Duration: 30 Minutes
[00:00:12.000]
Welcome to today's training for TexShare. Today's session is Gale ebooks resource refresher.
[00:00:18.000]
We will be walking through your Gale ebooks collection that you have available from Techshare. And we will be discussing some of the content, new content, new collections that you have available, but also this is a refresher.
[00:00:33.000]
So we will be taking a look at some of the search options just to refresh. Your memory and how those work within the resource.
[00:00:44.000]
And I will talk to you about specific content and then of course great tools and features that you have available.
[00:00:45.000]
Within your Gale ebooks platform. My name is Tammy Burke. I am a Gale Senior Trainer and I am excited to talk to you about all of the content that you have available in your Gale ebooks collection from Techshire.
[00:01:06.000]
And if you have any questions, anytime throughout today's training, please feel free to use that Q&A box.
[00:01:12.000]
I will be monitoring it throughout today's session. Our brief agenda. We will start with discussing access to TexShare resources and an overview of Gale ebooks.
[00:01:25.000]
And then we will spend the majority of our time searching and browsing through content, tools, features, and discussing those workflow tools.
[00:01:32.000]
And he questions that you have, I encourage you to ask any time throughout the session, but after the session I will stay on the line if there's any additional questions.
[00:01:41.000]
And also you'll receive a follow-up email in 24 h where you'll have my email address so if you have any questions after the fact, please feel free to reach out to me and I'll help you as best I can.
[00:01:48.000]
They'll also leave you with at the end of our session today where you can go for additional training materials including where you can find your Mark records to your new ebooks that were added.
[00:01:58.000]
So I will share that with you at the end of the session today. And then also where you can go for additional support.
[00:02:07.000]
So you have great folks at Gale, your customer success managers, and they are there to support you and all things scale.
[00:02:13.000]
So please feel free to reach out to them and I will share with you how you can connect with them directly.
[00:02:24.000]
Or if you just like a general email, I can supply you with both of those today.
[00:02:30.000]
So to access your TexShare resources, you can go directly through the gale support site. And you can see the link here.
[00:02:36.000]
It's forward slash text share and when you access that you will look for your library site. So there'll be a drop-down menu, you can enter in your library site, your library name, and or your your academic library.
[00:02:47.000]
Put that information in or use that drop-down menu that search assist is there and we that will help you find your location and once you do find your location what you will find there, let me go back.
[00:03:07.000]
Sorry, let me go back again here. What you will find there is. You'll be able to select.
[00:03:15.000]
Your site but then it will take you to all of your direct URLs and I will share that with you today at the end of today's session.
[00:03:23.000]
So it will share with you all your direct URLs and that's also where you'll go to find all of your upcoming training sessions and the recording trainings will be there.
[00:03:32.000]
There's marketing materials. I'll cover more of this at the end of today's session but just know that's how you if you're looking for your direct URLs to all of your text share resources for your specific library site.
[00:03:43.000]
This is the route you will want to take. And this link is also included in our follow-up email.
[00:03:49.000]
So you'll have it in the follow-up email that you'll receive in about 24 h.
[00:03:55.000]
So let's talk a little bit about Gale ebooks before we jump into the resource itself.
[00:04:01.000]
So, Gale ebooks are available, 24 7. There's no check-in and check out.
[00:04:07.000]
You have unlimited simultaneous access so there's no holds that are needed or returns. You can have any time anywhere your user can access the internet, they can access your Gale ebooks.
[00:04:19.000]
They just have to go to your library site and access that information. Our resources are mobile responsive, including our Gale ebooks.
[00:04:27.000]
So if they're on their cell phone, they can still receive all of that information. It does look a little different than if you were on your laptop.
[00:04:30.000]
Or on your a larger computer screen, but all the tools are still there. There in that upper right hand corner you'll see a more.
[00:04:41.000]
Or some people call it a hamburger button. You'll see that and once you select it from your cell phone, you'll see that and once you select it from your cell phone, you'll see that, and once you select it from your cell phone, you'll have all of the same information or same access points, tools, features that you need to access this resource.
[00:04:58.000]
There are unlimited downloads also available with your ebooks. And I'll talk to you about downloads when I can model it for you within product, but it is unlimited downloads.
[00:05:08.000]
The search I absolutely love and Gale ebooks because because it is a very intuitive search and browse feature.
[00:05:10.000]
I'm going to share with you some different search options and talk to you about how you can browse through those search results.
[00:05:17.000]
And filter that information down. We do also have topic finder available within Gale ebooks. It is a great search option.
[00:05:24.000]
It's visual, it's interactive, and a lot of our users prefer to use Topic Finder.
[00:05:36.000]
You can translate the text once you're at the document level. You can translate the text into over 40 languages.
[00:05:39.000]
We also have other tools to support accessibility such as the listen feature. You can also translate the platform or the resource itself.
[00:05:54.000]
So we have a few different options there, but understanding that here you have an e-book available to your users that can be translated into 40 languages.
[00:06:00.000]
So we are meeting our researchers where they where they are and providing them with the tools they need to be.
[00:06:12.000]
We also have as I mentioned the listen feature or text to speech and also you can download and listen to the text to speech or the text being read aloud to you later as an MP 3.
[00:06:25.000]
So all of those features are available. Underneath that listen button. We're also integrated with Google and Microsoft so your users can send information directly to their Google.
[00:06:36.000]
Google Drive or Microsoft Onedrive and also with learning management systems. So if you're using D 2L or canvas I know are used a lot at the academic level or another learning management system, your Gale resources are integrated with those learning management systems.
[00:06:55.000]
So with that, let's jump in. I want to spend the majority of our time today within the resource itself.
[00:07:01.000]
So let me share with you.
[00:07:06.000]
Gale ebooks. So. So Gale ebooks one I'm accessing and I'm accessing through the TexShare location.
[00:07:08.000]
You may have additional titles. There are 88 titles here. Through texture, but chances are if you're a public library academic library, you're going to have even more gale ebooks available on your e-books platform.
[00:07:28.000]
But they have provided you with a great collection of information here. The most recent were added in April. There's 16 more titles were added and they are focusing on library science.
