When the HTML full text view is displayed, you can also return to the citation, or any PDF or linked text by clicking on the available icons. The text is displayed formatted and ready for printing. A brief citation is always included at the end of the article.

From either the citation or full text views, you can refine your search, return to the Result List, save to the folder, and print, email, or save the article.

When the PDF view is displayed, the article opens in the Adobe Acrobat Reader. To print the article, use the print capability available from the Reader. You can also return to the citation, any full text, or linked text by clicking on the available icons. From the PDF view, you can also refine your search, return to the Result List, or e-mail the article.

Linked Full Text View

EBSCOhost links to full text articles from other EBSCOhost databases or from electronic journals subscribed to through EBSCO Subscription Services and Electronic Journals Service.

When the linked full text result is displayed, you can also return to the citation, full text, or linked text by clicking on the available icons. When you click on an available hyperlink and open full text, you can refine your search, return to the Result List, and print, email or save the article.

The Folder

The folder appears to the right of the Delivery Options. The number of items in the folder is updated whenever you add or remove results. For each result, the folder icon is displayed to the far right.

To collect several articles, click the Add folder icon for the article. To add all items on a page to your folder, click Add (1-10) at the top of the Add column. Result numbers to be added will change as you page through the list of results.

As you add the articles to the folder, you can click View Folder and review which items have been added. You can then print, e-mail or save many results all at the same time. If you have signed in via My EBSCOhost, any search results that you collect in your folder will be automatically saved at the end of the session.
