The NetLibrary eContent website has been upgraded to provide users with improved search performance, a fresh new look and feel, and powerful navigation tools. Based on extensive usability testing and library feedback, the NetLibrary site has been re-engineered to offer the highest levels of speed, reliability and user convenience.
Automatic summarisation now enables users to find the materials they are looking for quickly by providing a brief summary of eContent through the search results. Automatic spelling checks of a query term recognize commonly misspelled words and offer alternative spellings. Users can narrow search results by entering an additional search term or terms to drill down to relevant content. NetLibrary recognizes ambiguous search terms and provides recommendations for refining queries.
NetLibrary's new search technology keeps track of past queries during a session and allows users to easily return to search results. Query response will match performance indicators of leading Web search engines, typically offering response times of two seconds or less regardless of the search term or type of search.
A sleek new look and feel of the NetLibrary Web interface 4.0, combined with simple intuitive navigation, makes it easier to search across multiple formats, related databases and online resources. Non-English language support offers users the ability to conduct searches and view results for content available in their native language. Supported languages include English, French, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Thai.
