When saving articles into any of the EBSCO (CINAHL, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, etc.) databases, it only shows 10 at a time. If you want to export from your clipboard, and have more than 10, you have to scroll and show all the pages BEFORE you can export all results (I can do 10 at a time, but boo). I want to export the entire list at once. In the previous version, you could do this. I use the clipboard now and then when I'm doing a general lit search for folks. All the clicks is annoying and a time waster.

Editing the search brings up an interface where "Search Name" is the first field, and does NOT update the query.

# data[].attributes.body
With thanks to the person who articulated WHY editing what appears to be the search doesn't work!

Clicking "Edit Search Details" brings up a screen with an editable text field that contains the query, but this search field is labelled "Search name" and has NO IMPACT on the query itself. This is PROFOUNDLY misleading and puzzling.

In order to actually edit the search query, two boxes down there is a static, un-editable box labelled "Query" with a link to "edit search," which directs to a separate page where the query can be edited and implemented. Note that this option is NOT available for line combination searches (e.g. a line that reads (S1 and S2) shows the query of the combined lines ("patellar tendon tear*" and (rehab* or surgery or repair)) and does NOT offer an edit option.

# data[].attributes.body
There should be a label that lets the user know that they can add or change databases. "Searching: [name of database]" is not intuitive enough to know to click on the name to make those changes.

When I rerun a saved search, and then move to Recent Activity to look at something, I can't then go back to the search results except by clicking the last line of the search (e.g. S4 AND S3) but doing that reruns that line and makes a new (duplicate) line in my Recent Activity. It's infuriating!

I used to be able to download and email my results but now it is more work. Example - project page shows first 10 records but 40 records total. If you click on the select all it will only select the records on that 'page' i.e. first 10 NOT all of the records. For the new UI if there is a "show more project records" message at the bottom of the 'page' it will only select the records shown not all of the records. It may not seem like much but if you have 200 records that is a lot of clicks on show more project records just to select all.

I routinely search Cinahl alone, but often need to combine the search with Medline. I don't think I've ever done a search--weather it's just cinahl, or cinahl combined with Medline--in which I don't get duplicate and sometimes triplicate results. Other databases do much better with this than ebsco. Why can't/won't they?

# data[].attributes.body
I routinely have to screen long result lists in ebsco (Medline and Cinahl). More often than not, when I try to view more of the abstract in the result list only conflict of interest statements display. If I try to export these articles to refworks (which I routinely have to do), I NEVER get the abstract, only the conflict of interest statement. If you MUST include that, put it AFTER or separate from the abstract. This is blocking my ability to screen articles and costs me a lot of time, frustration, and extra searching to find the abstracts I actually need to send to patrons.

It would be very helpful to be able to see and edit the search strategy I have run while browsing the results. Is this possible?

# data[].attributes.body
I wish the full text was not included at the bottom of the detailed record page. It is not necessary since the links to view or download it are right there at the top of the page, and (more importantly) it broke the Zotero functionality where it would download the full text of the article when it added the metadata to Zotero. Now the full text has to be downloaded separately and linked to the Zotero record, which is an unnecessary extra step. Our patrons liked being able to add both the metadata and the full text with one click.

Pretty sure this is in all databases with additional indexes. In this case, for example, to find the age groups, you have to go to the database documentation PDF on EBSCO Connect to see the exact options. It also lists AE as the phrase indexed field and AG as word indexed, but AE isn't listed in the drop-down (although it does work).

The following searches yield identical results:

Word indexed:

AG ("Childhood (birth-12 yrs)")

AG (Childhood (birth-12 yrs))

Phrase indexed:

AE ("Childhood (birth-12 yrs)")

But Phrase indexed: AE (Childhood (birth-12 yrs)) yields zero results

If instead I clear the search box and type S4 NOT S3, the search results look for the terms S4 and S3 in the references themselves!

# data[].attributes.subject
Provide Complete Field Code Documentation

# data[].attributes.body
Each EBSCOhost database has its own controlled vocabulary, and often multiple. PsycInfo, for example, has MeSH, APA Thesaurus, and Author Keywords. The available field codes may search one, all, or a combination of these; they may search those vocabularies with word or phrase indexing; they might even separate out 'major' terms. It is incumbent on me when doing a systematic search as an evidence synthesis librarian to know exactly how I'm searching, but EBSCO provides insufficient documentation to help unscramble the available field codes. I resort to checking the complete list of field codes for all EBSCO databases, because not all of the available codes in a given database are displayed in the dropdown. I then make a spreadsheet with all of those and test them against each other with NOT statements and look at the abstracts to get a reasonable guess on how they work. I'm recording this in my own spreadsheet and basically creating the documentation myself. It would be greatly appreciated if EBSCO would tell us exactly what each field code means in each database, especially since the field codes are not used consistently between databases as far as I can tell.

Recent activity should be viewable in the search interface

# data[].attributes.body
As far as I can tell, recent activity must be viewed in a separate tab from the search. When constructing systematic searches, calling up searches by ID (e.g., S1 AND (S2 OR S3)) is important. Inability to view the search history in the same page produces a very poor user experience for those doing evidence synthesis work. There is a reason why search interfaces preferred for this work, like Ovid, Scopus, Web of Science, all allow search history to be viewed in the search interface.

Yesterday I signed in, created and saved searches. Today I can't even get into my account. Using "Forgot your password" (which I didn't) to reset and getting a confirmation of the reset doesn't fix the problem. This is soooo frustrating and a waste of my time.

Effect: Instead of remaining in Database X and running the old search in that environment, EBSCOhost returns you to all databases to run the search as exactly as it originated.
