Our Mission
<< The Hebrew University Library Authority provides the institution researchers, teachers and students with all their needs in accessing sources of information, knowledge and data and equip them with the tools, assistance, environmental and technological conditions necessary for the use of these sources . All this , while adapting to relevant changes in the academic, social, legal and technological environment, and achieving maximum economic efficiency.>>

Why not
• Library Survey 2015, Faculty and Ph.D. students
• What is your starting point when you look for material?
• 36% answered Google or Google Scholar
• It is free• It is user friendly• It includes scientific resources
and even “gray” literature• It allows simultaneous search in
many resources• It allows saving in a private e-
shelf and creating a bibliography• It shows citations and other
parameters• It searches the full text• It links to the catalog of your
local library
![Page 24: Choosing and implementing a discovery tool at Hebrew University Edith Falk, Chief Librarian Hebrew University of Jerusalem LIBER CONFERENCE, 2015](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649ddc5503460f94ad458f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Why not It is difficult to determine with 100%
accuracy all that Google Scholar searches.
• Google cannot:– Sort/search by disciplinary field– Browse by title– Limit search results– Search the deep web
• There are not enough possibilities to deal with the results
• No access to the indexing of thedatabases.• No access to the algorithm
![Page 25: Choosing and implementing a discovery tool at Hebrew University Edith Falk, Chief Librarian Hebrew University of Jerusalem LIBER CONFERENCE, 2015](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649ddc5503460f94ad458f/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

What are we looking for?• A Google-like tool, simple
and efficient• A tool that allows searching
as many resources as possible, while allowing limiting the searches to resources accessible to library patrons
• A tool that allows dealing with the list of searches in as many ways as possible
![Page 27: Choosing and implementing a discovery tool at Hebrew University Edith Falk, Chief Librarian Hebrew University of Jerusalem LIBER CONFERENCE, 2015](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649ddc5503460f94ad458f/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
What do we need?
• A discovery layer for the catalogue
• A discovery tool at article level
![Page 28: Choosing and implementing a discovery tool at Hebrew University Edith Falk, Chief Librarian Hebrew University of Jerusalem LIBER CONFERENCE, 2015](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649ddc5503460f94ad458f/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

What is a discovery tool?
![Page 32: Choosing and implementing a discovery tool at Hebrew University Edith Falk, Chief Librarian Hebrew University of Jerusalem LIBER CONFERENCE, 2015](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649ddc5503460f94ad458f/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The Central Index• The collection of pre-harvested
and processed metadata and full text that comprises the searchable content of a WSD service: Central indexes typically include full text and citations from publishers; full text and metadata from open source collections; full text, abstracting, and indexing from aggregators and subscription databases; and MARC from library catalogs; also called the base index, unified index, or foundation index.
![Page 33: Choosing and implementing a discovery tool at Hebrew University Edith Falk, Chief Librarian Hebrew University of Jerusalem LIBER CONFERENCE, 2015](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081516/56649ddc5503460f94ad458f/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Evaluating the Central Index
• parameters:– scope of the content,– item types,– inclusion of the full text – richness of the
metadata. • The central index has to fit
the library collections on one hand and the type of users of the library on the other hand.
• Some databases are not included in any WSD (for example: Scifinder)
• Some databases are included in some WSD and not in others (especially Proquest and Ebsco)
• Even when a WSD vendor does not include a database, it may have basic, citation-level metadata for journal titles by a certain publisher (Elsevier or Springer).

The Discovery Layer
•Single search across the central index
•Fast response time •Relevancy-ranked results list •Facets, sort, and other tools
for refining and using the results
•Connections to full text via direct links and OpenURL
•End-user accounts and features
