My Folder and My EBSCOhost

It is useful to create an EBSCO user account, then you can keep the collected articles and saved searches even after closing the database. To do that, click MyEBSCO in the top right corner of the page and then Create an account and fill in the fields. 

Once you are signed in with your EBSCO account, you can use the EBSCO Discovery Dashboard features to permanently save and manage your searches and search results.

NB! If you use the database with university account and do not also log in with your EBSCO account, you will not be able to save your searches and search results to your EBSCO dashboard, and they will disappear after you finish working with the database.

In the results list, next to every short record, is a file icon with a plus sign. In the full record, there is an Add to Folder icon on the right of the record. By clicking on these icons you can add articles and other content from the database to your own folder.

To see the selected records, click on   on the blue ribbon on the top of the page or on the link Go to: Folder view on the right-hand side of the search results page. When logged in, you can also create subfolders in your folder by clicking New on the right of the link My Custom.

The collected records can be printed out, sent to your mailbox or saved by using links PrintE-mailSave as File.

For export into the reference manager EndNote Online, select Direct Export to EndNote Web. For export into Zotero, select Direct Export in RIS Format .
