You can Email and Export records individually or in batches. Please see the methods below.

Method 1 – Individual Records: Basic Email and Export options are available on the “Send to” menu that appears in individual records.

Method 2 – My Favorites: You can also use the “Push to” menu that appears by clicking the 3 dots in My Favorites, for acting on batches of records in search results.

For more information on saving your searches and accessing My Favorites, please see the OneSearch and Search Tips FAQs: “How Do I Save My Searches?” Once in the “Push to” menu of My Favorites, select the desired action, and follow the system prompts. When exporting to Excel, you’ll be prompted to select file type (Excel or CSV) and a download location.

Use the Email and Export options described above for batches of up to ~300 records in My Favorites. 

Method 3 – Search Results: You can Email or Export batches from the gray menu above the search results list when you select one or more records.

By clicking the checkbox in the gray menu above the search results, the system will automatically select all the results on the first page, (shown in the screenshot above as “You have selected 10 records”). You can also choose to select one or more records from the results page. Once you have selected your records of choice, click the three dots along the right side of the gray menu to choose the export format.

You can also select “Choose Top 50 Results” from the gray menu and click on the three dots along the right side to export a batch of that size.

For a large batch export of 300 up to ~5,000 records at a time, select "Export Top ~5,000 Results" from the gray menu. You must be logged in to Export via this method.

You'll be prompted to select an Export Format (BibTeX, Excel, or EndNote desktop/Zotero); add your email and a batch of records in the format you selected will be sent to you as an email attachment. Please note that large files may take longer to process and deliver.

Browse search, located under ... [More] options,  allows you to browse library material (UB Libraries catalog only) in order to find information of relevance quickly. You can browse material by several different fields. In the results, you can click an underlined entry to see its associated records. Clicking a title displays the full record.

As an alternative to Browse Search, you can search "Title starts with" or "Holding Call Number starts with" in Advanced Search:

Advanced Search "Starts with" can find materials beyond the UB Libraries Catalog, but can only be used with the Title and Holding Call Number field.

You should be able to perform all the same searches in OneSearch as you could in Everything Search. We have simplified some of the search options and included access to more resources.  If you were accustomed to using a particular tab or scope in Everything Search that you don't see in OneSearch, check Searching Different Areas in OneSearch.

If you need to see saved records, searches or favorites from Everything Catalog or Everything Journals, you can login and retrieve them at these links:

• Everything: Catalog tab favorites
• Everything: Journals tab favorites
