NIU Primo
Primo description:
- Single search box/unified search engine (similar to Google Scholar)
- Cross-discipline retrieval of material provides an overview of research in topic area (in-depth searching better achieved by searching subject specific databases)
- Uses filters called facets to limit search results (e.g. articles vs. books, dates, language, full-text)
- Fast retrieval of full-text articles either by a link to the article or through Information Delivery Services (IDS)
- Intended audience – researchers (both novice and seasoned) seeking a broad scope of material on a topic
Primo contains:
- NIU’s online catalog (including print & e-resources, scores, video, etc.)
- Articles (full-text when available. Off-campus users will need to authenticate.)
- Huskie Commons Digital Repository content
- For more information, contact your subject specialist or stop by the reference desks in Founders Library or the Music Library
