Marked Items

While viewing certain pages, such as your search results list and the document display page, you may want to collect documents in a list called Marked Items which allows you to set aside documents you're interested in and then view and/or retrieve them all together. Once you've added a document to your Marked Items list, the Marked Items icon will appear on the toolbar along with a count of the number of items currently in the list.

Select products will "remember" your list of Marked Items as you Change Databases. However, once you Logout, your Marked Items list will be cleared, unless you first Bookmark it. The following products share the same Marked Items list:

• Gale Virtual Reference Library
• Literature Resource Center
• Literature Resources from Gale
• LitFinder
• MLA International Bibliography

You may collect up to 50 documents in your Marked Items list. To add items to your Marked Items list, click to place a check mark in the corresponding Mark checkbox . Items on results lists will appear highlighted as you mark them and you will see a count of the number of items currently in your list, shown in parentheses after the Marked Items icon in the toolbar.

To remove an item from your Marked Items list, simply click the checkbox to remove the check mark.

Whenever you display a marked item on a results list or on the document display page during your current session, you will see a check mark in the corresponding Mark checkbox.

A Mark All checkbox is available on the results list, allowing you to add all the items shown on the page to your Marked Items lsit.

Using Your Mark List

To view your current list of saved items, click the Marked Items icon in the toolbar (found in the banner area at the top of the page).

The appearance of the Marked Items list is similar to a results list; however, there are no tabs. For each item on your Marked Items list, you'll find the hyperlinked document title (which takes you to the document display page), brief publication information (including the hyperlinked publication title, which takes you to the About this Publication page), the document type, and a Remove button. The total number of items you have marked is also shown at the top of the Marked Items list.

Click the Remove button to remove an item from your list or click Remove All at the top of the list to clear all items from the list at once.

Document Tools on the Marked Items List Page

To help you manage your Marked Items, use the features listed in the Tools box. You will be able to Print Preview, E-mail, and use the Citation Tools. Note that a separate Download link is available at the far right.
