Blaisdell’s
Vision
“My own very deep hope is that instead of one
great, undifferentiated university, we might have
a
group
of institutions divided into
small colleges
-
somewhat on the Oxford type
-
around a library
and other utilities which they would
use in
common
. In this way I should hope to
preserve
the inestimable personal values of the small
college while securing the facilities of a great
university
.”
-
James A.

•
I
'm
not clear about the purpose and differences between these
products
•
I
haven't seen Primo at all yet
-
what does it do?
•
what's
the point? what are the advantages? how will this make our
students study/write better and therefore learn more?
•
What
is it, how do you use it best, when is in not appropriate, when
is it most appropriate, are there types of searches that do not work,
will it replace all of the intelligent databases that we currently use,
are we
dumbing
down all of the research skills that are so helpful in
life that we try to teach, are there lessons that can be learned from
search engines such as Sherlock
-
and are these lessons we should
be teaching, are these tools going to assist in doing the best
research possible, or just in doing a 'good enough' job, can I feel
confident in loving this tool?

Discussion
1.
How well does the relevance ranking algorithm perform
on subject(x)?
2.
How do we determine that?
3.
Is it bad/confusing for the patron to have different subject
facet terms appear for each search? Or is it quite good?
4.
How well does it work with
EndNote
,
RefWorks
(well!),
Zotero
(not well!)
5.
What are the key concepts in Primo?
6.
How is Sherlock alike and different from other databases?
7.
How will Sherlock help students?
Claremont Colleges Library
Staff Survey
Redux
•
Results
usually include one or two precise answers and thousands of irrelevant retrievals, or
relevant ones way too far down in the list to get to
-
also
-
too many newspaper articles come
up first.
•
I
used Primo last night to look for books by an author. I compared the results to
Blais
and
found out we just didn't have much. Primo was a little easier to use
-
it accepted the search
terms with diacritics.
Blais
found nothing and suggested "Did you mean"
without anything.
•
Sherlock was
easy to use and I like how it gathers all of the sources of the library into one list.
The only drawback for me was all of the articles that's included but then again if you only
want to look at books, there is a link for that
.
•
When
helping patrons with their research recently, we would do searches in an appropriate
database and then discuss findings. After we would do the search in Discovery. The students
were very excited at the number of hits, although when they looked closely they noticed that
many were duplicates, and many were not exactly right (sort of like a
google
result!).
However these discoveries did not bother them, they were still very happy with the results.
•
Searching
for material related to Bram Stoker and his involvement with an occult order called
the "Golden Dawn". Found lots of relevant material and found the system much easier to
use than searching individual databases. Very satisfied with the results.
