I have a folder or articles in my EBSCOhost account. On the left of each article, there are words like "export", "cite", and "notes". What do they do?
Please see the answers to your questions below about features in EBSCO's MyEBSCO folder. On the left of each article, there are words like "export", "cite", and "notes".
- These features allow you to manage the contents of the folder. For example, if you want to export the citation to a citation management (https://guides.lib.lsu.edu/c.php?g=279388&p=1862193) tool like Endnote or Zotero, you can do that. Or if you want to make notes about the citation and come back to them at a later date, the note for that citation will still be there. If you are interested in learning more about citation management and how it can help you organize your research, refer to our Citation LibGuide (https://guides.lib.lsu.edu/citation) as well as our workshop (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRcFIlrWpDg&list=PL5ZtZe36ynPlutYgX4_x0…) about Zotero where you will learn how to set up Zotero to save and store sources and generate citations. To view upcoming workshops, please use our events calendar (https://lsu.libcal.com/calendar/eventsandprogramming) . What do these features actually do? How long does content remain in my folder?
- As long as you are logged into the MyEBSCOhost platform, the citations will stay there until you remove them. Here are some FAQs (https://connect.ebsco.com/s/article/EBSCOhost-Folder-Frequently-Asked-Q….) regarding how long content is kept in the folder. How do I delete an article from my folder if it is not relevant?
- To remove result(s) from your personalized folder, select the result by clicking on the appropriate check box, then click the Delete Items link. You may find this page (https://connect.ebsco.com/s/article/How-to-Use-the-My-EBSCOhost-Folder?…) useful in learning how to use the folder as well. Feel free to reach out to your subject librarian (https://www.lib.lsu.edu/staff?field_staff_type=2&search_api_staff=&fiel…) for more assistance. eResources Staff Answered by: Electronic Resources

Mass Observation Project: 1981-2009
Welcome to Mass Observation Project. Launched in 1981 by the University of Sussex as a rebirth of the original 1937 Mass Observation, its founders' aim was to document the social history of Britain by recruiting volunteers to write about their lives and opinions. Still growing, it is one of the most important sources available for qualitative social data in the UK. This collection consists of the directives (questionnaires) sent out by Mass Observation in the 1980s and the thousands of responses to them from the hundreds of Mass Observers.

The Perfect Catch : Based on a Hallmark Channel Original Movie
She's small-town. He's big-league. They broke up years ago… But is it really over?In the small town of Parker Falls, Jessica Parker spends her time serving pie and coming up with ideas to save the failing diner she inherited from her grandfather. A single mom to eight-year-old Wesley, she has enough to keep her busy well into the future. But when her old high school love, Chase Taynor, unexpectedly pops up, Jess finds herself thinking not of the future but of her past with the handsome professional baseball player. After a few bad pitches leave his dream career in limbo, Chase slides back home to Parker Falls…although the town may not be as safe as he'd expected. As Jess and Chase reconnect, old feelings return in a major-league way. With the possibility that Chase could return to the baseball diamond at any time, will their reunion be worth the risk to their hearts? Or will it be déjà vu all over again, with Chase choosing the limelight over the woman he loved before the fame? The book contains a free original recipe for Bacon & White Cheddar Burgers with Spicy Mustard Relish.

