- Abstract
- An OPAC user study was carried out at Stockholm University Library, 1987, involving 500 randomly chosen library users, a questionnaire and 136 responses. The object was to study patron use and general attitudes to the OPAC and to determine whether any differences in attitudes and searching behaviour could be found between different user categories. The advantages and disadvantages of the OPAC are noted

- Abstract
- 3 months of transaction records from the INNOPAC online catalogue, at Adelphi University, New York, were examined. Patron searchers rely on the standard access points of subject, title, and author for nearly 90% of their searches. Library employees search by title nearly 50% of the time. Title searching predominated among technical services staff as well as public service staff. Approximately 30% of staff searches and 40% of patron searches retrieved no records. Patrons were 10 times more likely than staff to make a search resulting in 500 or more hits

- Abstract
- The degree of variability in the percentage of subject searching in an online public access catalog (OPAC) among branch libraries of one university was studied. A full semester's worth of transactions was analyzed, not sampled. The time units used were hour of the day, day of the week, and week of the semester. The findings show that subject searching varies from a low of 22% to a high of 74% over the hours of a day. Variability for the days of the week ranged from 17% to 64%, and for the weeks of the semester variability ranged from 12% to 70%. Valuable management information on the utilization of the OPAC within each brach library and among all the branch libraries is provided through numerous charts and graphs.
