Abstract

Analysis of the user interfaces of 31 Spanish heritage repositories in order to identify their strengths and shortcomings. The elements analyzed (help screens, multilingual search, search methods, query languages, etc.) have been established from the literature referred specifically to the user interfaces of all kind of repositories, as well as that from a different or broader perspective (for example, library catalog interfaces, usability). Several recommendations are made to improve the weaknesses identified.
