The characteristics of the short document representatives and short queries of OPAC systems need the different ranking algorithms from IR systems. This study tested and analyzed the effectiveness of four sorting schemes and four ranking algorithms and the six effectiveness measurements for the ranked Boolean OPAC systems. The sorting by publication year was better but without significant difference. The cover density ranking was significantly better than the frequency-based ranking of the Fuzzy or DNF models. The simple effectiveness measurement based on the average rank of relevant documents retrieved was as good as the others and better than the precision P.
