Add a Searchable Author Affiliation Index for Summon (Advanced Search)
Most commercial databases offer a searchable author affiliation index. Summon does not in the Advanced Search screen, nor is this information indexed in the Author field contents.
Since they must already have this information in their records, why not create a separate searchable index for Author Affiliation??
For our current awareness, we would like to create RSS feeds for journal articles written by professors from other engineering universities.
Thanks!
This is a great recommendation and will require multiple steps to complete. We are currently working on improving author content within CDI including adding ORCIDs and normalizing author names, both of which would make completion of functionality such as this possible.
