
[00:01:21.799]
have those pre created
[00:01:23.837]
on the support site for you to take a look
[00:01:25.930]
at you get the support site information at the very
[00:01:28.150]
end of this session. But again today we're talking
[00:01:30.480]
about our cross search platform and this is going
[00:01:32.579]
to cross cross search
[00:01:34.829]
through all of the gale literature resources.
[00:01:37.128]
You here, see here on the screen now
[00:01:39.408]
you may or may not have access to all of these,
[00:01:41.769]
you're
[00:01:42.989]
Your institution could certainly vary. You may
[00:01:45.079]
have access to maybe two
[00:01:47.120]
or three, Maybe you have three or four, maybe you do have
[00:01:49.229]
all of them. But all of these will be cross
[00:01:51.277]
search on the gale literature. Cross search
[00:01:53.539]
platform and I will note here
[00:01:55.759]
that the platform is only going to search through
[00:01:57.848]
the resources you currently currently have access
[00:01:59.894]
to. So you don't need to worry about your patrons
[00:02:02.284]
or your students. searching
[00:02:04.474]
and then maybe hitting a wall because we found something
[00:02:06.823]
in, let's say they alerted her lip finder
[00:02:09.054]
and you don't have access to it. It's only going
[00:02:11.242]
to search through the resources that you currently
[00:02:13.335]
have access to.
[00:02:16.527]
and a couple of key features of the platform
[00:02:18.628]
before we just dive right in the first I want to
[00:02:20.710]
mention are our person and our work searches.
[00:02:23.718]
these are really helpful to narrow down contents
[00:02:26.188]
because scale literature. Again, you saw how many
[00:02:28.300]
resources it's searching through all at once
[00:02:30.758]
is going to pull back a huge amount of content.
[00:02:33.610]
So if your users are going in, Oftentimes
[00:02:36.204]
it's better to have something specific in mind
[00:02:38.274]
that they want to search for that way.
[00:02:40.365]
They're not in inundated with a
[00:02:42.375]
huge amount of results. So the person in
[00:02:44.402]
work search is a really nice way to do that
[00:02:46.902]
if they have a specific individual or work
[00:02:49.133]
in mind that they can search just for that
[00:02:51.425]
and really narrow down what they're looking for
[00:02:54.649]
in addition to that we include related resources
[00:02:57.277]
on the the home page of gale literature.
[00:02:59.598]
So we'll take a look at that and that's going
[00:03:01.729]
to give related resources that
[00:03:03.758]
your institution currently has access
[00:03:05.777]
to. So it's going to be resources that aren't
[00:03:08.080]
searched within gale literature but
[00:03:10.188]
that might be helpful or might be supplemental for
[00:03:12.199]
your users. So they'll see that here
[00:03:14.300]
on this platform as well.
[00:03:16.889]
And finally a new feature that we've just
[00:03:19.110]
added are some really great topic pages.
[00:03:21.307]
So again, these are helping your users filter
[00:03:23.527]
down to content they're looking for as
[00:03:26.288]
simply as possible because again, this
[00:03:28.318]
is a huge cross search. They're going to pull
[00:03:30.419]
a lot of content so we have these nice
[00:03:32.598]
topic pages that are going to curate results
[00:03:35.199]
related to some of the most search,
[00:03:37.288]
some of the most used topics
[00:03:39.389]
that are currently in research, both
[00:03:41.550]
for the secondary level students
[00:03:43.990]
as well as
[00:03:45.270]
excuse me, post secondary
[00:03:47.770]
and your kind of general researchers that you're going to find
[00:03:49.889]
maybe in a public library setting.
[00:03:52.538]
So we do have those topic pages prec
[00:03:54.579]
created where we organize all of our results
[00:03:56.699]
nice and easily so users can access
[00:03:59.098]
that really. Similarly,
[00:04:02.288]
now. I just want to start to click through this resource
[00:04:04.568]
here. I think we don't need to spend too much time talking
[00:04:06.848]
about it while I'm switching over
[00:04:08.929]
to my other screen. Do we have any questions?
[00:04:11.378]
I haven't seen any pop into the Q and A. But
[00:04:13.628]
I do want to make sure I hit those.
[00:04:17.987]
Ok, I don't see any, so give me one
[00:04:20.160]
quick second here. I got logged
[00:04:22.338]
out of my instant. Let me sign back in.
[00:04:24.500]
There we go.
[00:04:26.298]
So this is the gale literature home page and
[00:04:28.358]
I want to go over kind of the layout of
[00:04:30.389]
the land a little bit before I really dig in. So
[00:04:32.869]
we do of course have our basic
[00:04:35.139]
and advanced searches up here in the
[00:04:37.177]
the banner up top here but down
[00:04:39.209]
underneath we have some other really nice goodies
[00:04:41.369]
that are found on this page here. So we'll talk
[00:04:43.600]
about our toolbar in one second.
[00:04:45.619]
But underneath that
[00:04:46.980]
it's giving you just a little bit about what this resource
[00:04:49.409]
is, it will certainly be helpful
[00:04:51.519]
for your users so they understand exactly
[00:04:54.139]
what they're alert looking through
[00:04:57.269]
and then down underneath. Again, as I mentioned,
[00:04:59.409]
you have access to this nice
[00:05:01.528]
related from gale feature
[00:05:03.927]
so yours will most likely look different than
[00:05:06.028]
mine. This is only showing what your institution
[00:05:08.629]
has access to. So one
[00:05:11.009]
great feature, I like to point out gale book and books
[00:05:13.379]
and authors is not cross searched.
[00:05:15.713]
through good literature, but it's oftentimes handy
[00:05:18.204]
as your users are starting to look for different books
[00:05:20.454]
to read. So we do include that here under
[00:05:22.834]
the related literature. Resources, you'll
[00:05:24.884]
see often times quite a few different
[00:05:26.975]
archives and things are found here as well. So if
[00:05:29.035]
you do have access to those we
[00:05:31.285]
may include them here at the bottom. Your users will be able
[00:05:33.375]
to see that
[00:05:34.959]
They can click into any of these and it's
[00:05:37.048]
going to pull them forward into that resource
[00:05:39.509]
so they can kind of move their research forward.
[00:05:41.909]
They won't need to authenticate into that resource
[00:05:44.209]
because they're already signed in with
[00:05:46.558]
Gil literature. So it'll automatically log
[00:05:48.730]
them into whatever resource they clicked
[00:05:50.959]
into here
[00:05:53.769]
now scrolling back up, I want to go into
[00:05:55.829]
these tools we have in this toolbar here because
[00:05:58.009]
even without running our basic search,
[00:06:00.389]
we've got some really powerful tools right here that
[00:06:02.420]
are going to help us out. So the first one is this
[00:06:04.649]
what's inside button with this little
[00:06:06.699]
box icon?
[00:06:08.129]
And this is going to show me what exactly is
[00:06:10.278]
being searched within gil literature.
[00:06:12.829]
So you notice my list is a little bit smaller
[00:06:15.269]
than what I showed you on my slides because this is
[00:06:17.338]
all my instance has access to
[00:06:20.778]
but I can actually click on one of these.
[00:06:23.559]
and I can search within this resource. So even
[00:06:25.778]
though I'm on gay literature which is our cross search
[00:06:27.980]
platform, if I decided I really
[00:06:30.209]
just wanted to take a look at what we have available
[00:06:32.619]
within gale Literature Resource Center,
[00:06:35.009]
I can click on that and search and
[00:06:37.100]
it's just going to pull forward content from that resource.
[00:06:39.858]
So if they did click into gale literature but
[00:06:41.959]
they are actually looking for information just
[00:06:44.069]
from one resource they
[00:06:46.100]
can do that right here on this platform. Of course they can
[00:06:48.420]
certainly just sign directly into
[00:06:50.439]
gay literature Resource center.
[00:06:52.298]
but they can do it this way if they already clicked
[00:06:54.509]
into gale literature and don't want to kind of take
[00:06:56.579]
that step back, they can click into the what's
[00:06:58.699]
inside and run their search for through
[00:07:01.069]
one specific resource here.
[00:07:04.470]
Now I'm going to jump back to the home page just
[00:07:06.619]
so we kind of have one landing spot as
[00:07:08.759]
we go through today. So I just clicked
[00:07:10.850]
on my banner up top and it's pulled me back
[00:07:12.927]
forward here
[00:07:14.309]
So next to my what's inside button,
[00:07:16.350]
I have a browse topics option. And this
[00:07:18.420]
is where those topic pages I mentioned are
[00:07:20.427]
going to be found.
