Library Searching Made Easier with JHsearch

The Johns Hopkins libraries are pleased to announce JHsearch, a new service that enables simultaneous searching across multiple databases.  Patrons may search QuickSets, pre-defined sets of databases in the life sciences, engineering, education, political science, art, and more, or create their own custom sets.  Search results can be saved in a “My Results” folder or to disk and can also be sent to an e-mail address.

JHsearch currently includes about 85 of the JHU Libraries’ databases; more databases and features will be added in the coming months including personalization options that will allow users to store and run search queries at time intervals of their choice.

JHsearch is available to the Hopkins community from on or off-campus and may be accessed directly at: http://jhsearch.library.jhu.edu/ or from the Web sites of any of the Johns Hopkins libraries.
