Sampler searching… Health warning
Pros• Searches several online
resources simultaneously• Returns one list of results• Easy to use
Cons / Health Warning• Only searches about 30% of
online resources ( may not included key databases for your subject)
• Slow• Little control over your
search terms
For serious research• Find out which are the best online resources for your
research (Oxlip+ / Librarians)• Connect to each online resource separately and search
using its own interface
![Page 31: WISER Social Sciences: SOLO (Search Oxford Libraries Online) Angela Carritt User Education Coordinator.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649f355503460f94c52b21/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