[00:07:22.048]
and this is a new feature that we've just added.
[00:07:24.309]
Again, just another layer of organization
[00:07:26.329]
for your users.
[00:07:27.737]
So they can click into that browse topics
[00:07:29.949]
and they're pulled forward to the screen. That's showing all
[00:07:31.987]
of the different topic pages we have
[00:07:34.290]
created here on this platform.
[00:07:36.778]
So you'll see they have the option to filter their topics
[00:07:38.889]
here. We have them all
[00:07:40.939]
listed down underneath and I can click into any
[00:07:43.028]
of these topics
[00:07:45.350]
on the left hand side. We also have the different
[00:07:47.689]
topic categories that we can click into.
[00:07:50.619]
I could choose to narrow down what I'm looking at
[00:07:52.730]
with this drop down here. So it defaults
[00:07:54.909]
to showing topics which is going to be all of our topics.
[00:07:58.159]
But I can change it to just showing works
[00:08:00.379]
or I can change it to showing authors
[00:08:03.170]
but we'll leave it as topics today.
[00:08:06.399]
And let's take a look over our left hand side
[00:08:08.459]
here. So let's say I really want to narrow it down specifically
[00:08:10.798]
to cultural identity. Maybe I'm doing
[00:08:13.028]
a research project on that or something
[00:08:15.230]
similar to that. You'll see when I click now
[00:08:17.427]
into just cultural identity. It's
[00:08:19.480]
pulling up all of the topic pages we
[00:08:21.509]
have created relating to
[00:08:23.629]
that topic. Now I do want to mention.
[00:08:25.970]
These are not all of the topics we
[00:08:28.009]
have within our resources about
[00:08:30.069]
cultural identity. These are some of
[00:08:32.090]
the top searched in the tap used
[00:08:34.200]
topics. So we've created this information
[00:08:36.710]
to help individuals who may be starting
[00:08:39.119]
to kind of take a look at, Excuse me,
[00:08:42.158]
some of the the most popular
[00:08:44.649]
topics we've pulled that forward, so I can
[00:08:46.690]
click into any of these let's
[00:08:48.769]
say, brazil, Brazilian literature
[00:08:51.057]
today, when I do that.
[00:08:53.109]
This is our topic page here. So at the top
[00:08:55.739]
I have an overview about my topic
[00:08:58.960]
down underneath?
[00:09:00.489]
I have all of my related results. So
[00:09:02.580]
instead of seeing just the basic search results
[00:09:04.820]
page,
[00:09:06.009]
I see all of this nice and organized. I see
[00:09:08.200]
I have a lot of biographies related to this
[00:09:10.259]
topic, some news reports, a
[00:09:12.269]
lot of primary sources and literary
[00:09:14.469]
works. You're going to see a lot of literary
[00:09:16.879]
works if you have access to Gale
[00:09:19.048]
literature lip finder, it's going to have a lot
[00:09:21.139]
of full texts. So again, your
[00:09:23.239]
results are most likely going to be different than mine
[00:09:25.450]
based on what resources you have access
[00:09:27.570]
to. But you'll start to see all of this content
[00:09:30.080]
and as I scroll down,
[00:09:31.489]
you'll see. I've got these different content buckets
[00:09:33.580]
that I've really completely organized my
[00:09:35.677]
results here. So I'll be able to scroll through
[00:09:37.950]
find exactly what I'm looking for
[00:09:40.899]
and then at the very bottom of our topic pages, we
[00:09:43.019]
do include a related topics section
[00:09:45.177]
here. So if I want to move forward. just
[00:09:47.580]
strictly using my topic pages, I don't even
[00:09:49.729]
want to run a search. Maybe I just want to click through that
[00:09:51.788]
way. I can do that by using these related
[00:09:54.080]
topics down below.
[00:09:59.019]
Now, are there any questions about these
[00:10:01.099]
topic pages, how they're formatted? Anything
[00:10:03.389]
like that
[00:10:06.739]
Ok, No questions. So we'll go ahead and keep
[00:10:08.759]
going again. I'm going to bounce
[00:10:10.840]
back to the home page as we kind of click
[00:10:13.019]
through these different features just so we have
[00:10:15.099]
one landing point. So next to our
[00:10:17.129]
browse topics, we have our person
[00:10:19.219]
search and our work search.
[00:10:21.399]
They both have their own button. They're also found under
[00:10:23.719]
the advanced search option, but
[00:10:25.739]
we have pulled them forward here just because they are
[00:10:27.840]
so powerful and they are used
[00:10:29.859]
fairly frequently. We want to make sure they're
[00:10:31.879]
clear and easy to find.
[00:10:34.778]
So I wanna click into person search today
[00:10:37.099]
just so we can take a quick look here.
[00:10:39.288]
And this this feature is really
[00:10:41.408]
handy if your your
[00:10:43.570]
users has someone that's specific in
[00:10:45.609]
mind. Of course they'll be able to just run for that
[00:10:47.750]
run a search for that person. But
[00:10:50.019]
it's also really nice if they're maybe looking for
[00:10:52.038]
a specific category of individual
[00:10:54.798]
maybe there um
[00:10:57.190]
doing a project on, let's say women
[00:10:59.369]
authors or maybe hispanic women authors
[00:11:01.590]
or african american
[00:11:03.807]
authors or whomever. they
[00:11:06.019]
can narrow that down here underneath using these search
[00:11:08.359]
limiters. So I can click in
[00:11:10.369]
maybe again, I do want to click into female.
[00:11:14.009]
maybe I want to change my ethnicity here.
[00:11:16.330]
See I can scroll down. So let's say hispanic american.
[00:11:18.830]
So we're running a project on hispanic
[00:11:21.330]
american. Female authors.
[00:11:23.349]
So I'm going to put that in there.
[00:11:26.427]
run my search here.
[00:11:28.807]
and now it pulls me forward to this really nice
[00:11:31.048]
list of individuals here. So you're going
[00:11:33.239]
to see as I start to scroll down
[00:11:35.399]
all of these individuals I can actually click
[00:11:37.570]
into and this is going to pull me forward results
[00:11:39.950]
related to these people.
[00:11:41.807]
And on the right hand side here you'll see the number
[00:11:44.009]
of results I have for each individual. So some
[00:11:46.080]
individuals will have more content
[00:11:48.168]
than others, but you'll be able to see here
[00:11:50.519]
exactly what's available and then you can really
[00:11:52.879]
easily just click through and find content that
[00:11:55.000]
way. The
[00:11:57.849]
work search looks very similar to that.
[00:12:00.200]
I will click into that
[00:12:01.690]
right here in my toolbar
[00:12:04.759]
So you'll see the same formatting here
[00:12:07.989]
You'll see I can't choose my type of work
[00:12:10.769]
here. I can also use it, choose
[00:12:13.149]
a time frame. So if I just want to look through
[00:12:15.269]
a specific century, I have that option
[00:12:17.479]
here as well.
[00:12:19.278]
but I want to point out our full text
[00:12:21.619]
limiter option.
[00:12:23.359]
So if I click into that and run my search,
[00:12:25.418]
I'll be able to see all of the full text content
[00:12:27.580]
we have in here. Again, depending
[00:12:29.677]
on the resources that
[00:12:31.778]
you have available. Many of them do
[00:12:33.830]
have full text poems, short
[00:12:35.969]
stories, plays, even
[00:12:38.239]
some speeches, things like that.
[00:12:40.009]
So you do have the option to limit that right
[00:12:42.298]
here within the cross search option.
[00:12:44.807]
Um I do have access right now to 190,000
[00:12:48.119]
full text pieces of information.
[00:12:50.950]
again, that will most likely be different for you
[00:12:53.090]
depending on what you have access to.
[00:12:56.927]
and I'm going to jump back home for the
[00:12:58.960]
last time here
[00:13:01.609]
You see we have a couple more tools listed here
[00:13:03.830]
on this right hand side. I'll take a look
[00:13:06.019]
at those in a second, but I do first just want to run
[00:13:08.190]
a search. So if you have users coming
[00:13:10.389]
in who are just planning on running that basic
[00:13:12.427]
search, they don't know exactly what they're looking
[00:13:14.619]
for.they maybe they don't really want
[00:13:16.889]
to browse, they can just start off
[00:13:18.940]
with a search here. So today I'm going to search one
[00:13:21.229]
flew over the cue's nest.