[00:07:39.000]
So those were new and then in November of last year, 74 titles were added. So you have a nice collection of ebooks available and I want to talk to you about some different search options and then we'll talk about when we see those results, some best practices, some ways that your users can utilize that content that they're seeing on the page.
[00:08:03.000]
And like I mentioned, I mentioned downloads and what that would look like. So. Let's take a look at your collection here.
[00:08:10.000]
And I do want to talk about a few things before I dive down here a little deeper. We do, I mentioned the translating the resource itself or the platform.
[00:08:19.000]
That's up here in the upper right where you wherever you see the translate icon, you'll have that ability to translate and this one happens to be the translation that's available for the platform itself.
[00:08:29.000]
Or the resource itself. So all these great navigational tools if I were to need to translate these to say Spanish I would want to use this tool up at the top and we are at 34 languages here for those navigational tools to translate.
[00:08:40.000]
I am signed in. I have the ability to sign in with Google or Microsoft and I did sign in.
[00:08:51.000]
As using Google today and it's really easy once I am signed in and it's a best practice especially if in your public library you have any students coming in that are using your shared computers or users.
[00:09:00.000]
And it's but I say students because a lot of students use their Google Drive and send information directly from the resources into their Google Drive and we want to make sure that they log out and leave or close their session so that they're not accidentally sending information to someone else's Google Drive.
[00:09:24.000]
This we see more in the K 12 setting, but you also have students coming into your libraries at the academic and public libraries.
[00:09:33.000]
And I just wanted to make you all aware of that feature. And that best practice that we have discovered along the way meets a little bit of highlighting there.
[00:09:43.000]
So looking at the the homepage you do have basic search in advance search. Finder is found here under advanced search and again I'll talk to you more about that in a moment but I want to talk to you about these collections.
[00:09:54.000]
Because a lot of our users will come right in and look into one of the collections. So on the left hand side we have a list of collections that were created here.
[00:10:08.000]
They're automatically created by Gale and the e-books are organized into each of these categories.
[00:10:16.000]
What you can do, and this is a this is we have great support materials available on what I'm about to share next, but you can create your own collections.
[00:10:22.000]
If let's say you're not really interested in this technology collection, there's 3 titles there and maybe you want to take those titles and put them into maybe they some of them fit into science or maybe some of them fit into library science, you can do that.
[00:10:41.000]
What you can do is you can disable this collection that Gales created for you. It'll still exist.
[00:10:47.000]
It'll just be hidden. And then you can add those titles somewhere else into any of the other collections.
[00:10:53.000]
You can also make your very own collections. So that's always a great feature to have. Where you can since we have 13 science titles maybe you're looking at alternative energy and you just want a collection on alternative energy.
[00:11:09.000]
That's something that you can do. You do need to be the the admin and have those admin credentials.
[00:11:15.000]
And again, I have support materials that talk to you about this. But your Gale customer success managers can help with that process to get you to where you need to be to find those admin credentials if you don't have them handy.
[00:11:26.000]
But I just want to point out that that is an option available, not something we're spending time on today, but just a feature within the resource itself.
[00:11:34.000]
As I scroll down the page, you'll see that we have multiple collections, again, already organized for us.
[00:11:41.000]
Available. And what I can do is I can simply, and let's use library science as an example.
[00:11:49.000]
Click into that collection.
[00:11:52.000]
A lot of our users prefer this, form of browsing where they can click into a collection and then select one of the titles.
[00:12:01.000]
So if I'm interested in libraries that learn. I select it and what will happen is it takes me into that first section.
[00:12:09.000]
I'm going to show you the table of contents up here. It takes me into that first section within the e-book.
[00:12:17.000]
So it jumps over. All of this information, the copyright page, the table of contents, which is right here that I'm looking at, and it jumps me right into the content, which is fantastic.
[00:12:25.000]
So we are right where we need to be and we can continue to explore further. So if your users select a cover of a book of an e-book they will be taken to that first section.
[00:12:39.000]
Within that e-book. Let me go back out.
[00:12:49.000]
Now, let's say let's start with the basics and start with doing a basic search.
[00:12:54.000]
So I'm going to go back out to my homepage. And I'm going to do a basic search.
[00:12:59.000]
So let's say our users sit down. I shared with you one browse format. We're going to come back to searching within a collection.
[00:13:05.000]
But I wanted to show you if you were browsing that's the route you could take if you're doing a search there's a couple different options one of them is a basic search and if I were to do a basic search on say Texas
[00:13:18.000]
I just put it in that basic search bar and my results which I have over 5,000 results available. Are all listed here.
[00:13:28.000]
You do also have some K 5 titles, so that's why I'm seeing this Texas in history available.
[00:13:35.000]
So you do have some K 5. Collection of titles available for those of our public library. Librarians that are on the line today.
[00:13:44.000]
What I would want to do at this point since I did such a broad search is I would want to filter down my results.
[00:13:50.000]
And I have a lot of options here. I can filter by publication date. Document type publication title.
[00:13:57.000]
I have publication languages, so if I happen to have any language, any e-books that were specifically in another language that were purchased by TexShare, I would see those listed here.
[00:14:10.000]
I also have guided reading levels. And AR are accelerated reader levels available so I can filter down by that if I wanted to.
[00:14:22.000]
And again, remember that K 5 collection, it's kindergarten through fifth grade. So I'm we will see those lower levels there.
[00:14:29.000]
I have interest level. So those K 3 books are coming up. I have Lexile codes and subjects and content level and also search within.
[00:14:39.000]
So all of these features are available. I like to use subjects a lot when I'm talking about ebooks.
[00:14:44.000]
So if I'm talking about Texas and I'm specifically interested in women writers, I can quickly click on that subject and it'll filter down those 5,000 results to 64.
[00:14:59.000]
At this point, maybe I want to search within and I want to dive in a little deeper and I want to look for a specific author.
[00:15:03.000]
I can use that search within option. So this is a great way to filter down all of that content, those 5,000 search results very quickly by using the filter your results box.
[00:15:21.000]
Alright, another feature that's available, and let me filter this down. Let me try. I'm gonna select another subject.
[00:15:28.000]
Let's do American, no women poets. Okay. I can export my results. Now the reason why I filtered it down further is because 11 is better than 5,000 by far, but I have this in my contextual toolbar.
