InfoKat Discovery adds New Citation Feature

InfoKat Discovery, a great research tool for searching multiple library resources from one interface, adds a new feature called Citation Trails. According to Ex Libris, it adds “cited” and “cited by” relations to many articles, and enables users to view these relations by clicking the new citations and cited by links in the brief and full view of an item. From citation lists, users can browse between lists to follow a chain of citations and to learn more about the intended topic. The original title will appear at the top of each citation list to provide context for users. Because the citation lists are not comprehensive and are to be used as an exploratory service, the total number of citations will not appear in the citation lists. For more, please watch the Ex Libris two minute video.
