Abstract
The purpose of this project is to identify trends in the design and content of home pages for web sites of Science-Engineering Libraries. Forty-five web sites from universities in the USA and Canada are chosen and their design characteristics and hypertext links analyzed. In addition, full-text journals, Internet resources and access to e-journals through the online catalog are examined. Using the program Excel, data collected from each home page are tabulated. The most common elements are then incorporated into a model home page that visually shows the predominant design characteristics and hypertext links on this type of web site. The results show that in general the current design of home pages for Science- Engineering Libraries contain many of the elements found in home pages of academic libraries. Among the characteristics found are images, screen lengths, colors, number and types of links, and link headings. The content of these web sites is also analyzed and summarized.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
