Zusammenfassung:Die HeBIS-Verbundzentrale bietet das HeBIS Discovery System (HDS) als Dienstleistung für interessierte Mitgliedsbibliotheken an. Der Service beinhaltet eine Rechercheoberfläche mit Suchunterstützung durch eine moderne Suchmaschine, Erweiterung des Suchraums mit Inhalten aus Datenbanken und Volltexten durch einen Resource Discovery Service und alle gewohnten Funktionen eines lokalen OPACs. Technisch besteht HDS aus dem Open-Source-OPAC VuFind, der Suchmaschine Solr, dem Discovery-Service EDS und dem ReDi-Linkresolver. Dieser Beitrag geht auf die Projektstruktur und die Erfahrungen bei der kooperativen Entwicklung ein.

Purpose This paper aims to provide an overview of the emergence of resource discovery systems and services along with their advantages and best practices including current landscapes. It reports the development of a resource discovery system by using the “VuFind” software and describes other technological tools, software, standards and protocols required for the development of the prototype. Design/methodology/approach This paper describes the process of integrating VuFind (resource discovery tool) with Koha (integrated library system), DSpace (repository software) and Apache Tika (as full-text extractor for full-text searching), etc. Findings The proposed model performs like other existing commercial and open source Web-scale resource discovery systems and is capable of harvesting resources from different subscribed or external sources replacing a library’s OPAC. Originality/value This discovery system is an important add-on to designing a one-stop access in place of the existing retrieval silos in libraries. This system is capable of indexing a variety of content within and beyond library collections. This work may help library professionals and administrators in designing their discovery system, as well as vendors to improve their products, to provide different library-friendly services.

This paper shows  the evolution of the web-scale resource discovery services in libraries along with different discovery software available both in commercial and open source domain. The paper discusses several discovery tools and identifies several key parameters on the  basis of which can compare the usability and accessibility of different discovery software. It will be identifies tools possibilities of applications of these interactive, collaborative and participative tools in enhancing existing library services and the feasibility of introducing next generation library services. Therefore, today all world look-over the newly made association which is library discovery system. Library discovery system make a software like 'VuFind' as open source software,  digital library software to distributed across the globe.

According to the investigation of library resources discovery system construction in 20 universities in China, the aggregation discovery service provided by the multi-source aggregation function, the discovery function is based on aggregation and the comprehensive revealing function. This article evaluates user usage and acceptance based on refinements of the functions mentioned above. The investigation shows that compared with the diversity of function, users are more concerned about the practicability, the intuition and the academy. Thus, systems should choose the best sources and pay attention to the metadata normalization, and enhance the correlation to standard datasets.

In diesem Artikel geht es um die bisherigen Tests der AK Bibliothek Wien mit dem Discovery System VuFind. Es handelt sich um eine mögliche Open Source Alternative zu Primo, einer weit verbreiteten proprietären Suchlösung an österreichischen Bibliotheken. Nach einem kurzen technischen Überblick wird beschrieben, welche Entwicklungen und Anpassungen vorgenommen werden mussten, um eine Kompatibilität zwischen VuFind und den in der AK Bibliothek Wien vorherrschenden Bedingungen zu schaffen. Dabei wird näher auf die Verarbeitung des Datenformates MAB2 sowie die Schnittstellen zum Bibliothekssystem Aleph und dem Bibliotheks-Repository eingegangen. Die ersten Ergebnisse werden präsentiert und noch zu lösende Probleme angesprochen. Zudem wird ein Ausblick auf zukünftige Vorhaben gegeben.

This chapter contributes to the topic of electronic resources. The purpose of this chapter is to share with fellow professionals the experience and challenges that the Library and Learning Commons, Monash University Sunway Campus Malaysia faced in progressing electronic resources at the Sunway campus. It discusses two major actions undertaken, namely (1) the implementation of an e-book acquisitions policy and (2) the implementation of Search, a Web resource discovery service undertaken in collaboration with Monash University Library Australia. The intent of the chapter is to share the experience of the Information Resources Section that undertook to implement these actions as part of the Section’s annual development plan for 2011 and 2012. The ensuing initiatives to realize the action plans and the progress made are discussed here. More importantly, the outcomes and the learning experiences are shared, in the understanding that by sharing, they contribute to enriching the field and empowering and challenging ourselves to progress further.
