ABSTRACT:
A method for searching identifying data in a library or a collection of libraries. The method includes the steps of compiling a master library of data and determining the overlap of data from an independent library to sub-library within the master library. The purpose is to determine the range of overlapping data between two libraries, and make recommendations of data omitted from one of the libraries if the libraries are determined to be closely related. In determining the proximity of the libraries, a comparison of names between the libraries is conducted based upon a factor. Thereafter, the libraries are assigned a rank based upon a criteria and a score is assigned to the library based upon the closeness of the rank of the data in the library to the data in the master library.
