Phone-Apps
• Basically the same
• many functions
behind the „more
options“ icon or
button (Android)
• + Barcode-scanner
to start search

Challenges
• We serve users in a specific
discipline but not in a specific library
• We need to find solutions for
presenting availability options
• Refer users back to their home
libraries for licensed material or
printed books (works o.k. for
German libraries since we are able
to include external availability
checkers. But other countries…)

First Usability-Test-Results for the Apps
• iPad much better than phones for
actually doing research
• Bright icons misleading
• Library options confusing,
raise false expectations
[availability always difficult]
• More space for search-words
• Different „folders“ for saving
results/favourites would be good

App versus Mobile Website
Apps:
• Offer faster access
• Make better use of the small
displays / User experience
design
• Easy to save data and PDFs
on device
• Use offline
• Geolocation services
Website:
• Easier to realize one login
and list of favourites
• One version – not different
versions for different devices
• Faster, easier, cheaper to
realize

Conclusion
• EconBiz is available in different shapes and sizes
• Rapid changes in technology make it difficult to plan a couple of
years ahead
• The API gives us flexibility for quick developments and for different
future usage options. It helps us to bring our content to the platforms
that the users prefer - independent of their shape and size.
