    • Product: E-Journal Portal

    How do we create custom search boxes so patrons can quickly search for e-books in our E-Journal Portal?

    Quick search boxes allow your patrons quick access to the E-Journal Portal's resources from various web pages other than the primary E-Journal Portal itself. The below information applies to both the legacy E-Journal Portal as well as the enhanced E-Journal Portal 2.0.
    The quick-search boxes allow more access points for patrons and more flexibility for librarians.
    For quick-search boxes that search your journal holdings, see this documentation.
    For quick-search boxes that search your e-book holdings, read on here.
    For patrons to be able to search for (and see) your e-book holdings in the E-Journal Portal, your library needs to activate and customize the e-resource portal.
    Insert the HTML code below into the web page where you want the search box to appear. You need to replace CLIENTID with your Serials Solutions 10-digit Client ID. If you don't know your Client ID, click here.
    Click the search feature below to jump to the HTML code for that feature:
    Title Search
    A-Z List
    Subject Search

    Title Search

    In the Head section of your web page (between the <head> and </head> tags), add this javascript reference:
    <script src="http://CLIENTID.search.serialssoluti...m_functions.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    Then place the appropriate code below in the portion of your web page where you would like the search form to appear.

    If you would like to place a simple Title Search box with checkboxes on your web page, use this code:
    <form method="get" action="http://CLIENTID.search.serialssolutions.com/" name="SS_EJPSearchForm">

    <b>Find e-resources by title or identifying number: </b>
    <div class="SS_ToolLabels"><b>Limit </b>search to the following content types:<br>
