24. How does it affect instruction?

25. Less click-by-click instruction User does not leave IDS Search to use other services (OPAC, World Cat, ILLiad, spell check) Focus on research concepts not Web site navigation. As IDS Search is user friendly, can introduce ILL at earlier stages. Information Literacy Instruction

26. IDS Search and Reference Integrates ILL functionality into time sensitive reference transaction. Reference transaction for ILL easier (one easy to use interface and tool) Leverages IDS Project quick turnaround times for positive transactions. Easy permalinks for virtual reference.

27. Auto Search If a search results in zero hits, IDS Search will automatically widen the search for the user: Maintain users search terms Remove any search limits Change the scope to world wide Change the index to key word Change the sort order to relevance * Auto Search assures that the user is presented with search results.

36. Librarian Testimonial Today at the front desk a student asked about GRE reviews. We searched the collection, and found no suitable records, we searched books and media [using IDS Search], the student found the perfect book. I helped him set up his ILLiad account and he ordered the book. He was very pleased. Thank you!
