Online Catalog Search: Search Results ILS Data
13
Disjointed approach to information and service delivery Silos Prevail Books: Library Online Catalog (ILS module) Articles: Aggregated content products, e-journal collections OpenURL linking services E-journal finding aids (Often managed by link resolver) Subject guides (e.g. Springshare LibGuides) Local digital collections ETDs, photos, rich media collections Metasearch engines All searched separately
