Save Your Research

When you perform your research, the search terms, documents, and other activities from your research are automatically saved in your history for up to 90 days. However, if you want to save this research indefinitely, you can save them to Folders.

To do this:

1. After running a search and reviewing your results, do one of the following:

   • To save a search, from the results list, select the Actions drop-down list (near the top of the page) and select Add search to folder. The Add to Folder dialog box appears. Proceed to Step 3.

   • To save one or more documents from the results list, select the checkbox next to each document you want to save, then select the Add to folder icon at the top of your results. A list of options for saving the document appears. Either choose an existing folder from the list (in which case, your items are saved and you're finished), or select Choose a Folder and skip to Step 2.

   • To save a full document, select the Add to folder icon at the top of the document. A list of options for saving the document appears. Either choose an existing folder from the list (in which case, your items are saved and you're finished), or select Choose a Folder and skip to Step 2

2. At the Selected Documents tab of the Add to Folder form that appears, enter a title for the items you want to save (select Edit all titles to do this), or keep the title that is displayed.
3. At the Save Options tab, choose any of these options, depending on whether you're saving a search or saving a document:

   What do you want to save?	Choose whether you want to save the documents you've specifically selected or the full results list for your search. Note: If you are viewing the full document, the Results list option isn't available.
   Notes	Type any notes about your research in the Notes box.
   Save In	Select the folder you want to add the items to, or select the Create New Folder button to create a new folder.

4. Optionally, at the Share With Others tab, enter the name or email address of the person you want to share with, and then click Add to Share.

   Note: To share with others within your network or group of users, enter the peer's name. To share with users outside your group, enter the user's email address. Click Add to Share to add the name to the list.

5. Click Save to save the items.
