New Enhancements – March 31, 2009
We’re pleased to announce that the next release of OvidSP is scheduled for March 31, 2009! The following enhancements are included as part of this release:  

• Customizable Search Fields – Display frequently used fields in a new MyFields tab—you no longer have to select them each time you perform a search since OvidSP will remember them each time you log in. Easily add or remove all other fields—now located in a Show All tab—based on your preferences.
• New Limit to Star Ranking – Limit searches to generate results with a specific ranking, such as five or four stars. Remember—ranking denotes relevancy; five stars indicate the highest relevancy.
• Enhanced Limit to Publication Year – You will be able to select “current” (i.e., “Limit to 2006-Current”), rather than a specific year as your end date, so you can stay up-to-date with the most current information available. This also applies to saved searches you have set up to receive via AutoAlert or RSS feed.
• Quarterly AutoAlerts – Set up saved searches and journal eTOCs and AutoAlerts to arrive on a quarterly basis.
• Improved highlighting – We’re improving the accuracy of highlighting in OvidSP for both Basic Search as well as Advanced Search. User-entered terms will be highlighted in bold red and expanded terms will be highlighted in bold green.
• Clin-eguide customers only – You will find a new link from the main search page of all search modes directly to the Clin-eguide homepage.
