Using Quick Search

Use Quick Search for an introductory, basic search on your topic.

Quick Search is the first screen you will see after logging in to SuperSearch. From this page you can choose a Quick Set and perform a search across several databases at once.

Quick Sets are groups of databases that relate to a particular subject area. You can search most of the resources in these sets at the same time and view the results in SuperSearch.

How to do a Quick Search:

The default set selected is "Multidisciplinary", this may be changed by following step one

  1. Choose the Quick Set you want to search by clicking on the radio button next to it (You can only search one Quick Set at a time)
  2. Type search terms into the search box(es)
  3. Click on the Go button
  4. Most of the resources in the Quick Set will now search for these terms. Once all databases have completed searching results will be presented in Table View format.
