Ex Libris®, a ProQuest company, has announced that the University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) will be implementing the Ex Libris Alma® library management service combined with the Ex Libris Primo® discovery and delivery solution to meet the needs and expectations of the library's increasingly digital-native community of users.
The library environment at UCLan has significantly changed over the past decade as the nature of the student population and of scholarly resources has evolved. UCLan therefore decided to acquire a library services platform that manages digital resources, metadata, and licenses in addition to print collections. Together, the Alma and Primo solutions will provide high-quality services to the entire university community—teaching staff, students, and library teams.
Through the seamless workflows between Alma and Primo, UCLan anticipates simplifying the library's processes and increasing its efficiency, thus enabling librarians to address new information and service needs. The library's ability to provide users with a rapid, seamless delivery of resources of all types and to leverage advanced analytics will increase the library's value to the university while enhancing the students' discovery and learning experience.