[00:15:40.000]
You'll see here I have the ability to export my results. And what it'll do is it'll give me a spreadsheet.
[00:15:51.000]
So I can choose my range if I didn't want all of, you know, I had 5,000 before, if I didn't want that you can see my max and range is at 10,000.
[00:16:02.000]
I can make that a smaller number but here I wanted specifically to have the information that I was looking for so you using my filters, I know that these 11 results are something I'm interested in exporting and you have the options here to export to Google Onedrive, download or email.
[00:16:20.000]
And it would give you, it will give you that list of results. In that export file. So if you were doing research and you wanted that to keep that information, or you are, you know, at the academic level and this is something that you need for a project or maybe you're you're working at more of a graduate level and you need those results.
[00:16:39.000]
It's really helpful tool to have. I know our academic librarians were very excited about that.
[00:16:41.000]
Feature that's available here for their researchers. And their instructors and faculty members. You utilize that tool also.
[00:16:52.000]
Okay, so that's how we do a basic search and how we can filter down our results. So I did a basic search on Texas.
[00:17:01.000]
I filtered down my results. Here is what I have in return. Let's say I wanted to share that information.
[00:17:08.000]
I have the option to use the get link tool. Get link provides a persistent URL back to any spot within the resource and it lives in my contextual toolbar here at the top.
[00:17:19.000]
So if I use the get link tool. And I'm doing a maybe I'm doing a focus in my library on Texas, women specifically women, female poets, then I can share this information using that get link tool and my users will be taken directly to this spot with all of these titles.
[00:17:40.000]
Just an idea of how you can utilize some of those tools. And again, this is a refresher.
[00:17:44.000]
So just pointing out some of those favorite tools that are utilized within the resource and some new ones like the export the results.
[00:17:54.000]
Let's go back to that homepage. We did a basic search. This time I want to do a search within a collection.
[00:17:55.000]
So if I were going to our science collection, My basic search bar is now changed. Once I click into one of those collections, it has changed to search within this specific collection.
[00:18:16.000]
So I shared with you what it looks like when you click on one of the covers. Now I have the ability to just search within this collection.
[00:18:24.000]
So here's a way to combine that browse of browsing through our collections and looking at the covers to also searching through just that collection.
[00:18:34.000]
Let me know if you have any questions along the way. I do have that Q&A backs open.
[00:18:36.000]
So if I wanted to do a search within this collection, let's say I want to do a search on space.
[00:18:48.000]
Now my search results look similar to what I did when I did my basic search. But if you notice, I have 407 results, so I don't have that 5,000 number.
[00:18:57.000]
That basic search. I love the basic search bar because I always think about if I had all these print books in front of me, how would I find this content quickly?
[00:19:06.000]
And you can find it so quickly within Gale ebooks just by doing that basic search and then using those filters to find exactly what you're looking for.
[00:19:16.000]
So keep that in mind. As you're talking to your users that are coming into your library. So when I looked down at my results, I have 407 different results available here.
[00:19:26.000]
A lot on space. It was very interested to see mathematics, the mathematics e-book pop up here when we're talking about space and I was reading some of the summaries because if you look you get a bit of a you get the title you get the publication information, how many pages it is.
[00:19:38.000]
What type of document type. It's this happens to be a topic overview. And then we have a bit of a summary here.
[00:19:49.000]
We also have the content levels listed here. Now our content levels are ones through 5. Ones and twos, let's make it simple.
[00:19:59.000]
If you remember a content level 3 is middle school. Everything below that is elementary. Everything above that is high school, to undergrad and graduate level.
[00:20:03.000]
So if you remember level threes middle school that'll make it really easy for you. And you can see here what we have in our search results.
[00:20:17.000]
So we do have to have some middle school titles, but also some level, level 5, which is going to be the top of that.
[00:20:20.000]
List, which is going to be that upper high school undergrad graduate level. In the Lexel measures are listed on, on some of these titles also you're seeing in our results.
[00:20:35.000]
So I did a clicked into the collection. Of science and I did a search within for space. Now I do want to use my subjects again because I specifically want to find information on astronomy.
[00:20:53.000]
Now my results again, I have my title, I have my cover. If I select the title here, so if I select Saturn, It is going to take me to That section, this is there are 6 pages I can see in my publication information, that section within the e-book.
[00:21:13.000]
Once I get to this document level, I have all my great tools available here. Now, if this, since this is a refresher, I'm just going to touch into them real quick, we do have the translate feature which translates our text into over 40 languages.
[00:21:20.000]
The ability to decrease or increase the font size. Our display options where I have the ability to change the font including open dyslexic.
[00:21:37.000]
Change the color behind the text. And also increase the line letter and word spacing. The nice thing is with both of our increasing the font size and also our display options, once I set those up on my first document here, they will stay with me throughout this session.
[00:21:56.000]
So they stay with me. I don't have to set it up again. Every time I go into a document.
[00:22:02.000]
Now if I want to go back to my default settings, I just open up display options again and in the bottom left hand corner it has back to default settings.
[00:22:11.000]
The last feature I want to point out to of our tools to support accessibility is the Listen feature. You open that up, you can listen to the text being read aloud to you.
[00:22:21.000]
There are some additional features available under the little gear here where you can turn on. Enhanced text visibility.
[00:22:29.000]
Let me share that with you. So I just clicked on the gear. It opened my settings box.
[00:22:33.000]
I'm not going to walk through all of this. It's very self-explanatory there and intuitive but this one I always like to point out because not everyone knows what it is. Enhanced text visibility.
[00:22:46.000]
I turn that on. I now click the play button. And it pulls out the text onto the page.
[00:22:54.000]
So it's highlighting the sentence and the word 2 different colors there and I again open my listen button.
[00:23:01.000]
Click on the settings gear and turned on the enhanced text visibility. This is another feature that will stay with you throughout your session.
[00:23:09.000]
So just like our font size and display options, if I turn on the enhanced text visibility, which is right here.
[00:23:18.000]
In the center of that page, then it will stick with me throughout my session. I'm going to turn that off now.
