Pin Your Favourites

homepage with arrows pointing at the Go to My Favourites icon on the menu bar, the Save this search to your favourites icon above the search results, and the Add this item icon at the right of each search result.

 

If you’re signed in, you can save individual records and searches. Look for the pin icon to save a search, save an individual item (or a set of items), or view your saved items and searches.

Organize your items by adding labels: click the check box next to the relevant item(s), then select "add label" (under the pencil icon). You can add a label to multiple items at once, and you can add multiple labels to each item.

The list of options which appear after checkmarking more than one item, and choosing the Add This Item icon. You can either Add to Favourites or Add to Favourites Using Labels.

To view all items associated with a label, go to My Favourites, which is the Pin icon in the menu bar, and click on a label name in the list to the right.

Pro tip: we recommend using separate citation management software, such as Zotero. Citation software allows you to save items from sources other than Page 1+ and offers better options for organizing your materials and generating pre-formatted bibliographies.

Saving and Sharing Options

Saving or Sharing using a URL:

  • Page 1+ URLs are permanent. This means that you can simply copy and paste the url to save, share, or link to a search. (It's always a good idea to test the URL to make sure all your filters carried over.) 

Pinning Results

  • Save a search: use the pin icon that appears at the top of your results after you run the search. Saved searches are stored under "My Favorites."
  • Save a recent search: in "My Favorites," you can access the most recent 100 searches you've conducted while signed in under "search history."
  • Set up alerts: to be notified when Page 1+ adds new items that match your search criteria, select the icons for RSS or email when viewing your saved searches in My Favorites (via the pin icon at the top right of the screen).

Create Your Citations

When you are looking at a Page 1+ record, you will see a Citations option under "Send To." Use this to automatically format a citation in APA, Chicago/Turabian, MLA or IEEE style.

Pro Tip: If you want to create multiple citations, we strongly recommend using free citation management software, such as Zotero.
