Guide to Databases Now Included in "GALILEO Discover Tool @GPC"

Which databases will currently be searched when using the "Discover GALILEO" search box?  If you are like me and need a reminder, there is a  chart which I have printed and placed at the "back" Reference Desk to replace the out-of-date one. 
This chart is also posted as a library guide at:  http://guides.gpc.edu/content.php?pid=43455&sid=4684268
The chart lists the databases which are fully searchable,  as well as the "Limited" search databases and the "NOT INCLUDED" databases.
