About TACOS
TACOS is an anonymous searchterm analysis system.
TACOS aims to be a combination of data collection of anonymous searchterms from our various systems, algorithmic detection of patterns (such as ISSN, ISBN, DOI, PMID), data lookups of facts about detected patterns, and a staff workflow to categorize searchterms our algorithmic approach cannot yet understand.
The hope is that TACOS will provide insight into what a user is intending to search for _before_ we ask a traditional search system to process that search.
TACOS is coming soon!
