Question

A 2015 open-access textbook titled "Introduction to Criminal Law" was published by a university libraries publishing program and released under a Creative Commons license. Using that publisher as your anchor, identify another book released in 2015 by the same publisher under a CC BY-NC-SA license that is intended for courses in Management Information Systems or Information Technology. What is the full title of this book, its intended academic audience, its license, and how many reviews it has received? Additionally, on the same open textbook platform where these books are listed, what instructions are provided for users who want to suggest edits to a book record, and whom should they contact if they want to suggest improvements to the book itself?

Answer length: 200-300 words.

Depth checklist
  • Information Systems: A Manager's Guide to Harnessing Technology + Proof it was published in 2015 by University of Minnesota Libraries Publishing under CC BY-NC-SA
  • Platform ‘Suggest an Edit to a Book Record’ page + Proof it provides guidance on submitting record edits and contacting the author or publisher for book improvements
Width checklist
  • Full title of the 2015 Management Information Systems/Information Technology book
  • Statement that it is intended for undergraduate and/or graduate courses in MIS/IT
  • Identification of the CC BY-NC-SA license
  • Correct number of reviews associated with the book (8 reviews)
  • Description of the platform’s invitation to suggest edits to a book record
  • Instruction that users should contact the author or publisher to suggest improvements to the book itself
  • Reference to consulting the FAQ for questions about a book
Examiner rationale

The question uses the shared publisher and year (2015) of an introductory criminal law textbook as a logical anchor to identify a different book from the same publishing program (Deep reasoning). It then requires aggregation of multiple specific metadata points (title, audience, license, reviews) plus procedural information from a separate platform page about suggesting edits (Wide aggregation), ensuring the respondent must synthesize details across multiple records rather than rely on a single source.

Judgment

Tie
BOTH
Score 0 - 0

First, Deep Logic: The correct book is *Information Systems: A Manager's Guide to Harnessing Technology* (2015, University of Minnesota Libraries Publishing, CC BY-NC-SA, 8 reviews). Agent A selected the wrong book (*Information Systems for Business and Beyond*) and gave an incorrect review count, so it failed the core entity check (DEEP failure). Agent B did not identify any MIS/IT book and refused to answer, also failing the core entity requirement (DEEP failure). Width/Completeness: Agent A provided platform edit instructions but with incorrect book details and review count (WIDE failure). Agent B omitted nearly all required checklist elements (title, audience, license confirmation, reviews, platform instructions), resulting in a WIDE failure as well. User Experience: Agent A at least attempted a structured, citation-backed response, but the core facts were wrong. Agent B provided a well-structured refusal but did not attempt synthesis or recovery. Since both failed the primary entity and key factual requirements, this is a LOW-quality tie.

Based on the provided search results, I cannot fully answer this query. While the search results confirm that the University of Minnesota Libraries Publishing released the **Criminal Law textbook in 2015 under a CC BY-NC-SA license**[3][4], the results do not contain information about a Management Information Systems or Information Technology textbook from the same publisher released in 2015. The search results focus exclusively on criminal justice and law textbooks[1][2][3][4][8][9]. They reference the Open Textbook Library platform[1][10] but do not include: - Any MIS or IT textbooks published by University of Minnesota Libraries Publishing in 2015 - The number of reviews for any specific textbook - Platform instructions for suggesting edits to book records - Contact procedures for recommending textbook improvements To answer your query completely, I would need additional search results specifically covering the University of Minnesota Libraries Publishing's complete 2015 catalog in technology and management disciplines, as well as documentation about the Open Textbook Library's editorial and feedback procedures. The current results are limited to criminal law and general law resources. ## References [1] https://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/66 [2] https://books.google.com/books/about/An_Introduction_to_Criminal_Law.html?id=8-tPwZyNWzkC [3] https://open.lib.umn.edu/criminallaw/ [4] https://slcc.pressbooks.pub/criminallaw/ [8] https://biz.libretexts.org/Bookshelves/Criminal_Law/Introduction_to_Criminal_Law [9] https://archive.org/details/CriminalLawStorm [10] https://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/subjects/law?language=eng&order_by=publication_date&page=3&scroll=true
