Sinopsis
In the context of libraries, 'discovery' is the process of finding appropriate resources to meet an information need. We are in a new age of discovery where technology has enabled today's researchers to explore increasingly vaster realms of information more efficiently than ever before.
What cutting-edge tools and services are emerging from the growing suite of discovery interfaces and indexes? Where is 'discovery' going, and what tools and techniques are emerging as standard elements in the library technology toolbox?
Exploring Discovery
examines the range of discovery-focused tools and technologies being deployed by libraries and provides a series of case studies illustrating the interfaces and technologies that can be used by libraries today.The key topics covered include:
vendor-provided web scale discovery platforms
using discovery vendors in small and mid-sized libraries
libraries, archives and museums sharing a single discovery tool
custom discovery systems built with open-source software including Blacklight
discovery on a shoestring
integrating discovery to improve user experience
different discovery interfaces
metadata challenges in discovery services
Open Access and discovery tools
