S 1.4.3: Search Tools
Increasing efficiency of search tools. Other Information:
The Development Experience Clearinghouse (DEC) contains thousands of USAID-funded resources documenting the Agency's half-century
of foreign assistance. Additional metadata such as contract numbers, subject descriptors, and translated titles are being
added to the records to help users search for and evaluate those documents that will be most useful to them. The goal is to
develop and assign metadata that facilitates searching and enables users to find materials that are relevant to them. Further,
the staff also continues to convert older materials to digital format while further enhancing the DEC collection by searching
for new development-related resources. New tools for better searching and filtering will be rolled out in the DEC 2.0.
