MultiSearch (via Summon)

MultiSearch provides fast and simple, one-step searching across a range of the Library’s resources, including the library catalogue, most library databases, and some digital collections.

MultiSearch is a discovery tool, designed to make it quick and easy to begin researching a topic. It is not a replacement for the detailed and precise search tools available from individual subject specific databases.
