New search functionality for the Cochrane Library

On 15 September 2012, Wiley will be introducing an improved search interface for The Cochrane Library. The Cochrane Library contains a number of databases of the highest quality evidence including ‘gold standard’ systematic reviews and cost-effectiveness studies.

Users will see major changes to the layout of search pages and will soon be able to use new search features including:
• Auto-suggest features within both basic and MeSH 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 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 at: www.thecochranelibrary.com/view/0/ccochnewsearch.html
