New look to the Cochrane Library







The Cochrane Library has a new look! However, the homepage remains the same so you won't notice anything's different until you do a search.
Users will see major changes to the layout of search pages and will be able to use new search features including:


• Auto-suggest features within both basic and MeSH (MeSH medical subject headings) search functions

• Updated display of search results and filtering options

• Ability to view search terms and results on the same page

• Ability to insert lines and add one search to one another

• Improved medical terms (MeSH) look-up feature

• Hover-over Tool Tips giving a brief explanation of the functions


More information is available online including a PowerPoint demonstration outlining the new features. And don't forget that the library offers free training sessions on the Cochrane Library and the best evidence-based resources.
