DEFINITIONS
Prototype
A virtually seamless access to information and relevant
retrieval of information from the user's point of view.
Seamless
Multiple sources of information can be searched,
resulting in a single list of search results. A prototype
system may provide the user with access to multiple
authority control lists, whether thesauri or LCSH or
whatever, in order to assist in vocabulary usage
and search definition, BEFORE the search is enabled.