[00:23:26.000]
Then here is where I have the option to download as an MP 3 which I had mentioned in our PowerPoint.
[00:23:33.000]
I'm gonna close that player. I also have quicksand options. I want to keep this article.
[00:23:38.000]
I can quickly send it to Google Microsoft email download or print. I also have those in my contextual toolbar.
[00:23:45.000]
What also I'm seeing in my contextual toolbar is the table of contents, which I had pointed out to you already.
[00:23:51.000]
But this is a great way to quickly jump to other areas within this ebook.
[00:23:58.000]
Another feature is book view. Let me talk to you about book views. It's one of my favorites.
[00:24:05.000]
So book view is exactly that. This is a PDF of the book. I can make it whole screen.
[00:24:10.000]
You can see in the toolbar here I have some options. Make it whole screen. I can make a double page if I select that.
[00:24:11.000]
And here is this is the the PDF version or the e-book version of the actual print e-book or print book.
[00:24:26.000]
The ebook version. Let me zoom in. I can zoom in. And I can drag this text so if I prefer my e-reader because this is available remember we're mobile responsive so if I were on my e-reader and this is a tool I'd like to use I want to see it the actual book itself, but I still like this digital format, then I have that option available.
[00:24:46.000]
I also have the ability to download and print this information off. If I download or print it's going to give me that PDF.
[00:24:52.000]
So here's that same. Article that we have and it has captured 4 pages. This was something I grabbed earlier for you all as an example to save us time.
[00:25:05.000]
So this is if I were to download this is what I would have available to me and then if I were to print I can choose the pages that I want.
[00:25:21.000]
It will give me a print preview first. So again, those same pages. And I have it set to black and white, but if I wanted to print it in color, I could.
[00:25:28.000]
So again, remember, unlimited downloads are available. One thing I want to share with you, if I go back to Text View.
[00:25:37.000]
And then select print. I get this version. So something to keep in mind. If you would really like exactly how it looks as that PDF.
[00:25:50.000]
You can go into bookview and then click print. Where this gives me more of kind of that text view.
[00:25:54.000]
Although the differences is the download will. I better double check this because it used to give me Just the e-book versions.
[00:26:07.000]
Let me see if I can open that up real quick and double check. Yeah. So your download will still be only this format.
[00:26:15.000]
But print! Is either the more of the text view that we're seeing here or if I want to print the book view, I have to be in book view to print the book view.
[00:26:26.000]
Makes sense, right? Okay, let's go back to text view. One more feature I want to point out is you have this explore panel.
[00:26:33.000]
The Explorer Paner is great for additional supplemental information so it makes suggestions based on the article your honor the document you're on you will have additional suggestions to information that's related to this.
[00:26:46.000]
So it's a great tool for all of our users to use our researchers at any level and especially our students to find additional content that they have available.
[00:26:51.000]
Related to that subject. Okay, I talked about that. Now the last thing I want to share with you as far as search options go is topic finder.
[00:27:06.000]
Now I'm going to actually go back out to the homepage. Topic Finder lives in a couple places, but the one I want to share with you today is if I go to the homepage and click on Advanced Search.
[00:27:17.000]
This is where I'll find topic finder. If I were kicking off a search. I'll also see it below.
[00:27:24.000]
Remember that filter your results box? If I wanted to pull in my search results into Topic Finder, I could do that.
[00:27:32.000]
Let me do if I, let me show you this first. If I were doing a search on alternative medicine
[00:27:43.000]
It's a visualization of my search results. It's interactive. So if I'm looking at alternative medicine and cancer.
[00:27:51.000]
And I specifically am interested in I can drill down a little further. You can see I have 50 results on the right hand side from just one click.
[00:28:00.000]
But maybe I'm looking at the cancer diet. Maybe I'm looking at something more preventative.
[00:28:06.000]
That I might have available or here cancer prevention might be a better route to go. And then there is the cancer diet.
[00:28:17.000]
So with just a couple clicks, I am taken to an article. It's as I mentioned, it's visual, it's interactive.
[00:28:20.000]
I want to keep this information. I can quickly send it to Google Microsoft email. I can download it.
[00:28:32.000]
I can print it. Don't forget you have that book view. I want to share a link just to this article.
[00:28:38.000]
I can use the get link tool to share that information. All those options are available. They've been available for a nice long time here, but I just wanted to share that you have those available and as a reminder as a refresher how you can utilize them within your library.
[00:28:55.000]
So topic finder, again, oh, one more thing I wanted to share with you. Let me do a quick search.
[00:29:01.000]
I'm just gonna use cancer diet as an example.
[00:29:06.000]
Over here below once you do a basic search or even if you search within a collection as soon as you get to this screen here and you have your filter your results.
[00:29:16.000]
This is another option to access topic Finder. Here, if you use it here though, it will pull in just your 76 search results.
[00:29:24.000]
So it's different than kicking off your search. This is a different route, but it's still takes you to that interactive tool, utilizing Topic Finder.
[00:29:35.000]
With your search results. So both options are available. It's completely up to your users what you like to use.
[00:29:42.000]
Okay, the last thing I want to share with you and I'm gonna jump back to the PowerPoint is our Gale support site because as I mentioned a lot of these ebooks that you now have available are newer collections as of as of April you have new titles there so if you're looking for those mark records you will find everything you need just go ahead and go to the support site again this link will
[00:30:05.000]
be available in your follow up email but if you're watching the recording you may want to copy this link down.
[00:30:12.000]
And find your library and then you'll have the ability to download your Mark records. Just go into your ebook collection and mark records will be available there.
[00:30:19.000]
And this nice thing is, is let's say you've you've already had the collection of Mark records from the November purchase.
[00:30:28.000]
Well, that's that's fantastic. Thrilled to hear that they're already available within your Cadillac.
[00:30:34.000]
But if you would like just this new collection, it's easy to do. You just select by date in the in the most recent date is there and what'll happen is the tool the support site tool will filter that down for you and only give you the mark records that you need since you already have the first grouping available.
[00:30:52.000]
Within your collection. So just an idea of how you can utilize that now, if you would like support with walking through how to do all of this. That's okay.