Catch 52 : An Everyman's Tale of Surviving in a Post-Brexit World
What do you do when your love affair with Europe comes to an undignified end? On 24th June 2016, Mike McCarthy wakes up to the news that Britain has voted to leave the EU. A committed European, he is shattered. Over the coming weeks and months, he takes a long, hard look at himself, determined to uncover the reasons why this travesty has occurred, scrutinising the faces of everyone he meets for those he believes may have voted in or out. As he tries to cope with the looming horror of Brexit, Mike fondly recalls his visits to Europe as a young man, the relationships he formed and how these have moulded his pan-European outlook. Digging too deeply into issues has always been his problem. Mike begins to question the views he holds so dear and discovers new things about those closest to him. As McCarthy staggers on from The Referendum to the unthinkable triggering of Article 50, he finds himself plunged himself into a different world of social comment and political media. As the strategy for Bredit emerges, he wonders where his future lies and questions his commitment to a cause that may yet plunge his and Britain's hopes and dreams into the abyss.
Results of trawl counts for juvenile pink salmon in the Bering and Okhotsk Seas in 2024 and prospects for the returns and catch in the Karaginsky subzone and Okhotsk Sea in 2025
The key stage of juvenile pink salmon monitoring is the survey of their fall feeding in the sea that detects the year-class strength. The results of this survey are used for forecasting of the pink salmon returns to the Karaginsky fishing subzone in Bering Sea and to the Okhotsk Sea and the landing in the next year. The trawl surveys with two research vessels have conducted in recent years that allows to cover vast areas in a short time and to exclude repeated counts of the same fish on neighbor transects. In 2024, such trawl survey for pink salmon counting was conducted in the western Bering Sea and Okhotsk Sea that provided representative data on the juveniles abundance used for forecasting their returns and catches in the Karaginsky fishing subzone and Okhotsk Sea. The abundance of pink salmon in the western Bering Sea was estimated in 452∙106 ind. that was about a half of their numbers in previous even years (2018, 2020, 2022). Their return to the Karaginsky fishing subzone in the next year is expected as 72∙106 ind. at the lower limit of confidence interval, that provides the catch of 49∙103 t with the expected weight of spawners about 1 kg and 32 % escapement to the spawning grounds. In the Okhotsk Sea, the abundance of pink salmon was estimated in 1077∙106 ind. that was lower than in 2020 and 2022. Their expected return to the Okhotsk Sea in the next year is expected as 123∙106 ind. at the lower limit of confidence interval, that provides the catch of 100∙103 t with the weight of 1.3 kg and escapement of 35 %. Abundance in «northern» and «southern» regional complexes of local stocks is estimated for pink salmon in the Okhotsk Sea using cluster analysis with the expectation-maximization algorithm (EM clustering); the «northern» group prevailed with the ratio 64:36 %.
Chocolate squid (Todarodes pacificus) bait reduces snow crab catch rates
This study evaluated the performance of chocolate squid (Todarodes pacificus) bait as a lower-cost alternative to traditional squid bait in a snow crab (Chionoecetes opilio) fishery in Eastern Canada. The results showed that pots with chocolate squid bait had significantly lower catch rates compared to pots with traditional squid bait. The chocolate squid bait significantly reduced the number of crabs caught per pot by 13.99% and the weight of crabs caught per pot by 2.88 kg. Although the chocolate squid bait is cheaper, the decrease in catch rates could require increased effort to reach individual quotas, which could lead to longer or more frequent fishing trips and more traps being fished, increasing fuel consumption and habitat disruption, resulting in negative environmental impacts. Finding alternative lower-cost baits that maintain catch rates remains a key priority for reducing operational costs and minimizing environmental impacts in the snow crab fishery.
Assessing the indicated impact of cantrang (boat Danish seine) based on catch characteristics in Java Sea, Indonesia
Cantrang (boat Danish seine) has been illegal since 2015 but remains prevalent in Indonesia’s Java Sea. Despite known negative impacts, no comprehensive ecological assessment of cantrang fishing exists. This study evaluates its effects by analyzing catch data based on taxa, trophic level, habitat, and fishing vulnerability by a multivariate approach. In this study, the size of 60 cantrang vessel samples were grouped into 4, namely 20–30, 31–50, 51–100, and 101–200 gross tons (GT), representing the spatial distribution of the fishing grounds. Larger vessels catch more diverse and abundant fish, primarily reef-associated and demersal species groups. There was a significant difference in the fishing vessel’s size on the catch’s composition (analysis of similarities, ANOSIM R = 0.114, p = 0.024). The dominant catches were families of Loliginidae (Loligo sp., 24.38%) and Nemipteridae (Nemipterus nematophorus, 19.29%), trophic level 2.7 (34.41–43.18%), reef-associated and demersal fish (37.06–46.09%), and low vulnerability group of fish (58.01–64.56%). Additionally, 2.69–8.56% of the endangered, threatened, and protected species of wedgefish (Rhyncobatus sp.) were also caught by the cantrang. This study confirms the impacts of cantrang on fish resources in the Java Sea, Indonesia’s Fisheries Management Area 712. The findings emphasize the need to improve management strategies to achieve sustainable fish resources and marine biodiversity in the region.
