Introduction Our primary interest is improving the searchability of the 721 pdf documents saved on our site, whose contents and metadata are also stored inside a MySQL database. On a different site that archives the same documents, [login to view URL]~ota, users can only see lists of pdf versions of the reports alphabetically by title, alphabetically by predetermined keyword, and by year of publication. We want to expand this capability so that users can not only see lists of the reports, but also can search the text of the reports, report number, etc to retrieve reports of interest. ## Deliverables A) Look and feel of interface - The search engine interface will be on the left column sidebar of our site http://otaarchive.org. We are using Wordpress to run our site, using the theme K2, release candidate 4. The search form will be integrated into our Wordpress theme. The search interface will need to integrate into the left sidebar, as well as having dedicated pages for a search form and search results. The core WordPress files should not be touched, and the interface added using a custom plugin. B) For the search form - WordPress Plugins and/or page templates that will use the existing, populated database to return matching results based on a user-initiated query. There is no data import involved, only the development of a front-end search form, formatted search results page, and the SQL queries to return any matching results. C) Search Interface: The left sidebar should contain a single text field that will be used for a full-text search of the Summary, TOC, and other fields in the MySQL database. Matching results will be displayed on a Search Results page in the center column. The Search Results should show the name of the report, year of publication, index number, topic, contextual match, the relevance score (if provided), and a link to download the PDF. The search results will appear in the center column. Below the left sidebar text field will be a link for ‘Advanced Search’ which will display, when clicked, a new form on a new page (see below for a description of the look and feel of the advanced search). Below the advanced search link will be several other links where users can access lists of all reports. (this functionality will be very similar to what is already available on the Princeton site- for example go to <[login to view URL]~ota/ns20/[login to view URL]> and click on the links for ‘reports by title’, ‘reports by year’, and ‘reports by topic’) There will be three links- year, subject, and alphabetical. When the user clicks the link, a dropdown menu will appear on the sidebar that lists all years, all topics, or all letters of the alphabet, respectively (see below for examples of the dropdown feature). When clicked, all the relevant links from that year, topic, etc, will appear as a list in the center column (I will make the lists and do the linking- the coder doesn’t have to do this. For an example of what this will look like see <[login to view URL]>). Advanced search The advanced search should be easy to use and should require the user to input as little information from scratch as possible. The advanced search form will have a single text field, but will also contain additional choices (year, topic) that the user can select to limit their choices. In both cases the ‘additional choices’ part of the form should contain prepopulated information- in other words, for year we want to be able to select a single year or a range, and for topic we want to be able to select one or several topics (see section F for a list of all topics). Matching results will again be displayed on a Search Results page in the center column. Examples of the dropdown feature: For the left sidebar navigation (year, subject, and alphabetical links with dropdown), here are two examples that are pretty close to what we’re looking for… [login to view URL] Look at the ‘About’, ‘S&T newsletter’, and ‘S&T bill trackers’ links on the left sidebar. [login to view URL] - Check the ‘fellows directory’ link on the left sidebar. D) Info about the database - Each report (additionally available as .PDF) is indexed in a mysql database with the following information: year of release, title of report, 1-3 index numbers (NTIS, OTA, and GPO), table of contents, and a summary. E) What the form will search 1) keyword/title/phrase 2) year of release 3) index number F) Topic categories as defined by the Princeton OTA group. They are as follows: addiction, aging, agricultural technology, AIDS/HIV infection, air pollution, alcoholism and alcohol abuse, alternative fuels, Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias, arms control, automobiles and automobile industry, aviation, banks and banking, biological diversity, biological research and technology, biological weapons, biomaterials, biotechnology, business and industry, cancer, chemical weapons, children’s health, climate change, communications, competitiveness, computer security, computer technology, crime and criminal justice, defense technology, developing countries, disabilities, drugs, economic development, economy, education, electric power, employment and training, energy efficiency, energy technology, environmental health, environmental protection, genetic research, hazardous waste, health and health technology, information technology, insect and pest management technology, international relations and technology transfer, labor, law and law enforcement, manufacturing, materials, Medicaid and Medicare, medical malpractice, mental health, metals industry, natural disasters, nuclear energy, nuclear war and nuclear weapons, oceans and oceanography, oil gas and mineral resources, oil spills, osteoporosis, OTA annual reports, patents, pharmaceuticals, pollution, remote sensing, research and development, science and technology, solar power, space, substance abuse and addiction, superconductors, superfund, telecommunications, terrorism, training, transportation, waste management, women’s health, workplace safety and health ## Platform any
