VOYAGER ONLINE CATALOG

VOYAGER—INDIVIDUAL RECORD

ONLINE CATALOG TO FACILITATE SUCCESSFUL SEARCH

Search to help a researcher find what she or he wants

Need to provide 1) broad net to find “all” that is out there, 2) narrow down to relevant resources, and 3) a way to do known item searching

Intuitive navigation between results Need to allow the user to figure out the

easiest way to get this content, whether full-text book, article, print resource, archive, dataset, image, etc.

NEXT GEN SEARCH CAN ALLOW:

Integration of formats (and the accompanying metadata)

Better inclusion of table of contents (as part of MARC record or as separate element to search)

Relevancy ranking of terms, names and phrases within the index of book or the actual content of the full-text book

Interconnectivity of resources – moving from citation to citation (as more and more resources are in digital form)

MORE AND MORE METADATA AT OUR FINGERTIPS

Digitization projects – Google, Microsoft, Open Content Alliance, Amazon, Million Book Project, EU digitization project, etc.

ONIX feeds from publishers and vendors Using METS and ATOM to create file

structure to pull these desperate data elements together

Using OAI-PMH or OAI-ORE to harvest data from various sources

OCLC’s work to provide comprehensive uber-metadata records for all resources, combining data from libraries and publishers to create
