[CASL-L] EBSCO Search Boxes

[Hansen, Eric A]

Cross-posted; please excuse duplication. Please forward as appropriate.

Using EBSCO's Search Box Builder, I have constructed search boxes for all databases and user interfaces that iCONN licenses from EBSCO. The links to the search boxes appear on this web page:

http://www.cslib.org/iconnsitemap/staff/EBSCOsearchboxes.html

Please note the following additional information about these search boxes:


1.       Some of them include product-specific logos (e.g. Searchasaurus); if the resource is part of the EBSCOhost database suite, the search box may instead bear just the generic EBSCOhost logo.


2.       Resources searched by the "search everything" search boxes are set up to be the same as for our existing links to the same resources. For example, the EBSCOhost for High Schools search box will search the same set of databases as the corresponding EBSCOhost icon on the High School classic menu.



3.       You  will need to capture the html source code in order to paste the boxes into your web pages.



4.       Please note that each search box uses an EBSCO generic State Library customer id (custid). If you want to customize it with your own library's EBSCO customer ID, contact support at ebscohost.com<mailto:support at ebscohost.com> for that information. The search boxes will work either way; however, usage stats will only apply to your library if you replace the generic State Library customer id with your library's individual customer id from EBSCO.

 Questions can be addressed to me by e-mail at:

I hope you will find the search boxes useful.