[00:13:23.349]
And you'll see as I start to type here,
[00:13:25.479]
I have a few options that are bolded up top
[00:13:28.840]
Any predictive text that's bolded
[00:13:30.899]
is actually a topic page. So just
[00:13:33.028]
like we took a look at what just like
[00:13:35.129]
we saw when we clicked into this browse topic
[00:13:37.399]
section, if you run a search and there's
[00:13:39.609]
a topic page, it's going to pull that forward as
[00:13:41.739]
well. So I'll click into my topic
[00:13:44.119]
page here.
[00:13:47.460]
Now when I do that I will pull
[00:13:49.590]
that full topic page experience forward.
[00:13:52.239]
Since this is a work
[00:13:54.340]
a lot of times you'll get these quick facts about
[00:13:56.440]
the author when it was published,
[00:13:58.580]
all that good stuff on this left
[00:14:00.700]
hand side. Again we have a nice overview
[00:14:02.759]
of the specific topic. so of course
[00:14:05.139]
this is going to be an overview of both
[00:14:07.479]
the work and the author.
[00:14:11.668]
now, down underneath. Again we have all of
[00:14:13.769]
our different bits of information,
[00:14:16.288]
pre organ for us. So we can really
[00:14:18.580]
easily just start to click through
[00:14:21.259]
again at the very bottom, we do have a related
[00:14:23.509]
topics page here,
[00:14:25.668]
Well, let's go ahead and click into one
[00:14:28.009]
of these little content buckets here today. I'm going
[00:14:30.119]
to click into topic and work overviews
[00:14:35.080]
now when I do that it's going to pull forward but looks like
[00:14:37.239]
a basic search. So if I were to
[00:14:39.320]
search for something that didn't have a topic
[00:14:41.399]
page
[00:14:42.710]
It would look like this with all of my
[00:14:45.019]
results pulled here, it does default
[00:14:47.080]
to sorting by relevance
[00:14:49.229]
if they want to, they can drop this down
[00:14:51.369]
and choose to sort by newest or by oldest
[00:14:53.668]
or by document title if they want to.
[00:14:55.750]
But it does again default to showing
[00:14:58.070]
relevance first.
[00:15:01.427]
Now, once I'm in this here, I do want to point
[00:15:03.538]
out if your users are interested
[00:15:05.830]
in where exactly this content is being pulled,
[00:15:08.739]
we're going to show them down underneath the
[00:15:10.798]
entry where they're found. So this particular
[00:15:13.080]
entry is found within Gil literature lit finder.
[00:15:16.557]
If I scroll down, you'll see there's one here from
[00:15:18.940]
Literature Resource Center
[00:15:21.119]
and I can just start to scroll down to see where all of this
[00:15:23.177]
content is pulled from.
[00:15:27.048]
on this right hand side here, I also have some
[00:15:29.168]
great filters that are going to help me out as I start
[00:15:31.408]
to research the one I really like to point
[00:15:33.590]
out is the subjects here. So this is going
[00:15:35.639]
to narrow it down even further than
[00:15:37.700]
my basic search. Remember my search was just
[00:15:39.729]
for the work itself, but now
[00:15:41.899]
I can narrow it down a bit further here
[00:15:45.038]
Maybe I want to talk specifically about
[00:15:47.080]
freedom related to this book,
[00:15:49.259]
pessimism. You'll see all that great stuff. I
[00:15:51.278]
can click and navigate through here,
[00:15:54.519]
I also have the option to narrow down just
[00:15:56.609]
to peer review journals.
[00:15:58.840]
when I do that, you'll see it's pulling forward my
[00:16:00.979]
literature criticism first
[00:16:03.210]
and I'll be able to click through this
[00:16:05.320]
and what's great is our peer reviewed bits
[00:16:07.340]
of information are listed as
[00:16:09.538]
peer reviewed. You'll see this nice little checkmark
[00:16:11.609]
here. So if your users are looking for peer
[00:16:13.769]
reviewed content, they'll always just want to find that checkmark
[00:16:16.677]
and they'll be ready to go.
[00:16:18.418]
But I want all of my information today. Not just
[00:16:22.307]
my peer review journal. So I'm
[00:16:24.330]
going to jump back to topic and work overview
[00:16:26.750]
since that's where I was previously.
[00:16:30.028]
underneath this, I also have the option
[00:16:32.057]
to click into a topic finder or
[00:16:34.349]
a term frequency chart. So I can start to
[00:16:36.399]
see the frequency of this
[00:16:38.408]
work being talked about. If
[00:16:40.599]
I decided to click into my topic finder here,
[00:16:44.859]
that search that it already ran
[00:16:47.629]
is going to pull forward here and I'm going to get
[00:16:49.788]
some related topics
[00:16:51.840]
and I can click into any of these
[00:16:54.307]
and it's going to narrow down my results. So just
[00:16:56.469]
three results here as opposed to
[00:16:58.479]
everything I saw on the previous page.
[00:17:01.090]
So this is a nice way to both
[00:17:03.158]
narrow down results but also to make
[00:17:05.170]
different interconnections between different
[00:17:07.250]
topics here.
[00:17:09.058]
I'm gonna hit the back button because I want to stay
[00:17:11.140]
on my results page.
[00:17:13.958]
And I'm just going to click into my first one here,
[00:17:16.117]
an explanation.
[00:17:18.846]
And when I do that, this page is going
[00:17:20.867]
to look exactly how it looks and whatever resource.
[00:17:23.807]
this was pulled from.
[00:17:26.817]
Excuse me. So this one is pulled from lip finder.
[00:17:29.880]
so it would look exactly like this if I were to
[00:17:31.890]
have run the search within the native resource
[00:17:34.298]
as well. And what's great is now that I'm
[00:17:36.410]
on this page. I have all of the same
[00:17:38.640]
tools that I would have had within
[00:17:41.420]
gay literature lit finder. I have it here on
[00:17:43.479]
my gay literature platform. So if I wanted
[00:17:45.640]
to, if I found some great content that
[00:17:47.660]
I either want to save for myself or maybe
[00:17:49.847]
I want to forward along to colleagues or to
[00:17:52.288]
group members. If I'm a student,
[00:17:54.880]
I can hit my send to button up top here
[00:17:58.170]
This is going to let me send this bit of information
[00:18:00.969]
over to my drives or I can choose to
[00:18:02.989]
email it maybe to myself or
[00:18:05.087]
to again maybe a colleague or a group
[00:18:07.160]
member.
[00:18:08.528]
I can also download this bit of content
[00:18:10.650]
or print it out to save it for later if that works
[00:18:12.847]
well and
[00:18:14.939]
I have this great get link feature here and this
[00:18:17.077]
button actually follows me along throughout the full
[00:18:19.269]
session. So as I'm finding different bits
[00:18:21.420]
of content, I want to save for later. If
[00:18:23.509]
I don't want to put it in my drive, I don't
[00:18:25.519]
want to email it, I can just pull this nice
[00:18:27.857]
quick get link. It is a persistent
[00:18:30.199]
URL that's going to pull me back to this
[00:18:32.219]
exact page so I can copy and paste this
[00:18:34.989]
and put it wherever I want to go.
[00:18:37.278]
And you'll also find that get link option on
[00:18:39.670]
our topic pages and our search
[00:18:41.729]
results pages. So if I ran a search
[00:18:43.880]
and find a lot of great stuff that I want to save,
[00:18:46.357]
I can't right now click through every single article,
[00:18:48.597]
but I do want to look at them later,
[00:18:50.867]
I can use my get link and I'll be pulled to that page
[00:18:54.278]
So this is another really powerful tool that
[00:18:56.347]
we have available within all of
[00:18:58.410]
our literature resources.
[00:19:01.880]
now, scrolling down a little bit, I will point out you
[00:19:03.930]
have those same features down here underneath.
[00:19:06.558]
So these do the same as these buttons,
[00:19:08.597]
we just like to add it in two different places
[00:19:10.910]
just for a little bit of redundancy to make sure
[00:19:13.278]
everyone can find what they're looking for.
[00:19:16.630]
We also have a citation feature. So if
[00:19:18.680]
you do have students clicking through these resources,
[00:19:21.689]
they'll be able to cite it directly.
