Database helpsheets

Although most databases function in the same way, they do vary somewhat in look and advanced functionality, especially the more specialist databases. It is useful when using a database to consult the helpsheet or help screen to get an idea of unique features and functions.

Helpsheets and truncation symbols for individual databases are available:
From the

button on the Sirius screen and from the Library Subject Guides
From the Library's Database Helpsheets page
From the database online help screens
