Subject: [Libs-Or] Interface and responsive design updates coming to Gale databases

On April 2, Gale will be introducing an enhanced design for the Gale Virtual Reference Library (GVRL) and the other databases within the InfoTrac and In Context families, including the PowerSearch platform. These enhancements will increase accessibility for those with disabilities like low vision or blindness, improve usability for desktop and mobile researchers, and create a common user experience across most of their resources. More details are available: http://solutions.cengage.com/enhancements2015/

To get a preview of these changes, login into GVRL, Academic OneFile, or General OneFile. In the top left corner, you should see a link to Try New Experience

After clicking on the link, you will see a link to Try Now. Clicking on this link will take you into the database with the new design.

All of the current functionality within the current databases is still available in the new design, but there are some changes to the placement of various tools. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.