[00:19:23.788]
You'll see it is showing that it came from
[00:19:25.867]
Gale literature lit finder, even though they've
[00:19:28.048]
searched it through gil literature
[00:19:30.150]
since it's just considered a cross search,
[00:19:32.509]
that's not exactly what we're going to put in our citation.
[00:19:34.910]
We're going to put the actual resource. So
[00:19:36.989]
that's already pre created for
[00:19:39.048]
your users
[00:19:42.719]
In addition to that, they can choose to edit how
[00:19:44.969]
they're seeing this text as well. So
[00:19:47.117]
they have the ability to translate. If I hit
[00:19:49.308]
my translate button under here, they can choose
[00:19:51.489]
whatever language they need
[00:19:53.489]
they can increase or decrease the the font size
[00:19:55.670]
again as needed.
[00:19:57.390]
They have the option to change their display
[00:20:00.298]
right here, so I could change the color that I'm
[00:20:02.449]
seeing.
[00:20:03.509]
I can also change the font
[00:20:05.640]
to make it whichever font I prefer,
[00:20:07.709]
we do have a dyslexia fonts available
[00:20:10.327]
here and then I can also change the line, letter
[00:20:12.439]
and word spacing
[00:20:14.140]
so this is again just trying to increase
[00:20:16.199]
the accessibility as much as possible.
[00:20:18.269]
So every user or whatever
[00:20:20.500]
needs they have, we want to make sure they can access this
[00:20:22.689]
content. And this is one way we do that
[00:20:25.380]
I'm gonna pull this back to the default settings today
[00:20:27.519]
though and
[00:20:30.180]
finally they can listen to this as well. I'm just
[00:20:32.199]
going to pause it because I didn't hit um
[00:20:34.400]
I didn't share my audio with you, but
[00:20:36.617]
they do have the option to listen to this.
[00:20:38.630]
You'll see when I hit that list. And but it opens
[00:20:40.798]
up this little tool bar here
[00:20:42.808]
and you'll see. I have a a few different settings
[00:20:45.209]
options to make sure this is being read to me as
[00:20:47.357]
best it can be. I can choose
[00:20:49.587]
to have text highlighted as it's
[00:20:51.689]
being read. I can choose the different colors.
[00:20:54.140]
I can also choose things like the read speed.
[00:20:56.867]
So it defaults to a medium speed.
[00:20:59.009]
If I need a slower option, I have that
[00:21:01.067]
here. If I want to listen to it quickly, I have
[00:21:03.317]
a fast option here as well, but it does default
[00:21:05.650]
to that medium there.
[00:21:10.347]
So again, these tools are found within the
[00:21:12.469]
native literature resources, so
[00:21:14.567]
that finder Literature Resource Center.
[00:21:17.380]
Excuse me.
[00:21:20.077]
but we've included them here within gil literature
[00:21:22.597]
as well to keep that same formatting
[00:21:25.038]
and to make sure your users always have access
[00:21:27.317]
to these different tools that definitely come in handy
[00:21:30.189]
as they're starting to kind of run
[00:21:32.577]
through their research
[00:21:35.357]
One final feature, I'll point out is our Explorer
[00:21:37.680]
panel, you'll find this on all of our entries
[00:21:39.699]
as well. So this is going to help move
[00:21:41.900]
their research forward. They can start to click through
[00:21:44.180]
more articles like this one or
[00:21:46.528]
you'll see. We do include related topics here.
[00:21:48.739]
So maybe if we want to take a look at the author now, as
[00:21:50.900]
opposed to just the work,
[00:21:53.140]
we can certainly do that. Or maybe we want to take a look
[00:21:55.528]
at the movie. Maybe we want to kind
[00:21:57.689]
of compare that to the book or maybe
[00:21:59.969]
we're working through something like that. We can also take
[00:22:02.130]
a look at that right here on this platform
[00:22:08.278]
I'm going to click back to the home page. I still
[00:22:10.400]
haven't seen any questions pull forward.
[00:22:13.209]
but I do want to ask, we have about
[00:22:15.259]
five minutes and I do have some wrap up information
[00:22:17.837]
to give you but I do want to make sure
[00:22:20.048]
everyone knows. If you have questions, type
[00:22:22.199]
those into the Q and A. And I'll be able to answer
[00:22:24.239]
them. So let me switch back here
[00:22:28.439]
to my slides and again
[00:22:30.920]
if anyone has questions go ahead and type them in. But
[00:22:33.160]
I do have some contact info for
[00:22:35.180]
you. So moving forward, if you want to learn more,
[00:22:37.357]
um if you want to learn about one of the specific
[00:22:39.577]
literature resources as opposed to the cross
[00:22:41.660]
search or maybe you just want to dive deeper into the cross
[00:22:43.788]
search, you have access to a customer
[00:22:45.959]
success manager through who can really help
[00:22:48.038]
you out with that. They worked with Les
[00:22:50.357]
and with schools across the nation. So they have
[00:22:52.380]
a lot of great best practices that can
[00:22:54.528]
help you.
[00:22:57.130]
really target exactly how you want to
[00:22:59.150]
use this resource. If you don't know who
[00:23:01.199]
your customer success manager is, you can
[00:23:03.278]
just send a quick email to gil at customer success
[00:23:06.259]
at dot com. You're going to be forwarded to
[00:23:08.269]
the correct individual who can help you?
[00:23:10.587]
You also of course have access to your wonderful,
[00:23:12.930]
Sales consultant. So if you want to discuss
[00:23:15.959]
accessing any of the different Gale literature
[00:23:18.317]
resources, feel free to
[00:23:20.660]
reach out to them. If you don't know who your sales consultant
[00:23:23.009]
is, you can just go to support the
[00:23:25.140]
dot com forward slash
[00:23:26.689]
rainer and you'll be able to find that individual
[00:23:30.058]
and you'll also have access to a support site.
[00:23:32.097]
So I mentioned at the very beginning of this session,
[00:23:34.439]
if you're looking for webinars or other training
[00:23:36.719]
tools related to any of your gale literature
[00:23:38.930]
resources, you're going to find them on our
[00:23:40.959]
support site which is support dot
[00:23:43.058]
Gale dot com. We also have
[00:23:45.344]
Pre created tips sheets, resource guides.
[00:23:48.005]
if you're at a school we have have
[00:23:50.015]
lesson plans, activities, all that
[00:23:52.074]
good stuff. posters flyers,
[00:23:54.462]
you'll find all of that on our support site, which
[00:23:56.535]
again is support deck deal dot com. So if you're looking
[00:23:58.824]
to promote this resource,
[00:24:00.923]
don't reinvent the wheel, go to that support
[00:24:03.324]
site. Most likely we have things created
[00:24:05.403]
for you
[00:24:06.719]
and I do have a training survey.
[00:24:09.140]
If you have the time to take it, it's going to pop
[00:24:11.278]
up on your browser when we close out
[00:24:13.410]
of the session today, but I've also put it here as
[00:24:15.577]
a QR code, so if you have your phone handy,
[00:24:17.650]
feel free to scan that and fill that out
[00:24:19.680]
for us. it's always appreciated.
[00:24:21.817]
So we can make sure we're covering exactly
[00:24:24.077]
what you're looking for when we do run these sessions.
[00:24:28.400]
now. I haven't seen any other
[00:24:30.558]
questions come in any questions at all,
[00:24:32.930]
so I'm going to go ahead and end the session today
[00:24:35.219]
and hopefully we'll see you on sessions
[00:24:37.298]
in the future and please enjoy the rest
[00:24:39.347]
of your day.
thank you again everyone for being on the line
[00:00:09.448]
today. We're talking about gale
[00:00:11.500]
literature today. My name is
[00:00:13.560]
Amber Winters and I am your gale training
[00:00:15.618]
consultant
[00:00:17.609]
So I have a quick agenda here for everyone. So first
[00:00:19.949]
I'm gonna talk a little bit about what
[00:00:21.989]
gale literature is to be more specific.
[00:00:24.109]
Today. We're talking about the cross
[00:00:26.318]
search platform as opposed to one specific
[00:00:28.728]
resource. So we'll talk about that
[00:00:30.768]
today. We'll spend the majority of the time actually
[00:00:33.139]
walking through the resource though. So you can get a feel
[00:00:35.609]
of some of the different work flows.
