Zusammenfassung:After evaluating available federated search products, MCHSL chose the reasonably priced SwetsWise Medical Searcher, which provided a variety of advanced search capabilities and was able to return immediate search results along with a visual ranking of results by topic. In October 2012, MCHSL launched a new website ,http:// library.mchs.com. prominently featuring a single search interface powered by Medical Searcher and promoted as ''MCHSL eSearcher'' to differentiate it from the previous search box, which only searched MCHSL website content. eSearcher provides results from twenty-four evidence-based, peer-reviewed resources that can be grouped by MCHSL-predefined categories.
