Simultaneous Searches
When databases are in the same platform, they can usually be searched at the same time. Platforms that give you this option are EBSCOhost and ProQuest. You will still be able to set the limiters for each database. Look for "Add databases" or "Change databases" to create the search. Here are some examples of databases you can search simultaneously: Library & Information Science Source/Business Source Complete/Hospitality and Tourism Index in EBSCOhost platform and Library Science Database/Linguistics and Language Behavior Abstracts in ProQuest Platform.