[00:00:38.259]
that your users are going to be experiencing
[00:00:41.859]
and I will save time at the very end for any questions
[00:00:44.219]
that you may have and I do have some closing
[00:00:46.347]
information for you as well. if you do
[00:00:48.429]
have questions before the end of the session,
[00:00:50.560]
feel free to go ahead and ask those in the Q.
[00:00:52.700]
And A. And I should be able to keep up with that
[00:00:54.789]
as we're moving along today. If
[00:00:57.097]
it does get a little bit jammed up in the Q. And A. You
[00:00:59.130]
notice your question hasn't been answered?
[00:01:01.139]
Don't worry about it, it will be answered
[00:01:03.609]
at the very latest at the end of the session
[00:01:05.709]
today, So
[00:01:08.620]
let's go ahead and get started talking about
[00:01:10.789]
gale literature again, this is the cross search
[00:01:13.129]
platform that we're talking about today.
[00:01:15.307]
before we get started, if you're looking for
[00:01:17.408]
a webinar that's specifically about one
[00:01:19.557]
of the different resources, we do already
[00:01:21.799]
have those pre created
[00:01:23.837]
on the support site for you to take a look
[00:01:25.930]
at you get the support site information at the very
[00:01:28.150]
end of this session. But again today we're talking
[00:01:30.480]
about our cross search platform and this is going
[00:01:32.579]
to cross cross search
[00:01:34.829]
through all of the gale literature resources.
[00:01:37.128]
You here, see here on the screen now
[00:01:39.408]
you may or may not have access to all of these,
[00:01:41.769]
you're
[00:01:42.989]
Your institution could certainly vary. You may
[00:01:45.079]
have access to maybe two
[00:01:47.120]
or three, Maybe you have three or four, maybe you do have
[00:01:49.229]
all of them. But all of these will be cross
[00:01:51.277]
search on the gale literature. Cross search
[00:01:53.539]
platform and I will note here
[00:01:55.759]
that the platform is only going to search through
[00:01:57.848]
the resources you currently currently have access
[00:01:59.894]
to. So you don't need to worry about your patrons
[00:02:02.284]
or your students. searching
[00:02:04.474]
and then maybe hitting a wall because we found something
[00:02:06.823]
in, let's say they alerted her lip finder
[00:02:09.054]
and you don't have access to it. It's only going
[00:02:11.242]
to search through the resources that you currently
[00:02:13.335]
have access to.
[00:02:16.527]
and a couple of key features of the platform
[00:02:18.628]
before we just dive right in the first I want to
[00:02:20.710]
mention are our person and our work searches.
[00:02:23.718]
these are really helpful to narrow down contents
[00:02:26.188]
because scale literature. Again, you saw how many
[00:02:28.300]
resources it's searching through all at once
[00:02:30.758]
is going to pull back a huge amount of content.
[00:02:33.610]
So if your users are going in, Oftentimes
[00:02:36.204]
it's better to have something specific in mind
[00:02:38.274]
that they want to search for that way.
[00:02:40.365]
They're not in inundated with a
[00:02:42.375]
huge amount of results. So the person in
[00:02:44.402]
work search is a really nice way to do that
[00:02:46.902]
if they have a specific individual or work
[00:02:49.133]
in mind that they can search just for that
[00:02:51.425]
and really narrow down what they're looking for
[00:02:54.649]
in addition to that we include related resources
[00:02:57.277]
on the the home page of gale literature.
[00:02:59.598]
So we'll take a look at that and that's going
[00:03:01.729]
to give related resources that
[00:03:03.758]
your institution currently has access
[00:03:05.777]
to. So it's going to be resources that aren't
[00:03:08.080]
searched within gale literature but
[00:03:10.188]
that might be helpful or might be supplemental for
[00:03:12.199]
your users. So they'll see that here
[00:03:14.300]
on this platform as well.
[00:03:16.889]
And finally a new feature that we've just
[00:03:19.110]
added are some really great topic pages.
[00:03:21.307]
So again, these are helping your users filter
[00:03:23.527]
down to content they're looking for as
[00:03:26.288]
simply as possible because again, this
[00:03:28.318]
is a huge cross search. They're going to pull
[00:03:30.419]
a lot of content so we have these nice
[00:03:32.598]
topic pages that are going to curate results
[00:03:35.199]
related to some of the most search,
[00:03:37.288]
some of the most used topics
[00:03:39.389]
that are currently in research, both
[00:03:41.550]
for the secondary level students
[00:03:43.990]
as well as
[00:03:45.270]
excuse me, post secondary
[00:03:47.770]
and your kind of general researchers that you're going to find
[00:03:49.889]
maybe in a public library setting.
[00:03:52.538]
So we do have those topic pages prec
[00:03:54.579]
created where we organize all of our results
[00:03:56.699]
nice and easily so users can access
[00:03:59.098]
that really. Similarly,
[00:04:02.288]
now. I just want to start to click through this resource
[00:04:04.568]
here. I think we don't need to spend too much time talking
[00:04:06.848]
about it while I'm switching over
[00:04:08.929]
to my other screen. Do we have any questions?
[00:04:11.378]
I haven't seen any pop into the Q and A. But
[00:04:13.628]
I do want to make sure I hit those.
[00:04:17.987]
Ok, I don't see any, so give me one
[00:04:20.160]
quick second here. I got logged
[00:04:22.338]
out of my instant. Let me sign back in.
[00:04:24.500]
There we go.
[00:04:26.298]
So this is the gale literature home page and
[00:04:28.358]
I want to go over kind of the layout of
[00:04:30.389]
the land a little bit before I really dig in. So
[00:04:32.869]
we do of course have our basic
[00:04:35.139]
and advanced searches up here in the
[00:04:37.177]
the banner up top here but down
[00:04:39.209]
underneath we have some other really nice goodies
[00:04:41.369]
that are found on this page here. So we'll talk
[00:04:43.600]
about our toolbar in one second.
[00:04:45.619]
But underneath that
[00:04:46.980]
it's giving you just a little bit about what this resource
[00:04:49.409]
is, it will certainly be helpful
[00:04:51.519]
for your users so they understand exactly
[00:04:54.139]
what they're alert looking through
[00:04:57.269]
and then down underneath. Again, as I mentioned,
[00:04:59.409]
you have access to this nice
[00:05:01.528]
related from gale feature
[00:05:03.927]
so yours will most likely look different than
[00:05:06.028]
mine. This is only showing what your institution
[00:05:08.629]
has access to. So one
[00:05:11.009]
great feature, I like to point out gale book and books
[00:05:13.379]
and authors is not cross searched.
[00:05:15.713]
through good literature, but it's oftentimes handy
[00:05:18.204]
as your users are starting to look for different books
[00:05:20.454]
to read. So we do include that here under
[00:05:22.834]
the related literature. Resources, you'll
[00:05:24.884]
see often times quite a few different
[00:05:26.975]
archives and things are found here as well. So if
[00:05:29.035]
you do have access to those we
[00:05:31.285]
may include them here at the bottom. Your users will be able
[00:05:33.375]
to see that
[00:05:34.959]
They can click into any of these and it's
[00:05:37.048]
going to pull them forward into that resource
[00:05:39.509]
so they can kind of move their research forward.
[00:05:41.909]
They won't need to authenticate into that resource
[00:05:44.209]
because they're already signed in with
[00:05:46.558]
Gil literature. So it'll automatically log
[00:05:48.730]
them into whatever resource they clicked
[00:05:50.959]
into here
[00:05:53.769]
now scrolling back up, I want to go into
[00:05:55.829]
these tools we have in this toolbar here because
[00:05:58.009]
even without running our basic search,
[00:06:00.389]
we've got some really powerful tools right here that
[00:06:02.420]
are going to help us out. So the first one is this
[00:06:04.649]
what's inside button with this little
[00:06:06.699]
box icon?
[00:06:08.129]
And this is going to show me what exactly is
[00:06:10.278]
being searched within gil literature.
[00:06:12.829]
So you notice my list is a little bit smaller
[00:06:15.269]
than what I showed you on my slides because this is
[00:06:17.338]
all my instance has access to
[00:06:20.778]
but I can actually click on one of these.
[00:06:23.559]
and I can search within this resource. So even
[00:06:25.778]
though I'm on gay literature which is our cross search
[00:06:27.980]
platform, if I decided I really
[00:06:30.209]
just wanted to take a look at what we have available
[00:06:32.619]
within gale Literature Resource Center,
[00:06:35.009]
I can click on that and search and
[00:06:37.100]
it's just going to pull forward content from that resource.
