Abstract

Discusses the approach taken in Phase 1 of a three-phase project Folktales, Facets and FRBR [funded by a grant from OCLC/ALISE]. This project works with the special collection of folktales at the Center for Childrens Books (CCB) at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and the scholars who use this collection. Describes the information tasks, information seeking obstacles, and desired features for a discovery and access tool related to folktales for this initial group of scholarly users of folktales. Presentation will focus on how awareness of user tasks and domain facets could help enhance access to folktales.
