Analytical usability evaluation for digital libraries
2004
Proceedings of the 2004 joint ACM/IEEE conference on Digital libraries - JCDL '04
One key challenge is to understand users' difficulties in working with information and particularly with digital libraries (DLs), and to equip developers with ways of thinking about users and their needs ...
On the other side, there is no unique view of the development process for digital libraries. Bates [4] discusses the complexities of DL development in terms of a "cascade" of interactions. ...
In this case, details such as how users formulate queries and react to search results become important. ...

Contextualizing the information space in federated digital libraries
1999
SIGMOD record
Suitable abstraction mechanisms are required to construct meaningful and scalable document clusters, forming a cross-digital library information space for browsing and semantic searching. ...
Rapid growth in the volume of documents, their diversity, and terminological variations render federated digital libraries increasingly di cult to manage. ...
Querying that structure of document data can subsequently be accomplished using query languages for the Web in the database style 2 . ...
