RMFC Facets (Guest)

@Nerissa Lindsey

Proposal for testing genre, audience, and accessibility facets that she would like to show the group and get ideas/feedback.

  • Research project - add two new facets for genre (655) and audience (385 [Juvenile], 521)

  • Would require re-normalization if done locally. Would need to be done centrally to the NZ.

  • Want to do it as a pilot. Turn on over summer and look at the analytics.

  • It seems possible to turn this on centrally as each campus would need to toggle on the facet in their production view

  • Genre can be configured by source

  • This committee saw no reason why these couldn’t be set up immediately for testing
