Is a Single Search Box Enough for Your Users?

Last month in an Information Today, Inc. webinar, sponsored by ProQuest, discussion focused on how the discovery ecosystem involves much more than the single search box and the content that libraries make available to their users.

Attention focused on the increasing role that librarians can play by embedding themselves within the researcher workflow, along with contextual guidance and new tools to help researchers at the point of need.

Both presenters, Amy Fry (Electronic Resources Librarian, Bowling Green State University) and Eddie Neuwirth (Senior Product Manager, ProQuest), highlighted how both the library and the vendor can elevate the research experience to a new level.

Focused on user experience and enablement, both Amy and Eddie highlighted a user experience focused on improving research productivity with discovery, linking, and research management tools. This increases opportunities for researcher collaboration, and provides new opportunities for libraries and librarians to meet users’ needs and gain credit for the valuable services they provide.