[00:31:04.000]
We've got you covered. Your customer success managers can help with Mark records. They can talk to you about your access points and your access managers can help with MARC records. They can talk to you about your access points and your access URLs.
[00:31:18.000]
If you would like to handle this on cross customizing your Gale ebook collection that is available. Here you can see I grabbed a screenshot of it, but if you go into the training center and filter to all of the product information that you want or that's available on Gale ebooks, you'll find that tip sheet there.
[00:31:39.000]
We have great. Trainings on the support site also. I've done one for TexShare and they live in that training center.
[00:31:42.000]
All of the training information, the support site information will be in your follow-up email, so you'll receive that.
[00:31:55.000]
You'll also find great marketing materials. So if you're looking to promote these resources that you have from text share, I'm specifically the one we talked about.
[00:32:00.000]
Gale ebooks. You'll find all of your marketing materials available on the Gale support site.
[00:32:09.000]
So again, if you want a one on one walkthrough of the support site. We have folks that can help you.
[00:32:15.000]
Your customer success managers. We have for our public folks, you can use this email address and these will be included in your follow-up email but those watching the recording you may want to grab a screenshot of this.
[00:32:28.000]
For academic folks this is how you can reach your customer success managers. And then again the Gale support site is available.
[00:32:36.000]
So if you'd like to pull that information on your own, all of it is there waiting for you.

[00:01:58.000]
So I will share that with you at the end of the session today. And then also where you can go for additional support.
[00:02:07.000]
So you have great folks at Gale, your customer success managers, and they are there to support you and all things scale.
[00:02:13.000]
So please feel free to reach out to them and I will share with you how you can connect with them directly.
[00:02:24.000]
Or if you just like a general email, I can supply you with both of those today.
[00:02:30.000]
So to access your TexShare resources, you can go directly through the gale support site. And you can see the link here.
[00:02:36.000]
It's forward slash text share and when you access that you will look for your library site. So there'll be a drop-down menu, you can enter in your library site, your library name, and or your your academic library.
[00:02:47.000]
Put that information in or use that drop-down menu that search assist is there and we that will help you find your location and once you do find your location what you will find there, let me go back.
[00:03:07.000]
Sorry, let me go back again here. What you will find there is. You'll be able to select.
[00:03:15.000]
Your site but then it will take you to all of your direct URLs and I will share that with you today at the end of today's session.
[00:03:23.000]
So it will share with you all your direct URLs and that's also where you'll go to find all of your upcoming training sessions and the recording trainings will be there.
[00:03:32.000]
There's marketing materials. I'll cover more of this at the end of today's session but just know that's how you if you're looking for your direct URLs to all of your text share resources for your specific library site.
[00:03:43.000]
This is the route you will want to take. And this link is also included in our follow-up email.
[00:03:49.000]
So you'll have it in the follow-up email that you'll receive in about 24 h.
[00:03:55.000]
So let's talk a little bit about Gale ebooks before we jump into the resource itself.
[00:04:01.000]
So, Gale ebooks are available, 24 7. There's no check-in and check out.
[00:04:07.000]
You have unlimited simultaneous access so there's no holds that are needed or returns. You can have any time anywhere your user can access the internet, they can access your Gale ebooks.
[00:04:19.000]
They just have to go to your library site and access that information. Our resources are mobile responsive, including our Gale ebooks.
[00:04:27.000]
So if they're on their cell phone, they can still receive all of that information. It does look a little different than if you were on your laptop.
[00:04:30.000]
Or on your a larger computer screen, but all the tools are still there. There in that upper right hand corner you'll see a more.
[00:04:41.000]
Or some people call it a hamburger button. You'll see that and once you select it from your cell phone, you'll see that and once you select it from your cell phone, you'll see that, and once you select it from your cell phone, you'll have all of the same information or same access points, tools, features that you need to access this resource.
[00:04:58.000]
There are unlimited downloads also available with your ebooks. And I'll talk to you about downloads when I can model it for you within product, but it is unlimited downloads.
[00:05:08.000]
The search I absolutely love and Gale ebooks because because it is a very intuitive search and browse feature.
[00:05:10.000]
I'm going to share with you some different search options and talk to you about how you can browse through those search results.
[00:05:17.000]
And filter that information down. We do also have topic finder available within Gale ebooks. It is a great search option.
[00:05:24.000]
It's visual, it's interactive, and a lot of our users prefer to use Topic Finder.
[00:05:36.000]
You can translate the text once you're at the document level. You can translate the text into over 40 languages.
[00:05:39.000]
We also have other tools to support accessibility such as the listen feature. You can also translate the platform or the resource itself.
[00:05:54.000]
So we have a few different options there, but understanding that here you have an e-book available to your users that can be translated into 40 languages.
[00:06:00.000]
So we are meeting our researchers where they where they are and providing them with the tools they need to be.
[00:06:12.000]
We also have as I mentioned the listen feature or text to speech and also you can download and listen to the text to speech or the text being read aloud to you later as an MP 3.
[00:06:25.000]
So all of those features are available. Underneath that listen button. We're also integrated with Google and Microsoft so your users can send information directly to their Google.
[00:06:36.000]
Google Drive or Microsoft Onedrive and also with learning management systems. So if you're using D 2L or canvas I know are used a lot at the academic level or another learning management system, your Gale resources are integrated with those learning management systems.
[00:06:55.000]
So with that, let's jump in. I want to spend the majority of our time today within the resource itself.
[00:07:01.000]
So let me share with you.
[00:07:06.000]
Gale ebooks. So. So Gale ebooks one I'm accessing and I'm accessing through the TexShare location.
[00:07:08.000]
You may have additional titles. There are 88 titles here. Through texture, but chances are if you're a public library academic library, you're going to have even more gale ebooks available on your e-books platform.
[00:07:28.000]
But they have provided you with a great collection of information here. The most recent were added in April. There's 16 more titles were added and they are focusing on library science.
[00:07:39.000]
So those were new and then in November of last year, 74 titles were added. So you have a nice collection of ebooks available and I want to talk to you about some different search options and then we'll talk about when we see those results, some best practices, some ways that your users can utilize that content that they're seeing on the page.
[00:08:03.000]
And like I mentioned, I mentioned downloads and what that would look like. So. Let's take a look at your collection here.
