This area lists the terms entered in the "Enter search criteria" area from the WebFeat home page. It also includes three links and the Results display mode.

The three links are: Print Results, Save Results, and Email Results.

Print Results:

The selected citations may be printed in a rich text format. A message appears if no citation has been selected.

Save Results:

The selected citations may be saved. This link will prompt you to a dialog box asking the format in which the citations would be saved.

Email Results:

The selected citations may be emailed. This link will prompt you to a dialog box in which some information has to be input before the email can be sent. It does not transit through your personal email account and will be sent to the address that you provide.

The Results display mode, located just above the citations listing, is by default Grouped. There are other display modes that might refine the search:

Grouped

This display mode shows all articles, books, and other media found in the databases on the basis of the words entered in the search criteria area. The Hits and Database shows the databases as links, allowing to view the first ten results found in the database. For more detailed information about a citation, click the View button.

Relevancy-ranked

This display mode selects the articles with the best relevancy to the terms entered in the Enter search criteria box. The Hits and Database box does not allow linking to any of the databases since the results are a mix of the most relevant results from all searched databases.

Sorted by title

This display mode selects the titles with the best relevancy to the terms entered in the Enter search criteria box. The Hits and Database box does not allow linking to any of the databases since the results are a mix of the most relevant results from all searched databases. The results found in this display mode might slightly differ from the results found in the Relevancy-ranked display mode.

Sorted by author

This display mode presents the same results as in the Sorted by title display mode. The authors are listed by alphabetical order. The Hits and Database box does not allow linking to any of the databases since the results are a mix of the most relevant results from all searched databases.

Sorted by date

This display mode presents the same results as in the Sorted by title display mode. The articles are ordered by most recent dates. The Hits and Database box does not allow linking to any of the databases since the results are a mix of the most relevant results from all searched databases.

Selection only

This display mode shows all the selected articles if any has been selected in any of the previous display modes. The Hits and Database box does not allow linking to any of the databases since the results are a mix of the most relevant results from all searched databases.

Clustered

This display mode presents the same results as in the Sorted by title display mode. The Hits and Database box is replaced by a Results by Topic box. In this box, the results from the citations listing are regrouped by topics to narrow down the results. They can still be further narrowed by clicking on one of the topics: the citations listing will then limit the amount of citations to the number written next to the topic.

In all Display results modes except Clustered (see above), the listing is made of as many sections as the number of databases that have been searched. The order the databases appear in the citations listing is the same as in the Hits and Database box. The name of the database appears in bold and is followed by a first set of ten citations. A button allows to view the next set of citations. The next section of the listing will present the second database listed in the Hits and Database box and its first set of ten citations, etc.

This box can be used for new search, only one category may be selected. If you wish to chose more than one category or one or more specific databases, you need to click on Advanced search, which is the Pendergraft Library WebFeat home page.

The Find related terms searches through the WebFeat Thesaurus and retrieves a list of terms related to the single word entered in the Enter search term text box.

The Hits and Database box lists all the databases searched and the number of hits in each database. The order the databases appear is the same as the order the databases appear in the citations listing area. This box might change its appearance depending on the chosen Display results mode (see no. 1.)
