Thing 17

Whew! I think I just ran a marathon! I had used these databases for all sorts of searches in the past but hadn't explored any of them to see what all you could do. Wow.

How can these tools be applied to your everyday work? RSS feeds to your common searches is a big one. I had often thought about a website but not from this angle.

How can these tools facilitate collaboration with your colleagues? If you were all working on a project on a certain topic of which no one was an expert or didn't already have resources this would work for that.

How can these tools benefit your patrons/students? Keeping track of your research and sharing with others comes to mind.
