Serials Solutions enhances filters for federated search service

mail article to a friend
Serials Solutions has announced the release of enhanced full-text and peer review features for the Serials Solutions 360 Search federated search service. Using a combination of data supplied by the Serials Solutions KnowledgeWorks knowledgebase and the Ulrich's Global Serials Intelligence knowledgebase, these search filters enable users to limit the results of queries to full-text or peer-reviewed sources more reliably than before.

"Most filters rely solely on data supplied by content providers, which causes inaccuracies," said Steve DiStasio, Senior Product Manager at Serials Solutions. "After attempting to make this data work for 360 Search, we've instead enhanced the 360 Search filter with better data for better results."

This new functionality is provided free to all 360 Search subscribers. Libraries not already using the full-text and peer review functionality should contact Serials Solutions for activation. Libraries that already use this feature should see improvements in filtered results.
