Information retrieval functions in digital libraries

Abstract

Information retrieval functions in digital libraries have a different context from those which apply to searching commercial databases or OPACs. Different methods of browsing in this context are described, but the retrieval function should also include ordinary Boolean searching. Conversion of printed materials to electronic format using OCR can result in errors, which may cause problems for keyword searching. The n-gram method of approximate or fuzzy matching to reduce this problem is described
