The electronic resources search using open access contents: The OPAC and multi-search provided by Jissen Women's University Library

Abstract

To users, Jissen Women's University Library choses OPAC as an effective method to supply information of electronic resource collection or teacher-reserved-books. The targeted electronic information for search of OPAC is extended not only fee contents (e.g. ejournals, ebooks ...) but also free contents (e.g. free ebooks, open access publications) offered by Aozora-Bunko, Project Gutenberg, and Japanese Government, etc. Meanwhile we made a full list of open access ejournals in Japanese which are not yet grasped, and made search possible. This paper describes the outline, some features, the functions and future issues of our OPAC and multi-search.