[00:06:39.858]
So if they did click into gale literature but
[00:06:41.959]
they are actually looking for information just
[00:06:44.069]
from one resource they
[00:06:46.100]
can do that right here on this platform. Of course they can
[00:06:48.420]
certainly just sign directly into
[00:06:50.439]
gay literature Resource center.
[00:06:52.298]
but they can do it this way if they already clicked
[00:06:54.509]
into gale literature and don't want to kind of take
[00:06:56.579]
that step back, they can click into the what's
[00:06:58.699]
inside and run their search for through
[00:07:01.069]
one specific resource here.
[00:07:04.470]
Now I'm going to jump back to the home page just
[00:07:06.619]
so we kind of have one landing spot as
[00:07:08.759]
we go through today. So I just clicked
[00:07:10.850]
on my banner up top and it's pulled me back
[00:07:12.927]
forward here
[00:07:14.309]
So next to my what's inside button,
[00:07:16.350]
I have a browse topics option. And this
[00:07:18.420]
is where those topic pages I mentioned are
[00:07:20.427]
going to be found.
[00:07:22.048]
and this is a new feature that we've just added.
[00:07:24.309]
Again, just another layer of organization
[00:07:26.329]
for your users.
[00:07:27.737]
So they can click into that browse topics
[00:07:29.949]
and they're pulled forward to the screen. That's showing all
[00:07:31.987]
of the different topic pages we have
[00:07:34.290]
created here on this platform.
[00:07:36.778]
So you'll see they have the option to filter their topics
[00:07:38.889]
here. We have them all
[00:07:40.939]
listed down underneath and I can click into any
[00:07:43.028]
of these topics
[00:07:45.350]
on the left hand side. We also have the different
[00:07:47.689]
topic categories that we can click into.
[00:07:50.619]
I could choose to narrow down what I'm looking at
[00:07:52.730]
with this drop down here. So it defaults
[00:07:54.909]
to showing topics which is going to be all of our topics.
[00:07:58.159]
But I can change it to just showing works
[00:08:00.379]
or I can change it to showing authors
[00:08:03.170]
but we'll leave it as topics today.
[00:08:06.399]
And let's take a look over our left hand side
[00:08:08.459]
here. So let's say I really want to narrow it down specifically
[00:08:10.798]
to cultural identity. Maybe I'm doing
[00:08:13.028]
a research project on that or something
[00:08:15.230]
similar to that. You'll see when I click now
[00:08:17.427]
into just cultural identity. It's
[00:08:19.480]
pulling up all of the topic pages we
[00:08:21.509]
have created relating to
[00:08:23.629]
that topic. Now I do want to mention.
[00:08:25.970]
These are not all of the topics we
[00:08:28.009]
have within our resources about
[00:08:30.069]
cultural identity. These are some of
[00:08:32.090]
the top searched in the tap used
[00:08:34.200]
topics. So we've created this information
[00:08:36.710]
to help individuals who may be starting
[00:08:39.119]
to kind of take a look at, Excuse me,
[00:08:42.158]
some of the the most popular
[00:08:44.649]
topics we've pulled that forward, so I can
[00:08:46.690]
click into any of these let's
[00:08:48.769]
say, brazil, Brazilian literature
[00:08:51.057]
today, when I do that.
[00:08:53.109]
This is our topic page here. So at the top
[00:08:55.739]
I have an overview about my topic
[00:08:58.960]
down underneath?
[00:09:00.489]
I have all of my related results. So
[00:09:02.580]
instead of seeing just the basic search results
[00:09:04.820]
page,
[00:09:06.009]
I see all of this nice and organized. I see
[00:09:08.200]
I have a lot of biographies related to this
[00:09:10.259]
topic, some news reports, a
[00:09:12.269]
lot of primary sources and literary
[00:09:14.469]
works. You're going to see a lot of literary
[00:09:16.879]
works if you have access to Gale
[00:09:19.048]
literature lip finder, it's going to have a lot
[00:09:21.139]
of full texts. So again, your
[00:09:23.239]
results are most likely going to be different than mine
[00:09:25.450]
based on what resources you have access
[00:09:27.570]
to. But you'll start to see all of this content
[00:09:30.080]
and as I scroll down,
[00:09:31.489]
you'll see. I've got these different content buckets
[00:09:33.580]
that I've really completely organized my
[00:09:35.677]
results here. So I'll be able to scroll through
[00:09:37.950]
find exactly what I'm looking for
[00:09:40.899]
and then at the very bottom of our topic pages, we
[00:09:43.019]
do include a related topics section
[00:09:45.177]
here. So if I want to move forward. just
[00:09:47.580]
strictly using my topic pages, I don't even
[00:09:49.729]
want to run a search. Maybe I just want to click through that
[00:09:51.788]
way. I can do that by using these related
[00:09:54.080]
topics down below.
[00:09:59.019]
Now, are there any questions about these
[00:10:01.099]
topic pages, how they're formatted? Anything
[00:10:03.389]
like that
[00:10:06.739]
Ok, No questions. So we'll go ahead and keep
[00:10:08.759]
going again. I'm going to bounce
[00:10:10.840]
back to the home page as we kind of click
[00:10:13.019]
through these different features just so we have
[00:10:15.099]
one landing point. So next to our
[00:10:17.129]
browse topics, we have our person
[00:10:19.219]
search and our work search.
[00:10:21.399]
They both have their own button. They're also found under
[00:10:23.719]
the advanced search option, but
[00:10:25.739]
we have pulled them forward here just because they are
[00:10:27.840]
so powerful and they are used
[00:10:29.859]
fairly frequently. We want to make sure they're
[00:10:31.879]
clear and easy to find.
[00:10:34.778]
So I wanna click into person search today
[00:10:37.099]
just so we can take a quick look here.
[00:10:39.288]
And this this feature is really
[00:10:41.408]
handy if your your
[00:10:43.570]
users has someone that's specific in
[00:10:45.609]
mind. Of course they'll be able to just run for that
[00:10:47.750]
run a search for that person. But
[00:10:50.019]
it's also really nice if they're maybe looking for
[00:10:52.038]
a specific category of individual
[00:10:54.798]
maybe there um
[00:10:57.190]
doing a project on, let's say women
[00:10:59.369]
authors or maybe hispanic women authors
[00:11:01.590]
or african american
[00:11:03.807]
authors or whomever. they
[00:11:06.019]
can narrow that down here underneath using these search
[00:11:08.359]
limiters. So I can click in
[00:11:10.369]
maybe again, I do want to click into female.
[00:11:14.009]
maybe I want to change my ethnicity here.
[00:11:16.330]
See I can scroll down. So let's say hispanic american.
[00:11:18.830]
So we're running a project on hispanic
[00:11:21.330]
american. Female authors.
[00:11:23.349]
So I'm going to put that in there.
[00:11:26.427]
run my search here.
[00:11:28.807]
and now it pulls me forward to this really nice
[00:11:31.048]
list of individuals here. So you're going
[00:11:33.239]
to see as I start to scroll down
[00:11:35.399]
all of these individuals I can actually click
[00:11:37.570]
into and this is going to pull me forward results
[00:11:39.950]
related to these people.
[00:11:41.807]
And on the right hand side here you'll see the number
[00:11:44.009]
of results I have for each individual. So some
[00:11:46.080]
individuals will have more content
[00:11:48.168]
than others, but you'll be able to see here
[00:11:50.519]
exactly what's available and then you can really
[00:11:52.879]
easily just click through and find content that
[00:11:55.000]
way. The
[00:11:57.849]
work search looks very similar to that.
[00:12:00.200]
I will click into that
[00:12:01.690]
right here in my toolbar
[00:12:04.759]
So you'll see the same formatting here
[00:12:07.989]
You'll see I can't choose my type of work
[00:12:10.769]
here. I can also use it, choose
[00:12:13.149]
a time frame. So if I just want to look through
[00:12:15.269]
a specific century, I have that option
[00:12:17.479]
here as well.
[00:12:19.278]
but I want to point out our full text
[00:12:21.619]
limiter option.
[00:12:23.359]
So if I click into that and run my search,
[00:12:25.418]
I'll be able to see all of the full text content
[00:12:27.580]
we have in here. Again, depending
[00:12:29.677]
on the resources that
[00:12:31.778]
you have available. Many of them do
[00:12:33.830]
have full text poems, short
[00:12:35.969]
stories, plays, even
[00:12:38.239]
some speeches, things like that.
