SUNCAT - Serials Union CATalogue for the UK research community

Following on from my message a couple of weeks ago about the preview of the new 
look SUNCAT at http://test.suncat.ac.uk , we have now put up a survey to gather 
your feedback about the new service at
https://www.survey.ed.ac.uk/redeveloped_suncat

Both the survey and the preview of the service will be available until Monday 
13th May 2013.

We would be really grateful for your time and input into the development of 
SUNCAT and would also encourage you to circulate the preview and survey details 
as widely as possible.  Any comments you make will all feed into the ongoing 
development process.

You can also continue to email any comments to [log in to unmask] and a big thank 
you to everyone who has contacted us so far.

Best wishes

We are delighted to announce that the new look SUNCAT is available to
preview at http://test.suncat.ac.uk

The current service (http://www.suncat.ac.uk ) will continue as the primary
service for the moment, but we would encourage you to take a look,
experiment and let us have your feedback about the new service as soon as
you get a chance.

The new service is still in development, so there are still issues to be
resolved with keeping it up-to-date, searching and relevancy ranking, but to
give you a flavour, the new service:

   - Integrates information from the website and the actual service more
closely, with the search box, a map of our Contributing    Libraries and a
feed of our latest news all on the homepage
   - Enables searching limited to a specific library or selection of
libraries: you will only see the serials' holdings of libraries you have
specified in your search
    -Enables searching limited to a specific location or selection of
locations, all the way from Inverness to Exeter: again you will only see the
serials' holdings in locations you have specified in your search.
   - Plus you can combine library and location limits to suit your individual
search requirements
   - Enables searching limited to electronic or print serials only: helpful
if you only want to see what might be immediately available online or
conversely if you want to see only material likely to be available via
Inter-Library Loan.
   - Enables filtering of search results by library, location, subject,
organisation, publisher, date etc.
   - Enables more sophisticated searching via the Advanced Search option
   - Allows you to choose how many records you want to display on your search
results screen
   - Provides an alphabetical list of all the libraries holding a particular
serial title
   - Allows you to quickly see if holdings are print or electronic
   - Opens up further information about each library, including directions,
contact details, British Library code and when it was last updated in SUNCAT

Please email [log in to unmask] to let us know what you think or if you have any
questions or suggestions. Alternatively, if you are currently at UKSG,
please pop along to EDINA stand 26, where we will be happy to give you a
demo in person.
