Body

Work is moving forward on the MnLINK Gateway’s replacement with WorldCat Discovery for end user searching and requesting. WorldCat Discovery allows for more relevant search results for users. Search results will aggregate versions of the same title and content type, making it easier for the end user to request a title.  However, they'll still have the option to request a specific version and edition if they choose to. Users will also be able to check the availability of items at individual libraries. A geolocating feature will sort results based on the assigned location of the library as it relates to the physical location of the search.
