A dynamic bibliography produces
a real-time search result from the NAL database,
AGRICOLA, based on current librarian-built queries.
The term "dynamic" refers to the fact that
a new bibliography is generated each time
a search is run, so the bibliography's citations
are always up-to-date. However, because of
the automated nature of dynamic bibliographies,
they have certain benefits and limitations:
Improved timeliness. The print bibliography is by its
nature limited to items published before its
date of publication. However, the
dynamic bibliography will always contain the
most current information.
Wider subject coverage. Citations might include related
topics in addition to the specific topic covered.
Limited database coverage. Searches are run against
the AGRICOLA database only. AGRICOLA may not
contain records (results) for every publication in the subject area.
Decreased depth. To improve precision, some relevant results may not be listed.
Irrelevant material. Irrelevant
citations might be included while some relevant
citations might be omitted.