[00:08:10.000]
And I do want to talk about a few things before I dive down here a little deeper. We do, I mentioned the translating the resource itself or the platform.
[00:08:19.000]
That's up here in the upper right where you wherever you see the translate icon, you'll have that ability to translate and this one happens to be the translation that's available for the platform itself.
[00:08:29.000]
Or the resource itself. So all these great navigational tools if I were to need to translate these to say Spanish I would want to use this tool up at the top and we are at 34 languages here for those navigational tools to translate.
[00:08:40.000]
I am signed in. I have the ability to sign in with Google or Microsoft and I did sign in.
[00:08:51.000]
As using Google today and it's really easy once I am signed in and it's a best practice especially if in your public library you have any students coming in that are using your shared computers or users.
[00:09:00.000]
And it's but I say students because a lot of students use their Google Drive and send information directly from the resources into their Google Drive and we want to make sure that they log out and leave or close their session so that they're not accidentally sending information to someone else's Google Drive.
[00:09:24.000]
This we see more in the K 12 setting, but you also have students coming into your libraries at the academic and public libraries.
[00:09:33.000]
And I just wanted to make you all aware of that feature. And that best practice that we have discovered along the way meets a little bit of highlighting there.
[00:09:43.000]
So looking at the the homepage you do have basic search in advance search. Finder is found here under advanced search and again I'll talk to you more about that in a moment but I want to talk to you about these collections.
[00:09:54.000]
Because a lot of our users will come right in and look into one of the collections. So on the left hand side we have a list of collections that were created here.
[00:10:08.000]
They're automatically created by Gale and the e-books are organized into each of these categories.
[00:10:16.000]
What you can do, and this is a this is we have great support materials available on what I'm about to share next, but you can create your own collections.
[00:10:22.000]
If let's say you're not really interested in this technology collection, there's 3 titles there and maybe you want to take those titles and put them into maybe they some of them fit into science or maybe some of them fit into library science, you can do that.
[00:10:41.000]
What you can do is you can disable this collection that Gales created for you. It'll still exist.
[00:10:47.000]
It'll just be hidden. And then you can add those titles somewhere else into any of the other collections.
[00:10:53.000]
You can also make your very own collections. So that's always a great feature to have. Where you can since we have 13 science titles maybe you're looking at alternative energy and you just want a collection on alternative energy.
[00:11:09.000]
That's something that you can do. You do need to be the the admin and have those admin credentials.
[00:11:15.000]
And again, I have support materials that talk to you about this. But your Gale customer success managers can help with that process to get you to where you need to be to find those admin credentials if you don't have them handy.
[00:11:26.000]
But I just want to point out that that is an option available, not something we're spending time on today, but just a feature within the resource itself.
[00:11:34.000]
As I scroll down the page, you'll see that we have multiple collections, again, already organized for us.
[00:11:41.000]
Available. And what I can do is I can simply, and let's use library science as an example.
[00:11:49.000]
Click into that collection.
[00:11:52.000]
A lot of our users prefer this, form of browsing where they can click into a collection and then select one of the titles.
[00:12:01.000]
So if I'm interested in libraries that learn. I select it and what will happen is it takes me into that first section.
[00:12:09.000]
I'm going to show you the table of contents up here. It takes me into that first section within the e-book.
[00:12:17.000]
So it jumps over. All of this information, the copyright page, the table of contents, which is right here that I'm looking at, and it jumps me right into the content, which is fantastic.
[00:12:25.000]
So we are right where we need to be and we can continue to explore further. So if your users select a cover of a book of an e-book they will be taken to that first section.
[00:12:39.000]
Within that e-book. Let me go back out.
[00:12:49.000]
Now, let's say let's start with the basics and start with doing a basic search.
[00:12:54.000]
So I'm going to go back out to my homepage. And I'm going to do a basic search.
[00:12:59.000]
So let's say our users sit down. I shared with you one browse format. We're going to come back to searching within a collection.
[00:13:05.000]
But I wanted to show you if you were browsing that's the route you could take if you're doing a search there's a couple different options one of them is a basic search and if I were to do a basic search on say Texas
[00:13:18.000]
I just put it in that basic search bar and my results which I have over 5,000 results available. Are all listed here.
[00:13:28.000]
You do also have some K 5 titles, so that's why I'm seeing this Texas in history available.
[00:13:35.000]
So you do have some K 5. Collection of titles available for those of our public library. Librarians that are on the line today.
[00:13:44.000]
What I would want to do at this point since I did such a broad search is I would want to filter down my results.
[00:13:50.000]
And I have a lot of options here. I can filter by publication date. Document type publication title.
[00:13:57.000]
I have publication languages, so if I happen to have any language, any e-books that were specifically in another language that were purchased by TexShare, I would see those listed here.
[00:14:10.000]
I also have guided reading levels. And AR are accelerated reader levels available so I can filter down by that if I wanted to.
[00:14:22.000]
And again, remember that K 5 collection, it's kindergarten through fifth grade. So I'm we will see those lower levels there.
[00:14:29.000]
I have interest level. So those K 3 books are coming up. I have Lexile codes and subjects and content level and also search within.
[00:14:39.000]
So all of these features are available. I like to use subjects a lot when I'm talking about ebooks.
[00:14:44.000]
So if I'm talking about Texas and I'm specifically interested in women writers, I can quickly click on that subject and it'll filter down those 5,000 results to 64.
[00:14:59.000]
At this point, maybe I want to search within and I want to dive in a little deeper and I want to look for a specific author.
[00:15:03.000]
I can use that search within option. So this is a great way to filter down all of that content, those 5,000 search results very quickly by using the filter your results box.
[00:15:21.000]
Alright, another feature that's available, and let me filter this down. Let me try. I'm gonna select another subject.
[00:15:28.000]
Let's do American, no women poets. Okay. I can export my results. Now the reason why I filtered it down further is because 11 is better than 5,000 by far, but I have this in my contextual toolbar.
[00:15:40.000]
You'll see here I have the ability to export my results. And what it'll do is it'll give me a spreadsheet.
[00:15:51.000]
So I can choose my range if I didn't want all of, you know, I had 5,000 before, if I didn't want that you can see my max and range is at 10,000.
