Hello,

I haven't seen anyone post a link to the new OPAC at NCSU and=20
thought it might be of interest to everyone as it is a rich example=20
of the use of facets.=20

To get an idea on how well received it is....one student recently=20
commented that "The new system is incredible. It would be difficult=20
to exaggerate how much better it is than our old online card catalog=20
(and therefore that of most other universities). I've found myself=20
searching the catalog just for fun, whereas before it was a chore to=20
find what I needed."

Link to the new OPAC search:

view=3Dfull&Ntt=3Dranganathan&Ntk=3DKeyword&N=3D206305&Nty=3D1

Guide to the faceted interface:

Press release:
http://www.lib.ncsu.edu/news/libraries.php?p=3D1998&more=3D1

A few of the blog entries:
http://www.lib.ncsu.edu/endeca/press.html

If I can be of any help sharing our experiences helping NCSU let me=20
know.=20

Full disclaimer: I am the founder of Endeca. I wanted to share this=20
site as the entire Endeca team is very pleaseed to play a small role=20
in inspiring the NCSU students to spend more time appreciating the=20
great treasures in the library.

Best,
Steve Papa
