Subject: [NZ-Libs] Archives NZ seeking feedback on search tool

Have your say about Archives’ new search tool.
There’s still time to tell Archives New Zealand what you think about
its new online search tool <http://searchpilot.archives.govt.nz/> .
The search tool aims to help develop our services to researchers. It
has a built-in survey and automatic collection of statistics to help
the department find out what users think of it.
The trial uses data from Archives New Zealand’s online search engine
Archway, and also showcases digitised work from the New Zealand
Defence Force
<http://searchpilot.archives.govt.nz/search?entity=digitiseditem&series=18805>
records, and images from the National Publicity Studios
<http://searchpilot.archives.govt.nz/search?entity=digitiseditem&series=6539>
and War Art
<http://searchpilot.archives.govt.nz/search?entity=digitiseditem&series=898>
collections.
Read more about the trial and how to use it online at
http://www.archives.govt.nz <http://www.archives.govt.nz/> and share
your feedback with the department.
There is also a link on our search engine Archway
www.archway.archives.govt.nz <http://www.archway.archives.govt.nz/> .

I already sent in feedback saying it should be better connected to
ordering the material that you find ... I had to grub around on the
main site to find (many clicks later) where and how to buy some of the
cool stuff that I could find when I searched for my family's name and
for where we live.

I asked for OpenSearch compatibility so that it can easily become a web service
that can have its results pulled into other systems.
