Word arrived that "a new interface for History Reference Center is now available in GALILEO. Users can now browse subjects and popular resources as well as searching for historical topics. To limit to a time period or a Lexile reading level range, click the Advanced Search. "

A trip to History Reference Center through GALILEO pulled up the standard Ebsco search page. A search for Abraham Lincoln revealed a number of articles. Where is the "browse subjects" area? A return to the standard page, a scroll down showed a Timeline box with drop down subjects. I picked the U.S. History - Civil War and reconstruction. Over 10000 articles appeared. So how do I browse? On the left side there's a column. Scroll past 'Refine your results' and keep going. There are the options for subject and publication browsing. Click on the arrows to reveal the options. They call it a 'new interface' but it looks so much like the standard Ebsco interface that it took me awhile to figure out what was 'new'.
