Saving Searches in databases
Sometimes you'll come upon an issue with search results in a database, like EBSCO, where the searches you perform do not always save when you come back to them, even when using the permalink. An easy fix to this is to create an account with the database (for EBSCO you can create one using gmail), then click Share-->Add to folder-->results. Then you can revisit the exact set of results, in order, at anytime. Proquest has similar features as well.
