- Abstract
- Describes a research project which studied the interaction between screen design, menu interfaces and the search results obtained by users. A literature review surveys the research in theses areas, including methods used to evaluate OPACs. Draws up a set of design guidelines for menu interfaces. Two versions of the OPAC a Porirua Public Library in New Zealand were available, 1 used 'good' menu design and the other contravened the guidelines. The difference between 'no-hit' rates for the 2 terminals was not statistically significant, indicating that other factors must be considered
