Meeting of the Mind

Reference Extract, a project of OCLC and the information schools of Syracuse University and the University of Washington, is an effort to provide more credibility in searching.

According to the econtentmag article: Users will enter a search term and receive results weighted toward sites most often used by librarians at institutions such as the Library of Congress, the University of Washington, the State Library of Maryland, and over 2,000 other libraries worldwide.

At Syracuse, it is part of the Credibility Commons project, which seems to concentrate more on belief and opinion than on attention and more basic neuropsychological responses.
