Display more than 1000 records in a result
This is the most requested improvement from our faculty and graduate students. They find it frustrating that they are not able to view more than 1000 of the results.
Summon does not allow for deep paging into search results for a variety of reasons including:
1. Performance—multiple deep queries at the same time could easily overwhelm the system or allow for a Denial of Service attack.
2. Protecting content—as part of our role as stewards of the Summon Index, we need to ensure the entire contents of the index are not available for bots or other unwanted traffic to extract or mine all metadata from the index.
Using facets the user should be able to reduce the number of results into less than 1000 result chunks.
