Smart search or smart sales pitch

I have L10 Portfolio as well as numerous resources I have purchased separately or in bundles but It seems that no matter how many resources I buy the results of smart search largely reference titles I have not purchased> Is this a clever sales tactic or do I need to change my settings?

    If you have Search set to All, it will include books from the store that you don't have. If you switch to Books, the search will be restricted to just your library.

    Is there a synopsis also on the "Books" tab? That would be fantastic, especially if search can be restricted to collections, authors, resource types etc.

    Unfortunately I lost access to the early features at the same time that synopsis was released, so I can no longer check... Waiting for the 2-year-subscription and academic discount now.

    Just imagine, asking the same questions on different collections sorted by denomination, time of publication, or author. Huge impact on research possibilities.

    Ah, I see! Thanks

    Interestingly the title of the first article was "hidden in plain sight"!!!
