Use the criteria you put on the template and evaluation to make the comparison. Many databases will be discussed and compared in class on days indicated. Put information on the Template for a vendor s interface only once, if you wish. For example, all FirstSearch databases use the same adjacency operators. List it once.
Some students save each vendor interface template and reused it for databases by the same vendor.
For example, annotate FirstSearch once. Use saved FirstSearch template for World Cat and for ERIC, etc. Select a search to run in each database. Execute the same search in each database, if possible. If your topic does not produce results, broaden your topic or select another search that works in each database.
