New version of FictionFinder
Lorcan Dempsey posted last week about the updated version of OCLC’s interesting FictionFinder. As he puts it, it “offers a ‘frbresque’ view of the data, clustering records under works; it aggregates data from multiple records to create a fuller ‘work’ level record; it richly indexes the data allowing searches on fictitious characters, settings, language, and so on, alongside the usual attributes like author and title; it ranks results by OCLC holdings (the number of libraries we know about which hold the item).” I searched for “three musketeers” and at the top of the results was Trois mousquetaires, which has 860 different editions (or manifestations). The new design is nice and displays a lot of information clearly.
