What does this mean for you?
In principle, very little will change: through a single interface start.hr.nl, you can search for books, e-books, journals, databases, theses, and more. Reserving and renewing books will continue to be handled via Rotterdam University WorldCat.
The following new features are now available:
- Natural Language Search: Enable this option to simply type in a question. START will translate your query into a comprehensive search command using the Claude Haiku model.
- Research Starters: For various topics, you will see a 'tile' featuring a description of that subject from an encyclopedia.
- AI Summaries: Available for selected articles.
- Personal Dashboard: A private environment where you can save search results and more.
