User search-limiting behavior in online catalogs: Comparing classic catalog use to search behavior in next-generation catalogs
Gives a brief overview of characteristics of the next-generation catalogue, and looks at differences in user searching behavior between classic and next gen.
"Next generation catalogs have been developed as a reaction to the perception that web catalogs were not user friendly enough to be effective in the Age of Google. Their design reflects the theory that users will take advantage of search limiting if the options are laid out before them rather than forcing them to go to a further screen to accomplish this. Usage data reported here overwhelmingly supports the notion that the new catalogs are accomplishing their mission quite well."
