The ability to search and receive results in more than one database through a single interface—or metasearch—is something many of our users want. Google Scholar—the search engine of specifically scholarly content—and library metasearch products like Ex Libris's MetaLib, Serials Solution's Central Search, WebFeat, and products based on MuseGlobal used by both academic and public libraries—are all a means of providing this functionality.
