[Wactclc-alma] [EXT] Blending Configuration - Deboost Central Index!

[Staley, Laura]

I've been working on this at RTC, and have been unable to significantly alter the results we are getting from Primo.

I tested separately with the terms "water purification" and "child development".  I changed the boost factor of the local collection from 10 to 75.  I kept the de-boost factor of the Central index at .8.

Is it possible that the definition of my scopes is interfering in this?  Or?

Thanks,

Laura

Following up on our conversation from this morning's meeting, I discovered that I could blend my results better when I deboosted the Central Index instead of boosting my Local records. My deboost factor is 0.8 - this allows my physical items to float to the first page and start to have CI items on the second page.
