Any published benchmarks between Google, FAST, Verity, Autonomy, or other enterprise se... - 0 views

  •  
    "The Google Search Appliance (GSA) is a black-box system in that you install it, set up your options, and it runs. It is certainly standards-based: it indexes HTML and other popular formats; and the results are typically defined using XML and style sheets. But the options you can customize with regard to data sources, relevance ranking, and extended search (thesaurus, taxonomies, and parametric or faceted search) are somewhat limited. FAST, Autonomy/Verity K2, OmniFind and other traditional enterprise search engines have always been toolkits. You install the software and begin the process of customizing it for your environment. Data in databases or content repositories? No problem. Custom security implementation? Modify the indexing and search methods. Have custom thesauri or existing taxonomies? Plug them in. Need parametric or faceted search results? Small matter of programming - although not much. Want to change the way results are ranked or sorted? Use the native query syntax - for example, FAST Query Language (FQL) or the Verity Query Language (VQL)."

Better Search: Libraries or Engines? | Search Engine Watch (SEW) - 0 views

  •  
    "The Engines win by a landslide, at least according to current college students. They preferred searching on Google or Yahoo versus their college library systems, based on the attributes of: speed (90%); convenience (84%); ease of use (87%); cost-effectiveness (71%); and reliability (63%). Libraries, however, won on more trustworthy measures including credibility (77%) and accuracy (76%). While students prefer library sources, they also heavily count on the engines. Over half (53%) say the results from engines are as trustworthy as libraries. Google, Yahoo and Ask all rank about the same, without much differentiation."

Implementing a Real-Time Suggestion Service in a Library Discovery Layer | The Code4Lib... - 0 views

  •  
    "As part of an effort to improve user interactions with authority data in its online catalog, the UNC Chapel Hill Libraries have developed and implemented a system for providing real-time query suggestions from records found within its catalog. The system takes user input as it is typed to predict likely title, author, or subject matches in a manner functionally similar to the systems found on commercial websites such as google.com or amazon.com. This paper discusses the technologies, decisions and methodologies that went into the implementation of this feature, as well as analysis of its impact on user search behaviors."

Summon, quezaco? | Ma(g) BU - 0 views

  •  
    "Le principe de base de Summon est: la recherche doit être simple, l'accès aux résultats aussi. Sauf que ce n'est pas forcément la vision qu'ont les bibliothécaires. Exemple? Summon utilise un créateur de liens qui ne rend qu'une ressource pour un titre donné. Si le titre est paru dans plusieurs références, on n'y a pas accès. Les bibliothécaires préfèrent avoir toutes les références, persuadés qu'ils sont que les « chercheurs » préféreraient aussi. Alors quel intérêt d'avoir un outil de recherches qui ne reprend que les sources que vous avez déjà? Comment vous dire…je ne sais pas. En ce qui concerne les étudiants -du moins les licence- qui ont l'habitude faire la majorité de leurs recherches sur Google, je ne suis pas persuadé de l'intérêt de Summon. Pour les chercheurs, ils ont des habitudes, des sources préférées, et le fait de ne pas afficher -de prime abord- toutes les sources pourrait leur déplaire, ou leur compliquer la tâche. Pour les bibliothécaires, il y aurait des items à modifier, il faudrait indiquer toutes les sources, ce qui contrarie le commercial (!)."

Google Fast Flip - 0 views

  •  
    "Cette application web permet aux internautes d'accéder à des articles présentés sous la forme de pages web (vignettes) et de les feuilleter (flip) virtuellement. Les articles sont classés par catégories : technologies, économie, politique, divertissement, articles les plus populaires, etc. L'internaute peut passer très rapidement d'un article à l'autre en pointant sur les flèches à droite ou à gauche des séries de vignettes. Lorsque l'internaute double-clique sur un article/vignette, il accède directement au site web du journal concerné. Néanmoins, en un seul clic, la lecture depuis la vignette choisie est aisée."

Evaluation of Federated Searching Options for the School Library | American Association... - 0 views

  •  
    "Three hosted federated search tools, Follett One Search, Gale PowerSearch Plus, and WebFeat Express, were configured and implemented in a school library. Databases from five vendors and the OPAC were systematically searched. Federated search results were compared with each other and to the results of the same searches in the database's native interface to disclose differences in handling query syntax, searching, retrieval, browsing results, etc. Each product was easily configured, but none were capable of searching every database desired. Simpler Boolean queries are the most successful queries because of the underlying structure and differences of the databases, and the capabilities of certain products. Federated search products succeed in simplifying access to multiple database resources at school, but searching remains different from the familiar Web search engines in many ways. To become more Google-like, federated searching must be done against indexes built in advance instead of the current real-time searching method."

Boolify Project: An Educational Boolean Search Tool - 0 views

  •  
    "Librarians, teachers and parents have told us how hard it is for students to understand web searching. Boolify makes it easier for students to understand their web search by illustrating the logic of their search, and by showing them how each change to their search instantly changes their results. It's simple, immediate and easy to use with your class or in your library. Search results are presented through Google's "Safe Search STRICT" technology. There are two important caveats: a) no filtering technology is 100% secure, as this blog posting astutely points out and 2) we are unable to control or modify the results that we provide, beyond the filtering settings available through Google."

OpenSearch and SRU: A Continuum of Searching | Information Technology & Libraries; Sep2... - 0 views

  •  
    "Not all library content can be exposed as HTML pages for harvesting by search engines such as Google and Yahoo!. If a library instead exposes its content through a local search interface, that content can then be found by users of metasearch engines such as A9 and Vivísimo. The functionality provided by the local search engine will affect the functionality of the metasearch engine and the findability of the library's content. This paper describes that situation and some emerging standards in the metasearch arena that choose different balance points between functionality and ease of implementation. "

    "A simple componentised framework constructed in Javascript to enable the sharing of Ajax Style extensions to a web interface. Although the drive for this is rooted in Library OPAC interfaces, the framework is applicable to any environment which, via identifiers contained within a html page, needs to link to or embed external resources.
