Multisearch (click to try)

If this is your first semester here at John Jay College, welcome to the Library’s homepage! If you’re a returning student or faculty member, you may have noticed some changes--chief among them is our new MultiSearch tab.This is a new “discovery” service that allows you to search across many of the Library’s databases. Because it covers so many databases, you can use it to search for almost any topic you are researching. Just type in your topic and click on the search button. Because it offers so much content, you can then narrow down your results by format (peer reviewed articles, newspaper articles, etc.) or by other limiters like publication date or subject. You can also start searching from the Advanced Search interface.

We think this is a great jumping-off point for your research but remember, if you need help refining your topic or looking for a specific subject-related database, come in and talk to a librarian or contact us from home.
