Explore the use of library methods in competing with other approaches for accessing content. This project focuses on computational, text-based search techniques and systems that leverage the opinions and actions of individuals and communities. Determine the role of KO resources, such as authority files, subject headings, thesauri, and classification schemes, in relation to these approaches.

Environment • Library methods competing with other approaches for accessing content • Computational, text-based search techniques (Web search engines) • Systems that exploit the opinions and actions of individuals & communities • Need to determine role of KO resources (authority files, subject headings, thesauri, classification schemes, etc.) in relation to these approaches
Classes of Services • Register • Search • Resolve • Navigate • Decompose • Enhance • Transform
Levels of Services • Basic • Enhanced • Experimental
Basic Services • Relatively easy • Useful • Can offer quality service • Gain experience • Examples • Transform the syntax • Artificial satellites—Mars—Orbits > $a Artificial satellites $z Mars $x Orbits • 629.43’4 > 629.43/4 > 629.434 • Navigate a hierarchy • Artificial satellites • BT Space vehicles
Enhanced Services • More complex • Exploit unique OCLC resources, e.g., • WorldCat • Genre terms/LCSH • DDC/LCSH • DDC • FAST • PAIS
Enhanced Services • DDC/LCSH relationships
Experimental Services • More complex • Outcome uncertain • Longer lead time to develop • Automatic classification • ePrints-UK • Record enhancement
