New Spell Checker Feature for
WilsonWeb
Much More than a Dictionary, Spell Checker Draws Its
Terms from Subject Coverage
New York, New York, July 24, 2006
Automatically activated when there are zero results for a
search, WilsonWeb's new Spell Checker feature suggests
alternate spellings for proper names, corporate names, and any other
words that produce no hits. More than a simple dictionary, Spell
Checker draws its terms from all the terms in the records of the
database being searched, for much more relevant coverage.
Even the latest names in the news, and far-flung
people, places, corporations, slang, and jargon are referenced.
Clicking on the suggestion launches an automatic search.
Spell Checker makes for a more
user-friendly search experience, ensuring the best results for all
searchers. The new feature is especially helpful for users whose
primary language is not English.
Spell Checker is one of many
new WilsonWeb enhancements recently introduced in response to
customer request. Others include new "Subject Pathfinder" links at
the top of results screens that allow users to search subtopics of
their original search, or search broader topics at a click. The
redesigned Search History screen now features a "Search Builder"
tool that lets users combine past searches, refine searches, or
create new ones. The layout of other WilsonWeb screens has also been
refined, with more prominent buttons and links that make WilsonWeb
tools more accessible.
