Improving Search Functionality & Quality of Results: Faceting & Sorting #323

Open rmjaffe opened 4 years ago

rmjaffe commented 4 years ago

Descriptive Summary

This epic focuses on improving our search functionality (faceting, sorting, search options, etc.) and user experience around search and discovery. As part of this work, we will want to begin looking more closely at and make informed decisions about how we indexing our structured metadata in Solr. We will do this with the understanding that decisions made about how and what metadata is indexed will impact user experience.

Background

This epic is in some sense a continuation of the User Interface Redesign UCSCLibrary/dams_project_mgmt#311 epic. Cards pertaining to search/discovery functionality that had been originally included in that epic have been peeled out and re-scoped as a new, separate epic.

Acceptance Criteria

This is what done looks like:

Related Work

This work can be done in parallel with work on the Configuration File Overhaul UCSCLibrary/dams_project_mgmt#77 and User Experience: Enhanced Support for Complex Objects UCSCLibrary/dams_project_mgmt#466. This work is preceded by User Interface Redesign UCSCLibrary/dams_project_mgmt#311. As we begin to discuss Solr/indexing, we will likely need to create cards or an epic specific to that work.
