Exploratory environments can overcome the limitations of keyword-based access, criticized for the difficulty of formulating specific queries in large and complex domains and for its incapability of promoting personalized exploration paths. In this paper, we describe a task-based user study (n=16) aimed at testing the use of a narrative model for supporting exploratory search in cultural heritage archives. The results show that a narrative model can actually support the exploration of cultural heritage archives, accommodating unknown and unexpected elements and relations into user-created paths, although further investigation on failed tasks is needed.

Abstract
Exploratory environments can overcome the limitations of keyword-based access, criticized for the difficulty of formulating specific queries in large and complex domains and for its incapability of promoting personalized exploration paths. In this paper, we describe a task-based user study (n=16) aimed at testing the use of a narrative model for supporting exploratory search in cultural heritage archives. The results show that a narrative model can actually support the exploration of cultural heritage archives, accommodating unknown and unexpected elements and relations into user-created paths, although further investigation on failed tasks is needed.
