This technology provides equal access to materials for all users, from professional researchers to recreational learners. Putting resources online allows users to access the library's digital media resources from anywhere at any time, via the Internet. In addition to browsing online collections, Hyperion offers powerful attribute-based and natural language content searching. Attribute searching helps users locate documents based on the information about each of the documents, such as the title, description, or author. Content searching finds documents based on the textual information within the document itself.
Users can search using any word in a document's text.
Users simply key in their searches in plain English. Hyperion then uses natural language text processing, which is based not on single words, but instead on concepts, to provide results in ranked order for evaluation by the user. From here, the user may select from the results for viewing or augment the search strategy with additional terms or concepts. Best of all, there is no indexing or cataloging required by your staff, since the full-text of each document is indexed automatically by Hyperion. Hyperion is the ideal system for managing and preserving a variety of archival information for all types of libraries in a wide array of formats.
