Abstract

For some time, large academic libraries have been offering discovery systems in order to allow access not only to their library holdings but also to their licensed electronic materials. Most of these libraries integrate huge commercial indices into their discovery systems. But it is only now that special libraries are starting to discuss whether those indices meet their demands, too.
As a part of a cooperative project, the library of the University of Music and Drama in Leipzig, Germany, installed the open source system VuFind (see http://​www.​vufind.​org). It was accompanied by discussions about how to develop a discovery system that is transparent and suitable to the users’ needs.
The following paper will show the reflections on that matter that finally led to the new MT-Katalog, which offers higher comfort of use and broader scope of search than our previous catalogue. We will take into account which additional musical and music-related e-resources can be found, selected and integrated. The paper will also provide ideas for improved use and enhancement of metadata.

MAB (Maschinelles Austauschformat für Bibliotheken) has long been the standard metadata format used by German libraries. In 2006 the German national library stopped any further development of MAB. It slowly gets replaced by MARC 21. See http://​www.​dnb.​de/​EN/​Standardisierung​/​Formate/​MAB/​mab_​node.​html.
