Abstract

A study of new information systems and databases shows that insufficient help is provided to enable users to exploit these resources adequately. Despite surveys which show that users rarely employ Boolean logic appropriately in formulating search strategies database producers continue to use it as an indexing tool. Moreover, although much effort has been devoted to developing navigation techniques to search databases, problems still arise with insufficient entry points and links between systems. Resources are currently being channelled into the development of virtual reality systems to help users

Abstract

To assist users of the national SURFnet information network in the Netherlands Utrecht City Libraries have developed the Kermit user help package. The Gopher package developed by the University of Minnesota in the United States also enables users to navigate through the system. The Open Bibliotheek Network (Open Library Network) allows users both to access and request items from other library collections via SURFnet. The system thus enables enquirers to male optimum use of library resources in the Netherlands

Abstract

In 1989 Brabant Catholic University was the first university in the Netherlands to provide an online campus information service. Since that date other universities in the Netherlands have inaugurated systems providing a wide range of information services, including access to the respective library's catalogues. Ease of use varies from system to system and there is an urgent need to standardize system commands. Libraries can provide useful help in creating such services. In return ther services provide a useful adjunct to the organization's library

Abstract

A review of EndNote Plus which enables users to create and export lists of references for use in wordprocessing packages. The system has been available for some time, but a new version (2.3) has improved the links between database and wordprocessing packages. Creation of reference lists is a simple task and searching is rapid, although indexing is rather slow. Documentation and online help screens are more that adequate and an active discussion group is maintained by the supplier. It is particular suitable in conjunction with Windows

Abstract

In the Netherlands updated versions of the Vindex and Zoek search engines have been released. Vindex indexes sites originating in the Netherlands and us currently undergoing a 6-month trial period. In both search engines help for users is unclear whilst truncation practice in Zoek is unhelpful. However, Zoek offers a range of options including ranking of topics. Display of search results is excellent

Abstract

The Nationale Raad voor de Volksgezondheid contains a medium sized library with 800-1.000 new acquisitions each year and 220 periodical subscriptions. A study of commercially available automated catalogue systems showed that none met the needs of library users. After an unsuccessful attempt to develop a catalogue using Word Perfect word processing package a program was written using Turbo Pascal software to provide a user friendly catalogue with adequate help screens and Dutch language commands. The system uses little disc space and offers a 10 second response time. At present the catalogue contains books and periodical articles added in 1991-92. Plans are in hand to add material back to Jan 1990

Abstract

A recent survey at the Royal Library in the Netherlands showed that subject headings are more efficient than title keywords for retrieval purposes. 475 Dutch publications were selected at random and assigned subject headings. The study showed that subject headings provided additional useful information in 56% of titles. Subsequent searching of the library's online catalogue showed that 88% of titles were retrieved via subject headings against 57% through title keywords. Further precision may be achieved with the help of indexing staff, but at considerable cost
