Not state of the art anymore, but we still use a cover-based browse at NCSU: http://catalog.lib.ncsu.edu/record/NCSU1855526 http://catalog.lib.ncsu.edu/browse?callNumber=SD418.3+.A53+C26+2005&format=covers We have work underway to add a horizontal cover-based widget to the full record to allow browsing directly there a la Amazon recommendations. We are actually planning to offer both call number browse and a subject-based browse. -emily -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Mon, 26 Jan 2015 14:23:11 -0700 From: "[log in to unmask]" <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Re: state of the art in virtual shelf browse?
