For an overview of the new features, check out this video. Note that many databases have customized features that will not be covered in this video.

Access to Atla Religion's "scripture index" has relocated. Here's how to navigate to it.

Additionally, the database Nexis Uni also developed a new search interface that includes interactive visualizations of search results and content summarization.  For a brief overview of new features of Nexis Uni, check out this video. Please note that links to the old Nexis Uni platform will no longer work and will need to be updated.
