O'Reilly, the premier source for insight-driven learning in technology and business, has announced several enhancements to its SafariTM platform - including new single-sign-on capabilities, customisable and shareable playlists, mobile application improvements and an improved analytics dashboard for users. O'Reilly's new Safari platform demonstrates its commitment to ongoing innovation and enhancements for users of its learning platform.
The upgraded platform is available through ProQuest, O’Reilly's partner in the academic market, with a full-time, equivalent-based pricing model and unlimited content access for faculty and students. Access to O’Reilly's Safari platform arms academic institutions with critical business and technology content and new learning models for researching and understanding of new technologies.
The new features and enhancements to Safari include single-sign-on through EZproxy, an access and authentication software that connects content providers, enabling academic libraries to easily configure their accounts so users can access the platform without entering their log-in information.
Users can now create custom lists of content, from chapters and short video clips to entire books, and then share playlists with their community. Learning paths combine text and video to improve learning success. Each learning path is a logical, well-crafted sequence of expert-led learning content designed to help users progress at their own pace. The O’Reilly mobile app can now save and organise content in playlists, has enhanced search functionality, faster downloads and an updated reading experience. Safari's new Insights and Analytics Dashboard offers librarians and administrators data insights into the content and formats with which their academic community is engaging. The new feature has drastically faster load times and enables users to download reports on-demand.
In addition to the new platform enhancements, the new Safari platform includes technology and business eBooks from more than 250 publishers along with videos, case studies and exclusively produced content from world-renowned innovators and corporate leaders. It also provides expert-curated learning paths and self-assessments to meet the needs of all learners.
