[OPLINLIST] EBSCO training sessions

[Stephen Hedges]

In looking through the free webinars offered by EBSCO (
https://ebscotraining.webex.com/), I see two upcoming sessions that might
be of interest:

Explora for Schools and Public Libraries
Thursday, August 4, 2016, 11:00 am
Explora is the interface replacing the student interfaces: Searchasaurus,
Kids Search, and Student Research Center starting July 1, 2016. With new
features such as Cite, HTML translation, Read Aloud and much more, you'll
want to join this session to learn about the Explora interfaces and how
database administrators can customize their users' search experience.

EBSCOhost Advanced
Tuesday, August 9, 2016, 3:00 pm
The EBSCOhost Advanced Training course utilizes the Advanced Search Screen
and covers the application of Subject Headings from the Thesaurus,
utilization of limiters, and field codes to obtain highly relevant results.
Additional advanced search functions such as proximity and wildcard
operators will be discussed. Search and journal alerts will be reviewed as
well as the search history features that can be used to combine search
statements to create complex searches.

You can register for either of these by going to the ebscotraining link
above and scrolling to the session you want.
