Infotrieve unveils new search solutionPosted 12/08/2004
Information management software developer Infotrieve Inc has launched a new federated search solution, ArticleFinder eXtreme (AFX).
The new search software is designed to deliver cost savings to special libraries by shortening discovery cycles through the leverage of existing resources.
AFX can be integrated into Infotrieve's Virtual Library technology platform, enabling users to simultaneously search library holdings, subscription and public databases.
ArticleFinder eXtreme features in-holdings checks to reduce duplicate orders, merging and sorting of results, automated user authentication for multiple databases, saved search queries as alerts, and usage reporting.
The system allows for one-click LinkOut access to full-text articles in electronic collections, the exporting of citations directly into bibliographic citation managers and integrated ordering for documents not located in a library's collections.
"The AFX federated search solution is ideal for organisations that utilise a large number of information databases, particularly those wanting to maximise the value of subscription-based databases," said Edward W Pastorius, chief operating officer at Infotrieve. "
