Digging deep in Trove: Success, challenge and uncertainty


4 September 2012 - 12:00
Trove, Australia’s national discovery service, provides access to more than 300 million resources managed by more than 1000 Australian and international organisations, and by members of the public. Trove has been enthusiastically embraced by Australians from all walks of life, and from around the country. More than 50,000 unique visitors search the service every day, and tens of thousands of Australians engage much more actively than by just searching. Trove users correct newspaper text, add content, tags and annotations, and create online lists of Trove resources – all within the Trove community space. Trove has extended the reach of the National Library and Trove contributors far beyond our expectations. But while it is gratifying to bask in public and political acclamation, we must also ask – why is Trove a success? Is Trove as a whole a success, or just some parts of it? And what challenges do the answers to that question pose to libraries’ ....

Changes to services for Music publishers


Changes to services for Music publishers
The National Library of Australia as the Australian ISMN Agency is making some exciting changes to our services.
The Library currently provides Australian music publishers with a range of services to help your publishing workflow. Including suppling ISMN’s and the Cataloguing in Publication (CiP) service. Through CiP, the Library creates a catalogue record for a publication before it is published. This service is for Australian publishers who want details of their upcoming publications made available to over 1,000 Australian libraries and library suppliers for acquisition purposes.
What’s changing?
The Library is modernising the CiP service. Book publishers have already begun using the Library’s replacement service, known as the Prepublication Data Service (PDS), and music publishers will now be given the same opportunity. The new Music PDS will launch on 11 December 2019. ....

Relevance ranking of results from MARC-based catalogues: from guidelines to implementation exploiting structured metadata


1 February 2010 - 12:00
The development of new search technologies, and new search behaviours, has opened up new opportunities for libraries to expose their holdings. Our users are more used to searching large aggregations of items, and to being able to obtain rare and unusual items relatively easily. Library holdings, if exposed through centrally searchable union catalogues like Libraries Australia, could see a significant increase in usage in the new long tail environment. To take advantage of these opportunities, however, libraries need to provide tools to make resource discovery easier across large stores of records - including relevance ranking and clustering of search results. During 2006, the National Library has taken steps forward in harnessing these technologies for Libraries Australia. An explanation of the development of a set of rules for the relevance ranking of bibliographic records is given, and the work done to advance clustering of relevance ranking and oth ....
