How do I save sources from my database search and include the citation?
I mostly use Ebsco Discovery Service
Answer
All database have a way to save sources if they're full text (or their citation/abstract if they aren't) and the citation is included. You need to tell it which citation style you are using.
In EDS / Ebsco Discovery Service, select items you want to save, either one at a time or add them to the folder by clicking the yellow folder button on the results page beside the items you want to save. If you leave the session, your folder will not stay, but you can create a free account on EDS and log in. The folder will then be saved.
In the right hand column you will see choices to print, email or save. After you choose one, a screen like this will appear. Be sure to choose your citation style from the pull down box on right, the full Text and PDF boxes are checked by default. If you choose print, you can save it as a PDF or print to a printer. Insert your email address, or if it's save, insert a pin drive.
