Research Platforms Roadmap

Users can now save a search directly from the search results page via the Search actions kabob menu, with the ability to designate a Name and Description for a saved search. Searches can be edited from within the My dashboard feature and users can designate optional Name and/or Description values.

AI Insights Summaries assist users in assessing an article's relevance to their research by providing a new button in the result list. This feature uses Generative AI to create on-demand summaries of 2-5 key points, based on the full text of the article. An AI Insight is grounded in the full-text of the article.

The results page now lists the selected search mode under “All Filters.” The search mode can be changed on the Advanced Search under “Search Options”. It also displays any selected Search Expanders. For more convenient refinement, a link back to “Advanced Search” is now directly available in the “All Filters” panel.

“My Dashboard” is now collapsed by default on Explora. Users can click on the “My Dashboard” header to expand it. After expanding this menu, it will remain expanded as users navigate through the interface. Users can also collapse it again by clicking on the “My Dashboard” header, and it will remain collapsed until expanded again.

The Credo Reference integration is now updated to use Credo’s New API. Additionally, it has moved to the top of the EDS results page.

The EDS search box builder is now updated to generate URLs for the New UI. It is integrated into the new EEM search box builder module and has added functionality. These changes will not affect existing EDS search boxes.

Enhance New Publication Finder navigation so that Search home (now call Search Publications), Browse Databases and Browse Subjects become tabs above the search box.  The 'Search Publications' tab name will be customizable via EBSCO Experience Manager Configuration
