Description:

How would you evaluate search results if you didn’t know which discovery tool produced them? Librarians in this study did just that. Find out what happens to perceptions of relevancy when you strip away the interface and other identifying features. Learn how this methodology could help you compare multiple discovery tools or different potential customizations of the same tool. It’s a jungle out there! Stop guessing and start letting your data do the heavy-lifting.
