19 <para>You can add or remove organizational unit types, and rename them as needed to match the

21 Evergreen. Evergreen can support organizations as simple as a single library with one or more

22 branches or as complex as a consortium composed of many independently governed library

1739 <title>Adjusting Search Relevancy Rankings</title>
\r
1742 <para>This section describes indexed field weighting and matchpoint weighting, which
\r
1743 control relevance ranking in Evergreen catalog search results. Adjusting relevancy can only be completed through access to the Evergreen database as of version 1.6.</para>
\r
1745 <para>In tuning search relevance, it is good practice to make incremental
\r
1746 adjustments, capture search logs, and assess results before making further
\r
1747 adjustments. </para>
\r
1752 <title>Indexed-field Weighting<indexterm><primary>relevancy</primary><secondary>indexed-field weighting</secondary></indexterm> </title>
\r
1753 <para>Indexed-field weighting is configured in the Evergreen database in the weight column
\r
1754 of the config.metabib_field table, which follows the other four columns in this table:
\r
1755 field_class, name, xpath, and format.</para>
\r
1756 <para>The following is one representative line from the config.metabib_field table:</para>
\r
1757 <para> author | conference | //mods32:mods/mods32:name[@type='conference']/mods32:namePart[../mods32:role/mods32:roleTerm[text()='creator']] | mods32 | 1 ) </para>
\r
1758 <para>The default value for index-field weights in config.metabib_field is 1. Adjust the
\r
1759 weighting of indexed fields to boost or lower the relevance score for matches on that
\r
1760 indexed field. The weight value may be increased or decreased by whole integers. </para>
\r
1761 <para>For example, by increasing the weight of the title-proper field from 1 to 2, a search
\r
1762 for <emphasis role="bold">jaguar</emphasis> would double the relevance for the book titled
\r
1763 <emphasis role="italic">Aimee and Jaguar</emphasis> than for a record with the term
\r
1764 <emphasis role="bold">jaguar</emphasis> in another indexed field. </para>
\r
1767 <title>Match point Weighting<indexterm><primary>relevancy</primary><secondary>match point weighting</secondary></indexterm></title>
\r
1768 <para> Match point weighting provides another way to fine-tune Evergreen relevance ranking,
\r
1769 and is configured through floating-point multipliers in the multiplier column of the
\r
1770 search.relevance_adjustment table.</para>
\r
1771 <para> Weighting can be adjusted for one, more, or all multiplier fields in
\r
1772 search.relevance_adjustment.</para>
\r
1773 <para>You can adjust the following three matchpoints:</para>
\r
1776 <para>first_wordboosts relevance if the query is
\r
1777 one term long and matches the first term in the indexed field (search for <emphasis
\r
1778 role="bold">twain</emphasis>, get a bonus for <emphasis role="bold">twain, mark</emphasis>
\r
1779 but not <emphasis role="bold">mark twain</emphasis>)</para>
\r
1782 <para>word_order increases relevance for words
\r
1783 matching the order of search terms, so that the results for the search <emphasis
\r
1784 role="bold">legend suicide</emphasis> would match higher for the book <emphasis
\r
1785 role="italic">Legend of a Suicide</emphasis> than for the book,
\r
1786 <emphasis role="italic">Suicide Legend</emphasis></para>
\r
1789 <para>full_match boosts relevance when the full
\r
1790 query exactly matches the entire indexed field (after space, case, and diacritics are
\r
1791 normalized). So a title search for <emphasis role="italic">The Future of Ice</emphasis>
\r
1792 would get a relevance boost above <emphasis role="italic">Ice>Ages of the
\r
1793 Future</emphasis>.</para>

1963 config.metabib_field table. The following procedure will add a keyword|title index so that terms found in the title field of an item are given more weight than terms in
