Question

How is Predicted to be of interest to your institution calculated?

Answer

The Ranking Boost Predicted to be of interest to your institution is a scaling, work-level boost for works that combines the Predicted to be Popular and Historical usage at your institution boosts. This will promote works in results that are not only projected to sell well, but may also be of interest to your institution.

The calculation for this boost is based on a combination of factors:

• 70% overall predicted to be popular
• 15% a measure of holdings
• 15% usage

The Ranking Boost Predicted to be of interest to your institution can be found in the drop-down options under Ranking Profiles.
