2 What is CUIPID? Catalog User Interface Platform for Iterative Development  Project of the Digital Initiatives Unit at the University of Rochester Libraries  CUIPID is a technology platform that enables iterative, user-centered design of new catalog user interfaces  It will help us relate metadata and user needs.

3 CUIPID Roadmap Usability Issues and Opportunities FRBR Model UB Alternative Catalog Stanford XOBIS Influences

4 Users must select a search type.  Example:  Choose “title” if you know exact title, or the beginning of the title  Choose “title keyword” if you know some words in title  Users must select the correct type for optimal or acceptable results Usability Issue

5 Users should not enter initial articles.  Initial articles are “a” “an” and “the”  Certain search types are left-anchored and user must leave off initial articles when these are used

6 Usability Issue Users must undestand what a left-anchored title search is and when it is called for.  Some search types are, some aren’t  Patron is looking for the “Journal of Cell Biology”  Patron selects Journal Title for search type and enters:  “Cell Biology” – fails  “Journal of Cell Biology” - success  “Journal of Cell” - success

7 Users must use “set limits” to navigate large result sets.  User needs to resubmit search  Too many choices for language, location, etc  Date limits confusing Usability Issue

8 Users don’t understand the invisible boundaries of our information islands.  Users search for journal articles in the catalog  Users search for books in website search

9 Collecting multiple records to print, save, or is confusing.  Too many buttons and choices  Layout confusing  Doesn’t remember choices between different results pages Usability Issue

10 Opportunity Libraries should hide the technology. Systems  Online Catalog  Website  Databases  Interlibrary Loan Features  Search Engines  Authentication Mechanisms  Requests

11 Opportunity Incorporate other content indices  Course pages  Web pages (subject guides)  Institutional Repositories  Digital content repositories

12 Provide automatic spelling suggestions  Voyager Catalog  Google  RCL Site Search  CUIPID Opportunity

13 Opportunity Support number searching whether spelled out or numerical

14 Opportunity Provide more useful information with record displays.  Display suggestions of other titles instead of just subject headings  Book cover images, sample pages  Reviews  Recommendations  Donor information

15 Opportunity Provide context-sensitive services based on circulation status Examples:  If item is available, provide a stack map  If item is checked-out, provide a recall form  If item is lost, provide an interlibrary loan request form

16 Opportunity Automatically recognize journal title abbreviations  Interpreting citations with journal title abbreviations is difficult without extensive knowledge or a reference book  This can be accomplished with a web-service that can translate abbreviation to full-title

17 CUIPID Roadmap Usability Issues and Opportunities FRBR Model UB Alternative Catalog Stanford XOBIS Influences

18 FRBR Model AACR2 FRBR MARC Anglo-American Cataloging Rules Machine Readable Cataloging Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records ? ? AACR3 ?

19 FRBR Example  What might FRBR accomplish for users?  Here is an example…

20 FRBR Example

21 FRBR Example Susan B. Anthony Keyword Search – Top Hits 1) Biography 2) Biography 3) Biography 4) Susan B. Anthony Preservation District 5) Her Writings 6) Biography 7) Biography 8) Biography 9) Correspondence 10) Virgil Thomson opera recording 11) Biography 12) Proceedings of her Trial 13) Virgil Thomson opera recording 14) Music from the Ken Burns film 15) The Ken Burns film 16) Biography 17) Biography 18) Analysis of her writings 19) Women’s Studies Newsletter 20) Her papers 21) Biography

22 FRBR Example

23 FRBR Example

24 FRBR Example

25 FRBR Example  Why is this better?  Collocation: materials with the same or related content are grouped together.  Easier navigation through search results  Precise results with simple search queries.

26 What is FRBR?  Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records  IFLA publication, 1998  A conceptual model, not a standard  Relates bibliographic data to user tasks  Tools and rules are available

27 FRBR Entities GGroup 1 WWork, Expression, Manifestation, Item PProducts of intellectual or artistic endeavor GGroup 2 PPerson, Corporate Body TThose responsible for intellectual or artistic content GGroup 3 CConcept, Object, Event, Place SServe as subjects of works

28 FRBR Group 1 Entities  Work  Expression  Manifestation  Item Goethe’s “Faust” L. Filmore’s English translation of Faust As published by W. Smith, 1847 The copy owned by my library

33 CUIPID Roadmap Usability Issues and Opportunities FRBR Model UB Alternative Catalog Stanford XOBIS Influences Videos / DVDs Audio / CDs eJournals Project Timeline Site Search SARA CUIPID Voyager

34 DVDs and Videos Why?  Common queries were for specific titles, genres and directors  Voyager just didn’t cut it  Not browse-able  Cumbersome limits page to work through  Integration with website  UC Berkeley example Videos / DVDs

35 DVDs and Videos What? WWeb interface for searching and browsing DVD and Videos collection FFully automated system MMaintain data in Voyager AAllow users to search by keyword, and browse by title, genre, language, and director CCustomized metadata display on results screen DDemo Videos / DVDs

36 ColdFusion Architecture - Videos Metadata Index User Interface Voyager SQL database MARC INDEX Voyager UI SQL database Videos Cached Queries Find Videos/DVDs

37 DVDs and Videos (etc) “DVDs and Videos” is related to FRBR  Primary language = expression level attribute  Genre = work-level attribute  User needs for metadata  Unknowingly implemented aspects of FRBR Videos / DVDs
