Search results can be citations, full text articles, document summaries or abstracts, and can include links to full text.
The Result List Screen has three columns:
You can hide or show the different areas by clicking the control arrows at the top of the left and right columns. Your library administrator decides whether the facets in the left column are displayed.
The Left Column displays the Current Search, Limiters, and Facets
Current Search - Click the toggle arrow to open the Current Search box. Current Search keeps track of your search terms, search options, and facets applied to your search.
Limit To – Apply limiters right from the Result List by clicking a hyperlinked limiter or checkbox. Refine your search even more by clicking the Show More link.
Facets – You can narrow by source type, subject, journal, author, and more. This feature, also known as “clustering,” is helpful if you want to discover the major subject groups for your topic without having to browse multiple pages of results, or checking individual articles to see if they are relevant.
To narrow your results, check the box for a subject term in a section of your choice. A new Result List, limited to the chosen term or terms is displayed and the list of subject terms is refreshed. For more info, see Facets.
Results Display – The articles that were found are displayed in the center of the Result List Screen. You can also access the Result Sort, Page Options, and Share drop-down menus from the Results column.
The number of Search Results in your list is displayed at the top of the middle column.
The article title link takes you to the citation information and/or the full text. Place your mouse over the Preview icon 
to view the Abstract.
The HTML Full Text link takes you directly to the full text of the article.
The PDF Full Text link takes you to a PDF version of the full text. The PDF will open in the Adobe ® Reader®.
The 
Audio Summary link prompts you to download or listen to audio summaries. (Business Book Summaries database only.)
Add to Folder – To save an article to the Folder, click the Folder icon 
to the right of the article title or inside the Article Preview that you hover over with your mouse.
Subjects – Subject Terms that are assigned to each item are displayed in the result list.
Result List Sort – Click this link to select one of the following result list sorting options: Date Newest, Date Oldest, Author, Source, or Relevance. If you are searching more than one database at the same time, only the sort options common to all the databases that you selected will be available.

Share – Click this link to view alerting, linking and bookmarking options.
Navigate through pages of your results using the hyperlinked page number and Next links at the bottom of the result list.
