A previous study on a moderate-sized web site indicated that users understood and preferred dynamically organized faceted metadata over standard search. We are now examining how to scale this approach to very large collections, since it is difficult to present hierarchical faceted metadata in a manner appealing and understandable to general users. We have iteratively designed and tested interfaces that address these design challenges; the most recent version is receiving enthusiastic responses in ongoing usability studies.}, language = {en}, urldate = {2018-07-06}, booktitle = {{CHI} '02 {Extended} {Abstracts} on {Human} {Factors} in {Computing} {Systems}}, publisher = {ACM}, author = {English, Jennifer and Hearst, Marti and Sinha, Rashmi and Swearingen, Kirsten and Yee, Ka-Ping}, year = {2002}, pages = {628--639}, }
