STM publisher Elsevier has announced that content from Knovel, an engineering decision-support solution, is discoverable through the EBSCO Discovery Service™ (EDS). The integration allows mutual customers to combine answers from high quality engineering references within a unified search platform, as well as directly access Knovel subscription content via the EDS platform.
Exposure of high value content is extended to the broader organisation, increasing utilisation via a simplified user experience.
Discovery platforms, such as EDS, provide a unified search experience. Through a single search box, users can retrieve results from all resources available to them from their organisation. This enables users to access a wide range of references, and helps organisations to better promote the resources in which they have invested.
The integration is available to mutual customers at no cost. In order for customers to access the entitlements available in their Knovel subscription, configuration is required within the EBSCO admin™ utility. Elsevier recommends that customers contact their EBSCO customer service representative for assistance as needed.
Knovel is an engineering decision-support solution enabling engineers to confidently answer technical questions, drawing upon trusted data from more than 120 providers through a cloud-based platform with powerful search and interactive analytical tools.
