- federated search portalThe direct route from information discovery to content delivery
ZPORTAL has proven itself as the single search - often referred to as a federated search - environment of choice for hundreds of libraries across Europe, North America and Australasia.
One of the first of its kind, ZPORTAL offers libraries the chance to layer a single / federated search environment across its catalogue, its e-resources and approved external websites - offering end-users an internet search engine feel, but with the safeguard of searching 'professional approved' content.
ZPORTAL also takes the user directly to available e-resources, where they exist and integrates with ILL services, to provide a total discovery to delivery solution - in one.
If your organization fits one of these categories, then people like you use ZPORTAL to package their resources:
- Academic institutions
- NHS, Health & Government
- Pharmaceutical/R&D
- Special libraries
- Regional & state libraries
Here's why you should look at ZPORTAL
- Integration of widest possible collection of resources thanks to choice of compatible data harvesting tools.
- Non-searchable resources integrated into 'one stop shop' for users
- Works with authentication services to control access to the most appropriate resources
- Efficient and seamless access to full text without further authentication
- Focused searching as resources are profiled to users' specific needs
- Options for naive and advanced users, both with intuitive user interface
- Efficient display of results ensures fast response for users
- Range of personalization features including saved searches, saved lists, filtering, sorting and de-duplication
With the choice to deliver as a full-screen information portal, or as a 'portlet' embedded in your intranet, KM system or institution portal, ZPORTAL puts the power of single search right where your users want it.
