Assistance with the selection list with immediate terms

As you enter characters in the search field, TinREAD program suggests that there are words in fields in which search results are obtained.

Assistance by suggesting

When the user typing wrong word or words you search program provides choice correct. By selecting the word proposed, which is considered closest to the one you want, automatically starts running and looking. The program displays the message: "Did you mean ..." followed by proposed variants.

Reads "Google type"

Data documents are displayed sorted by relevance. Establishing relevance for information made the difference between search engine Google and its competitors. TinREAD allows the user to sort information based on an algorithm that has access. Each field in which the searcher has a certain importance. For example, if the word is found in the search field provided, then that record is considered more important than another in which that word is found in field notes.

By default, the system has enabled ¾ algorithm. By applying an intelligent search mechanism if the user searches, for example, four words at once, the system displays the first records were found all four words, then those that were found in only three. Records have been found just two words are displayed as they are considered not relevant enough and remain outside algorimului four quarters.

Users can choose any of 18 forms of display coupled with the desired sorted (ascending or descending. This can be achieved by selecting the box to the right, above, which sees the default option "Relevance AZ.

Rank (Ranking) registered

All records can be assessed WebOPAC accessible by users. These ratings are automatically calculated by the program on a synthetic image aoferi assessment which has acquired the document with users who have consulted.

Also in this category and display the default front page, into the WebOPAC module. Three types of sorting after no. loans, after no. for reservations made after assessment of users provides a starting point for those who do not come with a clear idea of what they seek.

Sharing / Social Networking

TinREAD information can be transmitted from more than 50 social networking sites and specific services such shared by users via Web 2.0 mechanisms defined and exploited at this time. Pressing "Bookmark" allow open windows that you can access any of the information transfer links to social networks.

Lists favorite titles

Users have the ability to save lists of favorite documents. They can be kept only for them (private lists) or can be shared by all other users WebOPAC they attend (public list). This service module is part of selective dissemination of information (SDI).

Anyone can subscribe via RSS to any list to find out when new documents were added, without having to always come and investigate the program TinREAD WebOPAC section.

Show faceted (Refine Search)

Once a search and display the result, users can refine one to find the information they need. Refining searches can be done by selecting different criteria are available in refining the left side of the screen.

Criteria by which to refine a search, essentially allowing a search in the search already done are:

    * Author's name;
    * Place of occurrence;
    * Publisher;
    * Year of birth;
    * Document language;
    * Department / service point (location).

For each of these elements of refining the search is apparent that the number of references that match the selected criteria.

Other important factors are highlighted in the box that appears as a cloud topics present in bibliographic records that were found and meet the general criterion of the initial search. Display type Subject cloud is also a modern method of enhancement of these subjects share presence in the records found in the search. The topic is written in older (larger size) means that the more it is found in bibliographic descriptions resulting from the search.

News bulletin

Finally, the last box on the left side of the screen presents news bulletin. Documents selected and marked by librarians as new documents, with voucher generation appear in the position of the screen.

An important function is given by data syndication. Either opped readers subscribe via RSS to track changes and appearance following new bulletins that report documents entered into library collections using TinREAD program.

Filtering Options

In the top left of the screen, just below the simple search field, is the button "Options." Here you can make data filtering criteria such as how documents called for librarians and bibliographic level, ie whether books, serials, collections, parts of books, serials, AV materials. Also, data filtering can be done and by type of support that is information (eg. Paper, disks, network data, microfilm, magnetic tape, etc.).. Finally, data can be shown and localization criterion. Thus each criterion or combination can be used to find the documents after the bibliographical and support are in a particular department / service point (location).

Browsing a list of search displayed

For efficiency, the number of documents on the screen may be set by the user in steps of 10, 20 or 50.

Searches for documents showing the number exceeds the number set to be displayed on one page, separate pages are created. They are numbered and can be accessed independently. They are arranged so the top of the list of results displayed, and the bottom, to decrease the number of commands that a user makes during browsing.

Very useful is the information specifying the number of documents that have met the criteria and resulting from the search. They give a quantitative summary report which is especially significant since the filters were applied and faceted search best relative to user needs.
