RE: RELSEARCH - Related Search

["Miller, David" <dmiller at post03 dot curry dot edu>]

Hello, everyone --

I've been glad to see examples of Related searches, because I hope we'll be
able to implement this in the next budget cycle.

Regarding the same scope note coming up under different headings, yes, this
is definitely a glitch which very much needs to be fixed. Perhaps someone
from III can address this offlist (I know they don't like to comment on the
list)?

Best wishes,

David

Moira - Colgate just got reindexed for Related searches, and we haven't
opened this up to the public yet because of a problem I suspect is shown
in this example from Union:

Could someone at Union look at the authority record that generates the
links "Biomolecules" and "Biological response modifiers"?  These two
show the same scope note (680?).  I wonder if the scope note should be
listed under these?  I'm not sure about the Union example, but take a
look at this:

It appears to me that the scope note from the 680 is shown under the 550
and 551 from "African American soldiers" - shouldn't it just be under
the 150, "African American soldiers"? Of course, the 550 and 551's are
1xx's in their own right, which may be how the confusion arises?

Jim,

Related Searches seem to work pretty well for us, although we haven't 
actively promoted them.  You might also check out Union College:
