Xerxes

Xerxes is a federated article database search tool, which is a fancy way of saying that it searches a ton of academic article databases at one time (grouped by subject) and returns the search results in a unified list. With Xerxes, researchers don’t need to search ten different databases one at a time.

I refreshed the existing design of Xerxes to bring the design more in line with the current Kennedy Library site styling as well as to improve the user experience with searching and saving records.

(The redesigned Xerxes is not yet live but will be launched after additional features are implemented.)
