I don't know when you last looked at an article found in one of the Infotrac products, but if it wasn't recently, then you've not seen some of the new improvements. When you drill down to the full-text of the article, a red "Tools" box is displayed on the page. You are given several choices - view a .pdf of the article (along with page count); email the article; download the article; see a print preview; use the "citation tools"; or translate the article into one of eight foreign languages.
When you use the "citation tools", you are given a choice of saving the citation in either MLA or APA format, or plain text with bibliographic tags. You may also download it to import into 3rd party software such as EndNote.
The translation tool includes Spanish, French, German, Japanese and several additional languages.
Take a look at this new format when you have a chance. It's pretty darn slick!!

I'm amazed at all of the amazing tools these databases offer! It will be exciting to help a patron find exactly what they need with these new technologies.
