EBSCO Publishing (EBSCO) has advanced its multilingual support by introducing two new German-Language search enhancements — an improved umlaut search and increased support for variants.

Benzinga brought this topic to our attention in their article, “EBSCO Publishing Enhances German-Language Search.” German-language users will find these new features will increase their access to library’s online full text and print holdings.

Comprehensive search is important for any document management system. Findability only works when a proper taxonomy is in place. Proper indexing against a strong standards-based taxonomy increases the findability of data. Access Innovations is one of a very small number of companies able to help its clients generate ANSI/ISO/W3C-compliant taxonomies.
