Abstract
This paper proposes an addition to the Library’s search and discovery services. In order to recreate one of the qualities of collection browsing that is lost by relocating the physical collection off-site, the Library should provide a recommendation service that can provide the kind of serendipitous search results that patrons have identified as critical-to-quality in their browsing. The paper details the proposed recommendation service and presents a SWOT analysis of creating the service.
