After you do a search, you will return a list of all the records that meet your search criteria. The areas marked by numbered bubbles are explained below the image.

1. This tells how many records you found.
2. This symbol means that the Covenant Seminary Library owns that journal. Be aware that this does not necessarily mean that we own that particular issue, merely some issues of that journal title. Check the catalog to see if we own that particular issue.
3. This icon means that the full-text of the article (that is, the article itself) is available by clicking on the link provided. The article may then be read or printed.
4. Doc. Type tells what kind of document that record represents. The primary three are: "Article" is an article in a journal; "Essay" is an essay in a book; "Review" is a book review.
5. You can mark records of interest by clicking on these boxes. Marked records may be viewed, printed, e-mailed by clicking on Marked Records (see bubble 6).
