    6.1 - Private Library

    We have implemented the capability of saving abstracts in a "private library", enabling users quick access to articles they commonly use or reference. To add abstracts to your private library, click on the Add this article to private library button at the bottom of any abstract page, or to add multiple abstracts at a time, select the abstracts in a results list and click on Add selected articles to private library at the bottom of the list.

    Your private library is directly linked to your cookie, so this feature will not be available if you have cookies disabled. This means that if for whatever reason your cookie changes or is lost, the contents of your private library will get lost as well. It also means that your private library is website-specific, so if you start using a different ADS mirror, your private library will not be available there. If you decide to set up your own private library, please make sure to set your email address in your preferences for the abstract service. These preferences can be accessed on the Abstract Service Preferences Form. This will allow you to recover your cookie in case it gets lost. Unfortunately this happens rather frequently. Use the Reset Cookie Form to recover lost cookies.
