Changes

In 2013, Marmot did extensive usability studies with patrons to determine what was difficult in the catalog. Many patrons had problems sifting through all of the various formats and editions of a title. In 2014 we developed a method for [//mercury.marmot.org/Union/Search?lookfor=divergent grouping records] so only a single result work is shown in search results and all formats and editions are listed under that resultwork. This presentation We will cover all discuss our definition of a 'work' based on FRBR principles; combining meta data from MARC records with metadata from other sources like OverDrive; the technical details for how we accomplished of Record Grouping, ; the design decisions in made during implementation, ; and the reaction from usersand staff.
