Frequently Asked Questions

Question

Is searching with GALILEO Search better than searching in an individual database?

Answer

Using a federated search product like GALILEO Search means several databases can be searched from a single search box, making resource discovery easier and faster for many users.

Some users will prefer to select specific databases in which to search in order to use the functionality of the databases' native search interfaces and to refine results more strategically than they can do using GALILEO Search.
