Search Relevancy

In this section, Erik talks about how BiblioCommons improves search relevancy in the discovery layer.

Misspellings & Auto-Suggest

Erik describes what the BiblioCommons catalog will do when a patron spells a search term wrong or isn't sure how to spell their search.

James Patterson Search Example - Relevancy Ranking

Erik compares a James Patterson search in 3 different discovery layers and explains how BiblioCommons' exceptional relevancy ranking facilitates better results.

While You Wait

One of the most frustrating things for library patrons is when they must wait for the most in-demand items. BiblioCommons mitigates that frustration with the While You Wait feature.

Smart Search

The BiblioCommons discovery layer is the only library catalog with a natural language search. Erik explains how Smart Search allows patrons to get relevant results for searches like "new movies," "kids' books," and "books in Spanish."

Mobile-Friendly Design

One thing that differentiates the BiblioCommons discovery layer is its superior performance on mobile devices.

Pin Filters

Erik shows how to keep filters applied across multiple searches by "pinning" them.
