What does the Display GLIMIR clustering check box do?

Applies to
  • Connexion client 2.63 only
Answer

This box allows users to view WorldCat search results in the same GLIMIR cluster.  GLIMIR is the acronym for Global Library Manifestation Identifier.  Items in a GLIMIR cluster may represent manifestations of a work in different languages of cataloging or in different physical formats, such as original print text and microform versions or ebooks with print versions that are not new editions. 

Please note checking this box may disrupt search results when searching for a single record.  Most users find leaving this box unchecked provides better search results when not specifically looking for items in GLIMIR clusters.
