Author
Aaron Maierhofer, Serials Solutions, United Kingdom
Abstract
These enhancements to the Summon service are based on everything we’ve learned about discovery over the last 4 years while serving as the digital front door for some of the largest and most respected research libraries in the world. We’ve performed ongoing usability studies, listened carefully to our customers and analyzed volumes of data including search logs of millions of users performing hundreds of millions of searches across the Summon unified index. The result is we’ve learned a lot about how users do research and we will present an overview of our new enhancements.