[00:12:40.009]
So you do have the option to limit that right
[00:12:42.298]
here within the cross search option.
[00:12:44.807]
Um I do have access right now to 190,000
[00:12:48.119]
full text pieces of information.
[00:12:50.950]
again, that will most likely be different for you
[00:12:53.090]
depending on what you have access to.
[00:12:56.927]
and I'm going to jump back home for the
[00:12:58.960]
last time here
[00:13:01.609]
You see we have a couple more tools listed here
[00:13:03.830]
on this right hand side. I'll take a look
[00:13:06.019]
at those in a second, but I do first just want to run
[00:13:08.190]
a search. So if you have users coming
[00:13:10.389]
in who are just planning on running that basic
[00:13:12.427]
search, they don't know exactly what they're looking
[00:13:14.619]
for.they maybe they don't really want
[00:13:16.889]
to browse, they can just start off
[00:13:18.940]
with a search here. So today I'm going to search one
[00:13:21.229]
flew over the cue's nest.
[00:13:23.349]
And you'll see as I start to type here,
[00:13:25.479]
I have a few options that are bolded up top
[00:13:28.840]
Any predictive text that's bolded
[00:13:30.899]
is actually a topic page. So just
[00:13:33.028]
like we took a look at what just like
[00:13:35.129]
we saw when we clicked into this browse topic
[00:13:37.399]
section, if you run a search and there's
[00:13:39.609]
a topic page, it's going to pull that forward as
[00:13:41.739]
well. So I'll click into my topic
[00:13:44.119]
page here.
[00:13:47.460]
Now when I do that I will pull
[00:13:49.590]
that full topic page experience forward.
[00:13:52.239]
Since this is a work
[00:13:54.340]
a lot of times you'll get these quick facts about
[00:13:56.440]
the author when it was published,
[00:13:58.580]
all that good stuff on this left
[00:14:00.700]
hand side. Again we have a nice overview
[00:14:02.759]
of the specific topic. so of course
[00:14:05.139]
this is going to be an overview of both
[00:14:07.479]
the work and the author.
[00:14:11.668]
now, down underneath. Again we have all of
[00:14:13.769]
our different bits of information,
[00:14:16.288]
pre organ for us. So we can really
[00:14:18.580]
easily just start to click through
[00:14:21.259]
again at the very bottom, we do have a related
[00:14:23.509]
topics page here,
[00:14:25.668]
Well, let's go ahead and click into one
[00:14:28.009]
of these little content buckets here today. I'm going
[00:14:30.119]
to click into topic and work overviews
[00:14:35.080]
now when I do that it's going to pull forward but looks like
[00:14:37.239]
a basic search. So if I were to
[00:14:39.320]
search for something that didn't have a topic
[00:14:41.399]
page
[00:14:42.710]
It would look like this with all of my
[00:14:45.019]
results pulled here, it does default
[00:14:47.080]
to sorting by relevance
[00:14:49.229]
if they want to, they can drop this down
[00:14:51.369]
and choose to sort by newest or by oldest
[00:14:53.668]
or by document title if they want to.
[00:14:55.750]
But it does again default to showing
[00:14:58.070]
relevance first.
[00:15:01.427]
Now, once I'm in this here, I do want to point
[00:15:03.538]
out if your users are interested
[00:15:05.830]
in where exactly this content is being pulled,
[00:15:08.739]
we're going to show them down underneath the
[00:15:10.798]
entry where they're found. So this particular
[00:15:13.080]
entry is found within Gil literature lit finder.
[00:15:16.557]
If I scroll down, you'll see there's one here from
[00:15:18.940]
Literature Resource Center
[00:15:21.119]
and I can just start to scroll down to see where all of this
[00:15:23.177]
content is pulled from.
[00:15:27.048]
on this right hand side here, I also have some
[00:15:29.168]
great filters that are going to help me out as I start
[00:15:31.408]
to research the one I really like to point
[00:15:33.590]
out is the subjects here. So this is going
[00:15:35.639]
to narrow it down even further than
[00:15:37.700]
my basic search. Remember my search was just
[00:15:39.729]
for the work itself, but now
[00:15:41.899]
I can narrow it down a bit further here
[00:15:45.038]
Maybe I want to talk specifically about
[00:15:47.080]
freedom related to this book,
[00:15:49.259]
pessimism. You'll see all that great stuff. I
[00:15:51.278]
can click and navigate through here,
[00:15:54.519]
I also have the option to narrow down just
[00:15:56.609]
to peer review journals.
[00:15:58.840]
when I do that, you'll see it's pulling forward my
[00:16:00.979]
literature criticism first
[00:16:03.210]
and I'll be able to click through this
[00:16:05.320]
and what's great is our peer reviewed bits
[00:16:07.340]
of information are listed as
[00:16:09.538]
peer reviewed. You'll see this nice little checkmark
[00:16:11.609]
here. So if your users are looking for peer
[00:16:13.769]
reviewed content, they'll always just want to find that checkmark
[00:16:16.677]
and they'll be ready to go.
[00:16:18.418]
But I want all of my information today. Not just
[00:16:22.307]
my peer review journal. So I'm
[00:16:24.330]
going to jump back to topic and work overview
[00:16:26.750]
since that's where I was previously.
[00:16:30.028]
underneath this, I also have the option
[00:16:32.057]
to click into a topic finder or
[00:16:34.349]
a term frequency chart. So I can start to
[00:16:36.399]
see the frequency of this
[00:16:38.408]
work being talked about. If
[00:16:40.599]
I decided to click into my topic finder here,
[00:16:44.859]
that search that it already ran
[00:16:47.629]
is going to pull forward here and I'm going to get
[00:16:49.788]
some related topics
[00:16:51.840]
and I can click into any of these
[00:16:54.307]
and it's going to narrow down my results. So just
[00:16:56.469]
three results here as opposed to
[00:16:58.479]
everything I saw on the previous page.
[00:17:01.090]
So this is a nice way to both
[00:17:03.158]
narrow down results but also to make
[00:17:05.170]
different interconnections between different
[00:17:07.250]
topics here.
[00:17:09.058]
I'm gonna hit the back button because I want to stay
[00:17:11.140]
on my results page.
[00:17:13.958]
And I'm just going to click into my first one here,
[00:17:16.117]
an explanation.
[00:17:18.846]
And when I do that, this page is going
[00:17:20.867]
to look exactly how it looks and whatever resource.
[00:17:23.807]
this was pulled from.
[00:17:26.817]
Excuse me. So this one is pulled from lip finder.
[00:17:29.880]
so it would look exactly like this if I were to
[00:17:31.890]
have run the search within the native resource
[00:17:34.298]
as well. And what's great is now that I'm
[00:17:36.410]
on this page. I have all of the same
[00:17:38.640]
tools that I would have had within
[00:17:41.420]
gay literature lit finder. I have it here on
[00:17:43.479]
my gay literature platform. So if I wanted
[00:17:45.640]
to, if I found some great content that
[00:17:47.660]
I either want to save for myself or maybe
[00:17:49.847]
I want to forward along to colleagues or to
[00:17:52.288]
group members. If I'm a student,
[00:17:54.880]
I can hit my send to button up top here
[00:17:58.170]
This is going to let me send this bit of information
[00:18:00.969]
over to my drives or I can choose to
[00:18:02.989]
email it maybe to myself or
[00:18:05.087]
to again maybe a colleague or a group
[00:18:07.160]
member.
[00:18:08.528]
I can also download this bit of content
[00:18:10.650]
or print it out to save it for later if that works
[00:18:12.847]
well and
[00:18:14.939]
I have this great get link feature here and this
[00:18:17.077]
button actually follows me along throughout the full
[00:18:19.269]
session. So as I'm finding different bits
[00:18:21.420]
of content, I want to save for later. If
[00:18:23.509]
I don't want to put it in my drive, I don't
[00:18:25.519]
want to email it, I can just pull this nice
[00:18:27.857]
quick get link. It is a persistent
[00:18:30.199]
URL that's going to pull me back to this
[00:18:32.219]
exact page so I can copy and paste this
[00:18:34.989]
and put it wherever I want to go.
