Putting the "M" in Mango: Access to Articles in the SULs' Next-Gen Discovery Tool

Abstract

Joshua Greben, Systems Librarian/Analyst, Florida Center for Library Automation.

Article searching is one of the newest features being developed in Mango (the State University Libraries of Florida’s next-gen catalog and discovery tool). Article searching in Mango uses each of the SUL's MetaLib categories along with the Mango-generated facet values to dynamically select and search databases based on the researcher's original query in Mango. By selecting an option to display "articles and other references" on the initial search, the researcher will see a list of databases relevant to the query and receive federated search results that include full-text articles and A&I data—all integrated within a single interface: Mango.
