Abstract

Web scale discovery tools represent a new information retrieval system that allows for an integrated search through a library's different resources. This paper studies the nature of these tools, created to respond to the fragmentation of query interfaces. Different lines of development and markets for this new product are presented, and a set of criteria for evaluating and selecting these tools is proposed. The rate at which discovery tools are implemented in Spanish university libraries has been investigated as well.
