New! bX Recommender Service

Users of Find It! may have noticed a new service. It’s called bX Recommender.

Based on your search, this service will show you additional articles, e.g.  “Other people who looked at this also looked at.” Up to 3 recommendations are shown up front but if you “View More,” you can view up to 7 additional recommendations (for a total of 10). If a recommendation is available in full text, the title will be underlined and you will see a full text icon shown.
The “Save Citations” option includes EndNote and RefWorks.


 

SpringerLink package ejournals in Serials Solutions and SFX

Earlier this month, we loaded City Tech’s SpringerLink package ejournals into Serials Solutions (“Find/browse ejournals by title or subject”). Be aware that although SpringerLink indicates that it has 1900+ titles, we have access to about 1300+ titles–our ejournal set is custom for CUNY SpringerLink participants. Be aware that the icons indicating access and coverage are not reliable: if you are browsing, the icon seems to indicate partial access. Just click through to the ejournal and you often will find complete coverage.
SpringerLink is also enabled in SFX aka Find it! which means if you search other databases or Google Scholar (provided you’ve customized Google Scholar to link to NYCCT), you can link through to full text in SpringerLink.
