Abstract

The aims of the QUALCAT project were to: set up a large bibliographic database integrating records covering a range of material from a number of different databases by using USBC technology for cleaning, merging and control, develop an expert system to select the best records from a number of duplicate records; develop an expert system to link databases and centralized authority control; develop a fully automated quality control package for day to day running; and investigate interface problems for cataloguers using the system

Abstract

Describes a feasibility study funded by BLRDD to test a new concept in bibliographic control in OPACs based on the manifestation of the work. The research was conducted at Bradford University, leading directly from the QUALCAT project, and used bibliographic records supplied by OCLC. A new type of hierarchical bibliographic record structure was used to import sets of bibliographic records into a hierarchical relational database. This was used for an experimental Windows based OPAC. Much of the early part of the project was spent clarifying the practical and theoretical implications of the manifestations concept

Abstract

Describes work of the BOPAC2 project, funded by the British Library Research and Inoovation Centre, from Sep 1996 to Jan 1997, to investigate the issues involved in managing large and complex retrievals involving Z39.50 searches, including searches of multiple databases. The system is a WWW front end that allows simultaneously access to a number of library OPACs via Z39.50. The system is designed to make access to large and complex retrieval simpler, similar records are clustered together and retrievals may be sorted in a number of ways and by different criteria. Describes the design, development and evaluation of the system with suggestions for future work
