Some Background• definitely not OPAC 2.0• enhancements to the existing OPAC
– user suggestions from surveys– “2.0” inspired features– borrowing good ideas from other web
sites – new features launched with no/low
publicity– “perpetual beta”

Spell Checker• we monitored keyword searches over
a six month period and discovered approx 23% of searches gave zero results– most OPACs present the user with a
“dead end” page– a good search engine should still give
the user options on a failed search (“did you mean?”)
