I have a folder or articles in my EBSCOhost account. On the left of each article, there are words like "export", "cite", and "notes". What do they do?

Answer

Please see the answers to your questions below about features in EBSCO's MyEBSCO folder.

On the left of each article, there are words like "export", "cite", and "notes".

  • These features allow you to manage the contents of the folder. For example, if you want to export the citation to a citation management tool like Endnote or Zotero, you can do that. Or if you want to make notes about the citation and come back to them at a later date, the note for that citation will still be there. If you are interested in learning more about citation management and how it can help you organize your research, refer to our Citation LibGuide as well as our workshop about Zotero where you will learn how to set up Zotero to save and store sources and generate citations.

What do these features actually do? How long does content remain in my folder? 

  • As long as you are logged into the MyEBSCOhost platform, the citations will stay there until you remove them. Here are some FAQs regarding how long content is kept in the folder.

How do I delete an article from my folder if it is not relevant?

  • To remove result(s) from your personalized folder, select the result by clicking on the appropriate check box, then click the Delete Items link. You may find this page useful in learning how to use the folder as well.

Feel free to reach out to your subject librarian for more assistance.
