Abstract

SilverPlatter has developed ERL (Electronic Reference Library) as a software tool to address the major aspects of providing a complete electronic library service. ERL is unique in that it is designed to provide opportunities for publishers, software companies, and systems vendors to make their expert products available to libraries. ERL through collaborations with information and system vendors serve as the conduit through which libraries will have access, not to hundreds, but thousands of databases, regardless of media, as well as software products. And it will provide arganizational tools to manage and track use of the electronic information collection

Abstract: Keyword and Boolean searching modes are now becoming more commonly available on OPACs, and questions have arisen regarding their use by library patrons. Which patrons use keyword searching, and which do not? This study attempts to begin providing answers to this question in the context of an academic library that uses Northwestern Online Total Integrated System (NOTIS) online catalog

Abstract

Keyword and Boolean searching modes are now becoming more commonly available on online public access catalogs, and questions have arisen regarding their use by library patrons. How difficult do users perceive these searches to be? Do those who use them tend to rely on them all the time to the exclusion of all other methods? This study attempts to provide answers to these questions in the context of an academic library that uses the Northwestern Online Total Integrated System Online catalog

Abstract

As more sophisticated searching capabilities become available on OPACs, librarians must wonder whether providing them is worthwhile. In order to determine whether users and nonusers of capabilities such as keyword and Boolean searching actually know how to use them properly, a survey was conducted of users of the NOTIS in Indiana State University Library. Results show a low degree of knowledge about keyword searching and points to the need for a built-in, easily used capability that does not require users to learn all the difficult precepts to be paid to automated aids to determining correct terminology for searching
