The MSU Libraries have launched SearchPlus, a new research tool which allows users to search most of the library's online databases and the library catalog all at the same time.

The result is a multidisciplinary set of citations, which can then be filtered by date, language, subject, and content type -- such as books, articles in scholarly journals, newspaper articles, dissertations, and more. MSU faculty, staff, and current students can use their MSUnet login to connect seamlessly from SearchPlus results to online full-text content.

Alumni and other community users can use the complete citation information provided by SearchPlus to request an interlibrary loan through their local public library. (Due to longstanding license restrictions, the library may only provide online access to licensed content to current students, faculty, and staff.)

SearchPlus is powered by ProQuest's Summon® software.
