Federated searching and academic libraries: One size fits all? Sarah Chandler Interim Coordinator, Technical Services, Catherwood Library Nan Hyland Coordinator of Information Services, Mann Library Cornell University

Federated Searching Limitations: Less refined searching Lowest common denominator for databases Not for the advanced PhD student/faculty member Benefits: Works well for novice users Serves as introduction to useful databases

Usability Tests Conducted fall semester 2002 Student and faculty focus groups Paper (Oct. 2002), computer (Nov. 2002)

Usage Log Analysis Questions we had: Who is using the Find Databases/Find Articles system? How are they using the system? Will people only go to Find Articles?

Methodology ENCompass Oracle usage log MS Access queries Apache log MS Access queries Perl script combining the two Exported to Excel for statistical analysis

Findings Top three databases in each module Percentage split of modules Limitations to analysis Implications for future usability tests

Conclusion More experienced users go to Find Databases Less experienced users go to Find Articles Neither module is used exclusively Determining how the system is used requires more qualitative analysis, such as usability testing.

What now? Refine stats collections and queries Set up methodology for library system to follow Suggest new usability tests
