- Documenting the Conversation: A Systematic Review of Library Discovery Layers Bossaller, Jenny S. Sandy, Heather Moulaison Electronic Libraries Computer Interfaces Computer System Design Online Searching Search Strategies Literature Reviews Meta Analysis Library Research Library Automation Users (Information) Periodicals Publishing Industry Research Methodology Evidence This article describes the results of a systematic review of peer-reviewed, published research articles about "discovery layers," user-friendly interfaces or systems that provide single-search box access to library content. Focusing on articles in LISTA published 2009-2013, a set of 80 articles was coded for community of users, journal type, research method, and results. The findings suggest sustained and potentially a converging professional interest in discovery layers over time. They also demonstrate what has not been studied, finding very little research about how discovery layers affect public libraries or children.
