Credo Reference: Using Credo Reference: Search Results

Research guide discussing how to use the search features of Credo Reference.

Search Result List

Your results list will generally look like this:

 

The first result will be a Topic Page, if available for your subject.  This page includes the encyclopedia entry, any images available, alternative definitions, related topics, and selected databases at McKee Library that can be automatically searched.

A standard encyclopedia entry is below.  Some can be very long, others very short and everything in between.  The word count is always given at the bottom of the entry to give you an idea of the length.  Links to related entries from the same title may be given as well.

There is now also the ability to "bookmark and share" entries on social media sites such as facebook and twitter. Additionally, Credo offers a "Read Aloud" option for many articles.
