SUNYConnect, a New York library system of public institutions of higher education, has implemented EBSCO Discovery Service™ (EDS) from EBSCO Information Services (EBSCO) as its discovery solution provider. SUNYConnect is an entity of the State University of New York (SUNY) and the largest comprehensive system of universities, colleges, and community colleges in the United States. Of the 60 SUNYConnect institutions, 51 have opted to implement EDS and initial feedback has been very positive.
Feedback from SUNY librarians and staff has also been positive with regard to the robust features and functionality including widgets, custom catalogues, searching institutional repository content and EBSCO's Research Starters which provide users with the most applicable information in an easy to digest format.
EBSCO's Curriculum Builder LMS plugin provides an easy way to create and manage course reading lists right from an institution's Learning Management System.
EBSCO Discovery Service creates a unified, customised index of an institution's information resources, and an easy, yet powerful means of accessing all of that content from a single search box.
