New "Save to Folder" Feature from Facts on File

All News Services databases now offer 'Save to Folder' tools. This new feature allows users to save content to a personalized folder for later retrieval within a session or during a later database visit.

Users can create personalized folders by clicking on the 'Folder Sign-In' link found in the upper right-hand corner of content pages, then entering an email address and creating a password. Multiple users within a single customer account can create unique folder sign-ins for any authorized databases. The same sign-in name and password can be used for each FOFNS database. Users can also save items to a 'Guest' folder without signing in to a personalized folder, but the folder will be emptied automatically when the browser window is closed.

Searchable content, except for Reuters® articles in World News Digest, can be saved to a folder. To save an item in any database to a folder, users simply click on the folder icon found in the upper right-hand corner of savable content pages. A plus sign appears on the folder when the item has been saved.

To access saved items, users click on the 'Saved Items' link, also found in the upper right-hand corner of content pages. If the user is signed in to a folder, a pop-up window will appear with links to content from that database saved during the current and previous sessions. If a user is not signed in, only items saved during the current session will be displayed. Clicking a link takes the user directly to the saved item and removes the pop-up window. Clicking again on the 'Saved Items' link restores it.
