Finding a Deal

Biggest shopping day of the year. Yesterdays papers were crammed with sales flyers (well the papers have been crammed with sales flyers for a week.....).
Where can you go to find out about a particular product? The magazine, Consumer Reports, has built a reputation as a reliable authority for product testing but you haven't saved all those issues in a neat stack.
The library doesn't open till after the shopping malls.
Where can you find out if that particular widget is the best widget to buy?

Yes, GALILEO!
Select EbscoHost (Academic Search Premier (at EbscoHost)
.....Select the Publication button (sort of in the middle of the screen)
.........Search for Consumer Reports
............Click on Consumer Reports (it does have a three month delay so you need to keep the last three months of the print issues)
...............Then you can "Search within this publication" (the link is toward the right of center)

Voila! Information about the widget you desire. Notice that you can set a Journal Alert and EbscoHost will e-mail you the latest entry for your search!

The password for home use of GALILEO is available to the citizens of Georgia from your librarian. Some resources noted in this BLOG are only available to NMTC patrons.
