The following new features and bug fixes have been rolled out in January:

• We have greatly improved relevancy ranking for known phrase searches like Journal titles.  A typical example of this is a search for the Journal title ‘Nature’ which has long been a source of frustration in Orbis because so many titles in the Library catalog contain that word.  A search for ‘Nature’ in Quicksearch now brings the Online version of the Journal up as the first hit in the Catalogs result list!  Give it a try: http://search.library.yale.edu/quicksearch?q=nature&commit=.

• Another great new feature: you can now access Full Text materials like the online version of ‘Nature” directly from the Quicksearch results list.

•  Quicksearch Response time has also been greatly improved! Thanks again to everyone who reported and/or pitched in to help out with this issue.

•  All fields that display in Orbis now display in Quicksearch

• Several small layout and style issues have been addressed
