search logic technology never before available to libraries, SirsiDynix Enterprise delivers

Enterprise is an easy add-on to current SirsiDynix OPACs. iBistro, iLink, HIP, and Web2 sites

Friendly, URL-based searching
Supports use of Back button on web browsers as
part of search process and building "saved searches."
Users can copy and paste URL address into a new
browser window and get exact same search results.
Search Widget provides a "code
snippet" that can be easily cut and
pasted in order to present a SirsiDynix
Enterprise search box within existing
web pages.
Finding Aids
Software lists information about
the search results in categories,
such as location, format,
author, subject, publication
date, and language. Users
can easily narrow results using
options that are actually in the
result set.
Takes the guesswork out of
refining search results and
eliminates "dead-ends."
Power and versatility for an exciting new user experience
Cascading style sheet (CSS) templates offer the look
and feel of existing OPACs; features administrative
interface for customized templates.
Multilingual Support
Supporting a range of languages,
including those based on both Roman
and non-Roman character sets. Users
can change the language on-the-fly.
Enriched Content Available
Cover images (books, DVDs, CDs),
reviews, annotations, excerpts, and
more.
Complete Holdings Information
(Call number, library, type, etc.)
Light Integration with Existing Environments
A direct interface to SirsiDynix Symphony, Horizon, and Unicorn, for
high-performance indexing of relevant SirsiDynix MARC data and item
information.
Great tools for efficiently managing state-of-the-art search capabilities
Consortia support. Configuration options for specific library
profiles (branches or different patron groups like kids, teens,
Spanish speaking, for example).
Each profile can support
multiple languages, a unique
look and feel, library or
location-based search limits,
and be reached through a
unique URL configured by
the library.
Facet Stacking. Narrow your search results by a particular author, and then
again by content type, and then again by holding library.
Diacritic Smarts. Enterprise is smart enough to recognize characters with or
without diacritics. This is particularly helpful when a user doesn't have ready
access to an environment where it's easy to type foreign language characters.
Accessibility Compliance. The Enterprise user interface complies with all
Priority 1 and Priority 2 Checkpoints from the W3C's Accessibility Guidelines.