[00:16:02.000]
I can make that a smaller number but here I wanted specifically to have the information that I was looking for so you using my filters, I know that these 11 results are something I'm interested in exporting and you have the options here to export to Google Onedrive, download or email.
[00:16:20.000]
And it would give you, it will give you that list of results. In that export file. So if you were doing research and you wanted that to keep that information, or you are, you know, at the academic level and this is something that you need for a project or maybe you're you're working at more of a graduate level and you need those results.
[00:16:39.000]
It's really helpful tool to have. I know our academic librarians were very excited about that.
[00:16:41.000]
Feature that's available here for their researchers. And their instructors and faculty members. You utilize that tool also.
[00:16:52.000]
Okay, so that's how we do a basic search and how we can filter down our results. So I did a basic search on Texas.
[00:17:01.000]
I filtered down my results. Here is what I have in return. Let's say I wanted to share that information.
[00:17:08.000]
I have the option to use the get link tool. Get link provides a persistent URL back to any spot within the resource and it lives in my contextual toolbar here at the top.
[00:17:19.000]
So if I use the get link tool. And I'm doing a maybe I'm doing a focus in my library on Texas, women specifically women, female poets, then I can share this information using that get link tool and my users will be taken directly to this spot with all of these titles.
[00:17:40.000]
Just an idea of how you can utilize some of those tools. And again, this is a refresher.
[00:17:44.000]
So just pointing out some of those favorite tools that are utilized within the resource and some new ones like the export the results.
[00:17:54.000]
Let's go back to that homepage. We did a basic search. This time I want to do a search within a collection.
[00:17:55.000]
So if I were going to our science collection, My basic search bar is now changed. Once I click into one of those collections, it has changed to search within this specific collection.
[00:18:16.000]
So I shared with you what it looks like when you click on one of the covers. Now I have the ability to just search within this collection.
[00:18:24.000]
So here's a way to combine that browse of browsing through our collections and looking at the covers to also searching through just that collection.
[00:18:34.000]
Let me know if you have any questions along the way. I do have that Q&A backs open.
[00:18:36.000]
So if I wanted to do a search within this collection, let's say I want to do a search on space.
[00:18:48.000]
Now my search results look similar to what I did when I did my basic search. But if you notice, I have 407 results, so I don't have that 5,000 number.
[00:18:57.000]
That basic search. I love the basic search bar because I always think about if I had all these print books in front of me, how would I find this content quickly?
[00:19:06.000]
And you can find it so quickly within Gale ebooks just by doing that basic search and then using those filters to find exactly what you're looking for.
[00:19:16.000]
So keep that in mind. As you're talking to your users that are coming into your library. So when I looked down at my results, I have 407 different results available here.
[00:19:26.000]
A lot on space. It was very interested to see mathematics, the mathematics e-book pop up here when we're talking about space and I was reading some of the summaries because if you look you get a bit of a you get the title you get the publication information, how many pages it is.
[00:19:38.000]
What type of document type. It's this happens to be a topic overview. And then we have a bit of a summary here.
[00:19:49.000]
We also have the content levels listed here. Now our content levels are ones through 5. Ones and twos, let's make it simple.
[00:19:59.000]
If you remember a content level 3 is middle school. Everything below that is elementary. Everything above that is high school, to undergrad and graduate level.
[00:20:03.000]
So if you remember level threes middle school that'll make it really easy for you. And you can see here what we have in our search results.
[00:20:17.000]
So we do have to have some middle school titles, but also some level, level 5, which is going to be the top of that.
[00:20:20.000]
List, which is going to be that upper high school undergrad graduate level. In the Lexel measures are listed on, on some of these titles also you're seeing in our results.
[00:20:35.000]
So I did a clicked into the collection. Of science and I did a search within for space. Now I do want to use my subjects again because I specifically want to find information on astronomy.
[00:20:53.000]
Now my results again, I have my title, I have my cover. If I select the title here, so if I select Saturn, It is going to take me to That section, this is there are 6 pages I can see in my publication information, that section within the e-book.
[00:21:13.000]
Once I get to this document level, I have all my great tools available here. Now, if this, since this is a refresher, I'm just going to touch into them real quick, we do have the translate feature which translates our text into over 40 languages.
[00:21:20.000]
The ability to decrease or increase the font size. Our display options where I have the ability to change the font including open dyslexic.
[00:21:37.000]
Change the color behind the text. And also increase the line letter and word spacing. The nice thing is with both of our increasing the font size and also our display options, once I set those up on my first document here, they will stay with me throughout this session.
[00:21:56.000]
So they stay with me. I don't have to set it up again. Every time I go into a document.
[00:22:02.000]
Now if I want to go back to my default settings, I just open up display options again and in the bottom left hand corner it has back to default settings.
[00:22:11.000]
The last feature I want to point out to of our tools to support accessibility is the Listen feature. You open that up, you can listen to the text being read aloud to you.
[00:22:21.000]
There are some additional features available under the little gear here where you can turn on. Enhanced text visibility.
[00:22:29.000]
Let me share that with you. So I just clicked on the gear. It opened my settings box.
[00:22:33.000]
I'm not going to walk through all of this. It's very self-explanatory there and intuitive but this one I always like to point out because not everyone knows what it is. Enhanced text visibility.
[00:22:46.000]
I turn that on. I now click the play button. And it pulls out the text onto the page.
[00:22:54.000]
So it's highlighting the sentence and the word 2 different colors there and I again open my listen button.
[00:23:01.000]
Click on the settings gear and turned on the enhanced text visibility. This is another feature that will stay with you throughout your session.
[00:23:09.000]
So just like our font size and display options, if I turn on the enhanced text visibility, which is right here.
[00:23:18.000]
In the center of that page, then it will stick with me throughout my session. I'm going to turn that off now.
[00:23:26.000]
Then here is where I have the option to download as an MP 3 which I had mentioned in our PowerPoint.
[00:23:33.000]
I'm gonna close that player. I also have quicksand options. I want to keep this article.
[00:23:38.000]
I can quickly send it to Google Microsoft email download or print. I also have those in my contextual toolbar.
