Staff Update: Discovery Search, EBSCO, and Books You Loved When You Were Little(r)

Resource Snack Time: What is a Discovery Search (bit.ly/rst-discovery) - GUHSD is launching a new "Discovery Search" tool for searching across online library databases. Access this week’s Resource Snack Time to learn more about how a discovery search functions, and as always, just contact Suzanne (ssannwald@guhsd.net) for any help using online databases and finding information.

GUHSD & EBSCO Online Database Enhancements Fall 2019 - If you are a power user who uses online databases frequently with students, this is a more in-depth update for staff regarding all the updates (including the discovery search setup) that have been made to EBSCO this past fall.

Books You Loved When You Were Little(r) - You still have time to participate in this “for fun” survey. It’s been awesome to see the responses that we’ve gotten. For instance, Mr. Goodman shared a book he remembers being read aloud to him: Poems for Young Children, which was read to him by his mother. He even found it and emailed a photo! If any others out there get nostalgic and want to share photos of old favorite books to be included in library social media posts in February, you can email them to Suzanne.
