Swem upgrades to Summon 2.0

Published on

Swem Library’s “all-in-one” search tool – Summon – is now available in a new edition: Summon 2.0.

Summon 2.0 offers several improvements over the earlier edition, including:
• Improved advanced search options;
• Ability to limit results to specific disciplines, such as biology or sociology;
• Improved format for limiting results by subjects, content and publication date;
• Clearer process for marking citations;
• Easier steps for emailing or exporting citations to RefWorks and other citation tools.

We are comparing Summon 2.0 to the Ebsco Discovery Service. Please visit swem.wm.edu/databases/trials to check out Ebsco, see how it compares to Summon 2.0 and provide your feedback.
