Maken similarity service

Maken similarity for nb.no book and image search results

This browser extension builds upon the Maken similarity service (https://www.nb.no/maken/), an official service by the National Library of Norway, and it integrates itself into the existing search features of the main https://nb.no site. When enabled, it will add a new button for each result in the books and images categories. These buttons show the text "Lignende gjenstander" ("Similar items" in Norwegian). When clicked, a small section opens up at the bottom of the screen displaying similar items to the ones the user has clicked. The elements displayed are links that can take the user to the specific related items for further inspection. It provides a new discovery tool developed by the AI Lab at the National Library of Norway, but without having to leave the main library website.
