Summary
One of TRIP’s selling points is its comprehensive collection of guidelines, and at the time of writing (July 2018), TRIP’s major source of U.S guidelines, the National Guideline Clearinghouse, had Usability. TRIP’s platform is designed to give quick access to results, so there is no controlled vocabulary. Boolean operators are not required if you are combining terms with AND, but must be used if you are combining. TRIP allows the use of parentheses to add more complex syntax. Within TRIP’s platform you cannot see your search history unless you are logged into your personal account. Past searches are not numbered, and the user must count the number of lines and manually enter the line numbers to combine them (e.g., #1 AND #2). According to TRIP’s blog, if you are looking for the ability to combine strings into more complex searches with ease, you will want to subscribe to TRIP Pro [6]
