WebFeat Allows Users to Search Multiple Databases

Holman Library recently launched another new product: WebFeat. Because we know WebFeat won't mean much to most of our users, we've placed a red link at the top of our library web page that says "Search All Databases Now." And basically that is what WebFeat does. A single search in WebFeat will search the databases you select. This could be all databases and includes the library catalog. Or, you might choose to search one of our subject categories ("Health, Nursing, and Occupational/Physical Therapy") or one of our class categories ("English 113"). Within WebFeat you can limit by date or full text. You can use Boolean operators to combine your search terms, and you can specifiy what kind of search you want (e.g.: title, keyword, etc.).

Like most of our databases, you will need to enter your GRCC identification number when accessing from outside of the library.
