UI Search Enhancements

Notes from the MM-SIG meeting 11/3/2022

Simple search:

Search options:

Filter options:


Simple searchRequirementCommentJira
Filter on Location (with more)Filter on also e.g. Library and Campus - on all 4 levelsInstitutions - might be relevant for some libraries
Being able to search and filter on data with empty data Would be nice to have a null option for this kind of data Also relevant in Advanced search
Cross record search

Usecases:

  1. Have the exact title. And want to define: Start with ...
  2. Have the exact title and the combine with the material type


Key word makes sense to have the current behavior

And all other searches should do the search as a phrase



Browse by titles

What data property are we using here: Resource type?

Search title (all) is a cross property search.

Would be nice if browse could be combined with filters
LCCN - as a specific search option

Will need normalization. 

LC use prefixes.

Advanced searchRequirementCommentJira

Search on multiple fields without performing a query search

CW: See the complete query in the search box - similar to implementation in MARC Authority

We want to be able to search on multiple fields, e.g. by

  • title and publisher
  • contributor and title (without series title which is included in keyword search)
  • title and publication date

Highlight requirements:
Requirements still valid?RequirementCommentJira

Search result of given holdings or item will be clearly identifiable with highlight.

Implemented for search on barcode, but not implemented in a general way

Inventory. When searching by keyword, search options and/or filter, then highlight found holdings or item record, in top of the instance record
