I think everyone is familiar with Nursing@Ovid, so I won’t go into a great level of detail here; like OvidMD serves the needs of the clinician, N@O serves the needs of the nurse. It has been designed from the beginning to accommodate the research of the nursing community both with it’s functionality as well as the content set behind that functionality; and as our own Mark Barragry likes to say, it “speaks nurse”. Mark will be showing you some great new features of N@O in his nursing workshop over the next two days. * Finally, we have our local language portals; OvidFrancais and OvidChinese. We’ve had some great opportunities to expand our global reach with some non-English content – content that we are not able to load on OvidSP for a variety of reasons. These new language portals serve as a means to deliver that non-English content to these markets. In addition, they also serve as a launching pad to future development, as they are being built on an entirely new infrastructure, utilizing FAST and SharePoint technology. As we move forward with licensing additional content, we’ll likely see the emergence of other language specific portals as well. Next: current status * * * * * So looking first at the select resources screen in the new version of OvidSP, we can see the first new feature here called Resource Groups. The My Resource Groups function allows you to group frequently used, or favorite resources into a customized group that can be selected with one click. This allows frequently used resources to appear on top of the resource list. Resource groups can be used to create a “favorite” group of databases that you frequently search together, group multiple MEDLINE segments into a one group, and to group resources by subject. Resource groups can be set by the user in their personal account, or the library adminstrator can make resource groups to show for all users. This is an example from a Japan customer who has organised resource groups of databases
