  1. Search Revolution: Layered Simplicity Marshall Breeding Director for Innovative Technology and Research Vanderbilt University Library Founder and Publisher, Library Technology Guides http://www.librarytechnology.org/ http://twitter.com/mbreeding Oct 29, 2010 TENN-Share Fall Conference 2010

  2. Abstract • A new generation of discovery products have emerged that streamline and modernize searching across library catalogs, article databases, and digital collections. They provide users a simpler way to access the full breadth of library collections, while providing more appealing presentation and more powerful search and selection capabilities.  Can these products support a state-wide discovery platform spanning a large number of library catalogs as well as the content offered through TEL? Marshall Breeding will describe the current technologies, products, and trends in this area.

  3. New models of Library Collection Discovery From OPACs to local, social, and Web-scale discovery

  4. Evolution of library collection discovery tools • Bound handwritten catalogs • Card Catalogs • Library online catalogs – OPACs • Next-Gen Catalogs / Discovery interfaces • Social Discovery • Web-scale discovery services • Comprehensive presentation layer services

  14. Disjointed approach to information and service delivery • Silos Prevail • Books: Library OPAC (ILS module) • Articles: Aggregated content products, e-journal collections • OpenURL linking services • E-journal finding aids (Often managed by link resolver) • Subject guides (e.g. SpringshareLibGuides) • Local digital collections • ETDs, photos, rich media collections • Metasearch engines • All searched separately

  15. Federated Search • Simultaneous search of library catalog and selected remote resources of electronic content • Based on live, dynamic queries cast to multiple targets • Limited result sets, slow performance • Search and retrieval protocols: Z39.50, XML gateways

  16. Federated Search products • Ex Libris: MetaLib • WebFeat • Serials Solutions: 360 Search • Innovative Interfaces: Research Pro

  17. Federated Search ILS Data Digital Collections Search: ProQuest Search Results EBSCOhost … MLA Bibliography ABC-CLIO Real-time query and responses

  18. Modernized Interface • Single search box • Query tools • Did you mean • Type-ahead • Relevance ranked results • Faceted navigation • Enhanced visual displays • Cover art • Summaries, reviews, • Recommendation services

  30. Differentiation in Discovery • Products increasingly specialized between public and academic libraries • Public libraries: emphasis on engagement with physical collection • Academic libraries: concern for discovery of heterogeneous material types, especially books + articles + digital objects

  31. Discovery from Local to Web-scale • Initial products focused on technology • AquaBrowser, Endeca,Primo, Encore,VuFind • Mostly locally-installed software • Current phase focused on pre-populated indexes that aim to deliver Web-scale discovery • Summon (Serials Solutions) • WorldCat Local (OCLC) • EBSCO Discovery Service (EBSCO) • Primo Central • Encore with Article Integration

  32. Web-scale Discovery ILS Data Digital Collections Search: ProQuest EBSCOhost Search Results Consolidated Index … MLA Bibliography ABC-CLIO Pre-built harvesting and indexing

  33. State-wide Discovery ILS Data Vanderbilt Digital Collections Search: EBSCO ILS Data: Nashville Public Search Results Consolidated Index … ILS Data: UTK ILS Data: Tinn-Share Pre-built harvesting and indexing

  34. Web-scale Search + Federated Search ILS Data Digital Collections Search: ProQuest … Consolidated Index Search Results MLA Bibliography ABC-CLIO Pre-built harvesting and indexing FedSearch Non-harvestable Resources Interim model to deal with resources not possible to harvest into consolidated index

  35. Pre-populated discovery services • New-generation interface • Harvested local content • ILS metadata • Institutional repositories, ETDs, Digital Collection platforms • Vendor-supplied indexes of library content • E-journals, databases, e-books • Full-text and metadata corresponding to e-content subscriptions • Book collections beyond local library collections

  36. Web-scale search Competitors • Serials Solutions • Summon • EBSCO Publishing • EBSCO Discovery Service • Ex Libris • Primo Central • OCLC • WorldCat Local

  45. Social Discovery • Builds on modernized library catalog interfaces • Strong emphasis on Web 2.0 concepts • Users invited to contribute reviews, ratings, preferences, reading lists, etc. • User-supplied data becomes part of the discovery process • Users help each other to find interesting library materials • Example: Leverage use data for a recommendation service of scholarly content based on link resolver data: Ex LibrisbX service