[00:23:45.000]
What also I'm seeing in my contextual toolbar is the table of contents, which I had pointed out to you already.
[00:23:51.000]
But this is a great way to quickly jump to other areas within this ebook.
[00:23:58.000]
Another feature is book view. Let me talk to you about book views. It's one of my favorites.
[00:24:05.000]
So book view is exactly that. This is a PDF of the book. I can make it whole screen.
[00:24:10.000]
You can see in the toolbar here I have some options. Make it whole screen. I can make a double page if I select that.
[00:24:11.000]
And here is this is the the PDF version or the e-book version of the actual print e-book or print book.
[00:24:26.000]
The ebook version. Let me zoom in. I can zoom in. And I can drag this text so if I prefer my e-reader because this is available remember we're mobile responsive so if I were on my e-reader and this is a tool I'd like to use I want to see it the actual book itself, but I still like this digital format, then I have that option available.
[00:24:46.000]
I also have the ability to download and print this information off. If I download or print it's going to give me that PDF.
[00:24:52.000]
So here's that same. Article that we have and it has captured 4 pages. This was something I grabbed earlier for you all as an example to save us time.
[00:25:05.000]
So this is if I were to download this is what I would have available to me and then if I were to print I can choose the pages that I want.
[00:25:21.000]
It will give me a print preview first. So again, those same pages. And I have it set to black and white, but if I wanted to print it in color, I could.
[00:25:28.000]
So again, remember, unlimited downloads are available. One thing I want to share with you, if I go back to Text View.
[00:25:37.000]
And then select print. I get this version. So something to keep in mind. If you would really like exactly how it looks as that PDF.
[00:25:50.000]
You can go into bookview and then click print. Where this gives me more of kind of that text view.
[00:25:54.000]
Although the differences is the download will. I better double check this because it used to give me Just the e-book versions.
[00:26:07.000]
Let me see if I can open that up real quick and double check. Yeah. So your download will still be only this format.
[00:26:15.000]
But print! Is either the more of the text view that we're seeing here or if I want to print the book view, I have to be in book view to print the book view.
[00:26:26.000]
Makes sense, right? Okay, let's go back to text view. One more feature I want to point out is you have this explore panel.
[00:26:33.000]
The Explorer Paner is great for additional supplemental information so it makes suggestions based on the article your honor the document you're on you will have additional suggestions to information that's related to this.
[00:26:46.000]
So it's a great tool for all of our users to use our researchers at any level and especially our students to find additional content that they have available.
[00:26:51.000]
Related to that subject. Okay, I talked about that. Now the last thing I want to share with you as far as search options go is topic finder.
[00:27:06.000]
Now I'm going to actually go back out to the homepage. Topic Finder lives in a couple places, but the one I want to share with you today is if I go to the homepage and click on Advanced Search.
[00:27:17.000]
This is where I'll find topic finder. If I were kicking off a search. I'll also see it below.
[00:27:24.000]
Remember that filter your results box? If I wanted to pull in my search results into Topic Finder, I could do that.
[00:27:32.000]
Let me do if I, let me show you this first. If I were doing a search on alternative medicine
[00:27:43.000]
It's a visualization of my search results. It's interactive. So if I'm looking at alternative medicine and cancer.
[00:27:51.000]
And I specifically am interested in I can drill down a little further. You can see I have 50 results on the right hand side from just one click.
[00:28:00.000]
But maybe I'm looking at the cancer diet. Maybe I'm looking at something more preventative.
[00:28:06.000]
That I might have available or here cancer prevention might be a better route to go. And then there is the cancer diet.
[00:28:17.000]
So with just a couple clicks, I am taken to an article. It's as I mentioned, it's visual, it's interactive.
[00:28:20.000]
I want to keep this information. I can quickly send it to Google Microsoft email. I can download it.
[00:28:32.000]
I can print it. Don't forget you have that book view. I want to share a link just to this article.
[00:28:38.000]
I can use the get link tool to share that information. All those options are available. They've been available for a nice long time here, but I just wanted to share that you have those available and as a reminder as a refresher how you can utilize them within your library.
[00:28:55.000]
So topic finder, again, oh, one more thing I wanted to share with you. Let me do a quick search.
[00:29:01.000]
I'm just gonna use cancer diet as an example.
[00:29:06.000]
Over here below once you do a basic search or even if you search within a collection as soon as you get to this screen here and you have your filter your results.
[00:29:16.000]
This is another option to access topic Finder. Here, if you use it here though, it will pull in just your 76 search results.
[00:29:24.000]
So it's different than kicking off your search. This is a different route, but it's still takes you to that interactive tool, utilizing Topic Finder.
[00:29:35.000]
With your search results. So both options are available. It's completely up to your users what you like to use.
[00:29:42.000]
Okay, the last thing I want to share with you and I'm gonna jump back to the PowerPoint is our Gale support site because as I mentioned a lot of these ebooks that you now have available are newer collections as of as of April you have new titles there so if you're looking for those mark records you will find everything you need just go ahead and go to the support site again this link will
[00:30:05.000]
be available in your follow up email but if you're watching the recording you may want to copy this link down.
[00:30:12.000]
And find your library and then you'll have the ability to download your Mark records. Just go into your ebook collection and mark records will be available there.
[00:30:19.000]
And this nice thing is, is let's say you've you've already had the collection of Mark records from the November purchase.
[00:30:28.000]
Well, that's that's fantastic. Thrilled to hear that they're already available within your Cadillac.
[00:30:34.000]
But if you would like just this new collection, it's easy to do. You just select by date in the in the most recent date is there and what'll happen is the tool the support site tool will filter that down for you and only give you the mark records that you need since you already have the first grouping available.
[00:30:52.000]
Within your collection. So just an idea of how you can utilize that now, if you would like support with walking through how to do all of this. That's okay.
[00:31:04.000]
We've got you covered. Your customer success managers can help with Mark records. They can talk to you about your access points and your access managers can help with MARC records. They can talk to you about your access points and your access URLs.
[00:31:18.000]

Here you can see I grabbed a screenshot of it, but if you go into the training center and filter to all of the product information that you want or that's available on Gale ebooks, you'll find that tip sheet there.
[00:31:39.000]
