Find It Integration

Find It link about the Minnesota Twins!

Above is a link from the U of M Libraries Find It Linking Service that I put in my blog through the Movable Type bookmarklet function. First I created the bookmarklet bookmark (main menu of MT screen) so that I could use it later. Then I did a search in a Find It enabled database. Once the Find It menu appeared for an article I was interested in I used my bookmarklet bookmark to post the Find It menu URL to my blog. It was easy, and if I keep the bookmarklet page open, I can add more (although you do have to deal with multiple pop ups). This could be a handy way for faculty, staff, and students to keep a list of citations before they move it up to RefWorks, or whatever bibliographic management software they use.