[00:18:37.278]
And you'll also find that get link option on
[00:18:39.670]
our topic pages and our search
[00:18:41.729]
results pages. So if I ran a search
[00:18:43.880]
and find a lot of great stuff that I want to save,
[00:18:46.357]
I can't right now click through every single article,
[00:18:48.597]
but I do want to look at them later,
[00:18:50.867]
I can use my get link and I'll be pulled to that page
[00:18:54.278]
So this is another really powerful tool that
[00:18:56.347]
we have available within all of
[00:18:58.410]
our literature resources.
[00:19:01.880]
now, scrolling down a little bit, I will point out you
[00:19:03.930]
have those same features down here underneath.
[00:19:06.558]
So these do the same as these buttons,
[00:19:08.597]
we just like to add it in two different places
[00:19:10.910]
just for a little bit of redundancy to make sure
[00:19:13.278]
everyone can find what they're looking for.
[00:19:16.630]
We also have a citation feature. So if
[00:19:18.680]
you do have students clicking through these resources,
[00:19:21.689]
they'll be able to cite it directly.
[00:19:23.788]
You'll see it is showing that it came from
[00:19:25.867]
Gale literature lit finder, even though they've
[00:19:28.048]
searched it through gil literature
[00:19:30.150]
since it's just considered a cross search,
[00:19:32.509]
that's not exactly what we're going to put in our citation.
[00:19:34.910]
We're going to put the actual resource. So
[00:19:36.989]
that's already pre created for
[00:19:39.048]
your users
[00:19:42.719]
In addition to that, they can choose to edit how
[00:19:44.969]
they're seeing this text as well. So
[00:19:47.117]
they have the ability to translate. If I hit
[00:19:49.308]
my translate button under here, they can choose
[00:19:51.489]
whatever language they need
[00:19:53.489]
they can increase or decrease the the font size
[00:19:55.670]
again as needed.
[00:19:57.390]
They have the option to change their display
[00:20:00.298]
right here, so I could change the color that I'm
[00:20:02.449]
seeing.
[00:20:03.509]
I can also change the font
[00:20:05.640]
to make it whichever font I prefer,
[00:20:07.709]
we do have a dyslexia fonts available
[00:20:10.327]
here and then I can also change the line, letter
[00:20:12.439]
and word spacing
[00:20:14.140]
so this is again just trying to increase
[00:20:16.199]
the accessibility as much as possible.
[00:20:18.269]
So every user or whatever
[00:20:20.500]
needs they have, we want to make sure they can access this
[00:20:22.689]
content. And this is one way we do that
[00:20:25.380]
I'm gonna pull this back to the default settings today
[00:20:27.519]
though and
[00:20:30.180]
finally they can listen to this as well. I'm just
[00:20:32.199]
going to pause it because I didn't hit um
[00:20:34.400]
I didn't share my audio with you, but
[00:20:36.617]
they do have the option to listen to this.
[00:20:38.630]
You'll see when I hit that list. And but it opens
[00:20:40.798]
up this little tool bar here
[00:20:42.808]
and you'll see. I have a a few different settings
[00:20:45.209]
options to make sure this is being read to me as
[00:20:47.357]
best it can be. I can choose
[00:20:49.587]
to have text highlighted as it's
[00:20:51.689]
being read. I can choose the different colors.
[00:20:54.140]
I can also choose things like the read speed.
[00:20:56.867]
So it defaults to a medium speed.
[00:20:59.009]
If I need a slower option, I have that
[00:21:01.067]
here. If I want to listen to it quickly, I have
[00:21:03.317]
a fast option here as well, but it does default
[00:21:05.650]
to that medium there.
[00:21:10.347]
So again, these tools are found within the
[00:21:12.469]
native literature resources, so
[00:21:14.567]
that finder Literature Resource Center.
[00:21:17.380]
Excuse me.
[00:21:20.077]
but we've included them here within gil literature
[00:21:22.597]
as well to keep that same formatting
[00:21:25.038]
and to make sure your users always have access
[00:21:27.317]
to these different tools that definitely come in handy
[00:21:30.189]
as they're starting to kind of run
[00:21:32.577]
through their research
[00:21:35.357]
One final feature, I'll point out is our Explorer
[00:21:37.680]
panel, you'll find this on all of our entries
[00:21:39.699]
as well. So this is going to help move
[00:21:41.900]
their research forward. They can start to click through
[00:21:44.180]
more articles like this one or
[00:21:46.528]
you'll see. We do include related topics here.
[00:21:48.739]
So maybe if we want to take a look at the author now, as
[00:21:50.900]
opposed to just the work,
[00:21:53.140]
we can certainly do that. Or maybe we want to take a look
[00:21:55.528]
at the movie. Maybe we want to kind
[00:21:57.689]
of compare that to the book or maybe
[00:21:59.969]
we're working through something like that. We can also take
[00:22:02.130]
a look at that right here on this platform
[00:22:08.278]
I'm going to click back to the home page. I still
[00:22:10.400]
haven't seen any questions pull forward.
[00:22:13.209]
but I do want to ask, we have about
[00:22:15.259]
five minutes and I do have some wrap up information
[00:22:17.837]
to give you but I do want to make sure
[00:22:20.048]
everyone knows. If you have questions, type
[00:22:22.199]
those into the Q and A. And I'll be able to answer
[00:22:24.239]
them. So let me switch back here
[00:22:28.439]
to my slides and again
[00:22:30.920]
if anyone has questions go ahead and type them in. But
[00:22:33.160]
I do have some contact info for
[00:22:35.180]
you. So moving forward, if you want to learn more,
[00:22:37.357]
um if you want to learn about one of the specific
[00:22:39.577]
literature resources as opposed to the cross
[00:22:41.660]
search or maybe you just want to dive deeper into the cross
[00:22:43.788]
search, you have access to a customer
[00:22:45.959]
success manager through who can really help
[00:22:48.038]
you out with that. They worked with Les
[00:22:50.357]
and with schools across the nation. So they have
[00:22:52.380]
a lot of great best practices that can
[00:22:54.528]
help you.
[00:22:57.130]
really target exactly how you want to
[00:22:59.150]
use this resource. If you don't know who
[00:23:01.199]
your customer success manager is, you can
[00:23:03.278]
just send a quick email to gil at customer success
[00:23:06.259]
at dot com. You're going to be forwarded to
[00:23:08.269]
the correct individual who can help you?
[00:23:10.587]
You also of course have access to your wonderful,
[00:23:12.930]
Sales consultant. So if you want to discuss
[00:23:15.959]
accessing any of the different Gale literature
[00:23:18.317]
resources, feel free to
[00:23:20.660]
reach out to them. If you don't know who your sales consultant
[00:23:23.009]
is, you can just go to support the
[00:23:25.140]
dot com forward slash
[00:23:26.689]
rainer and you'll be able to find that individual
[00:23:30.058]
and you'll also have access to a support site.
[00:23:32.097]
So I mentioned at the very beginning of this session,
[00:23:34.439]
if you're looking for webinars or other training
[00:23:36.719]
tools related to any of your gale literature
[00:23:38.930]
resources, you're going to find them on our
[00:23:40.959]
support site which is support dot
[00:23:43.058]
Gale dot com. We also have
[00:23:45.344]
Pre created tips sheets, resource guides.
[00:23:48.005]
if you're at a school we have have
[00:23:50.015]
lesson plans, activities, all that
[00:23:52.074]
good stuff. posters flyers,
[00:23:54.462]
you'll find all of that on our support site, which
[00:23:56.535]
again is support deck deal dot com. So if you're looking
[00:23:58.824]
to promote this resource,
[00:24:00.923]
don't reinvent the wheel, go to that support
[00:24:03.324]
site. Most likely we have things created
[00:24:05.403]
for you
[00:24:06.719]
and I do have a training survey.
[00:24:09.140]
If you have the time to take it, it's going to pop
[00:24:11.278]
up on your browser when we close out
[00:24:13.410]
of the session today, but I've also put it here as
[00:24:15.577]
a QR code, so if you have your phone handy,
[00:24:17.650]
feel free to scan that and fill that out
[00:24:19.680]
for us. it's always appreciated.
[00:24:21.817]
So we can make sure we're covering exactly
[00:24:24.077]
what you're looking for when we do run these sessions.
[00:24:28.400]
now. I haven't seen any other
[00:24:30.558]
questions come in any questions at all,
[00:24:32.930]
so I'm going to go ahead and end the session today
[00:24:35.219]
and hopefully we'll see you on sessions
[00:24:37.298]
in the future and please enjoy the rest
[00:24:39.347]
of your day.
