[Eril-l] Full Text Finder?

[Melissa Belvadi]

We are EDS customers who were not previously using EBSCO's
A-to-Z/Linksource service so our "migration" was very easy compared to
those who had actual data in the old system.

The new system is wonderful.

Be sure to ask for the actual "A to Z' alpha list of letters to click on,
because that's an optional widget, or at least it was when we started with
Publication Finder.

Also note that there is an option in eadmin that is off by default to
expand the "holdings" lists in Publication Finder immediately instead of
your having to click on the + to open each one. This will make sense when
you see it, but I recommend you make a note to consider that option, which
is otherwise well buried in eadmin.
