6. Browsing



For browsing exercise I chose LibLit database. I open the database and went to Thesaurus. I first tried "open source ils." The search resulted in no hits. Next I tried "open source." This time the results were a number of hits pertaining to open source software in general. The first one shows promise within our context: "LIS community perceptions towards open source software adoption in libraries." The abstract note shows that the article is about open source software in general, not open source ils, or open source software applied to library services, but the more detailed search can be done with other approach.
