The user interface looks very different from what you use today, and we hope you’ll love it. The new platform has a support center with information available to address common questions. There you will also find tutorial videos for basic search, data search, My Knovel and interactive tools. Of course, Knovel’s customer support team is also available to help. We can’t wait for you to use the new platform, and we look forward to your feedback. Want to check it out? Register for a Knovel user demonstration session.

Also, LexisNexis Academic now includes Google Translate functionality. Users will now see a drop-down box in results list and document view that will allow them to translate their results and documents into over 70 languages. Being as various librarians have requested this enhancement, I hope that you will all find this a useful new piece of Academic. Visit the Knowledge Center article on Google Translate for FAQ:
