There is more exciting news for our fans of Gale’s In Context suite. Recent enhancements rolled-out this week make it even easier for students and teachers to quickly access, use, and share content for homework and class assignments. Take a look at what’s new:
Citation Export to Google Drive – Students now have the ability to export content into Google Drive and Docs from the Citation Tools. Once the Citation Tools window is open, a Google export button is visible enabling users to easily export their information.
Hotspotter Tool – This new tool helps students make better connections from topic to topic. On the homepage, images have “hotspots” that when scrolled-over show additional content/details associated with that particular image. The hotpotter tool is currently available for featured images in Gale’s Science In Context and Biography In Context databases.
Improved Search Capabilities – An updated search algorithm provides students with even stronger periodical results that are the most relevant and current appearing in the top three listings of each category.
