Ex Libris®, a ProQuest company, has announced that the University of Hawai'i (UH) System has selected the Ex Libris Alma® library services platform, which will be integrated with the library's Ex Libris Primo® discovery and delivery solution.
UH will modernise its libraries by reengineering back-end processes and leveraging the future-proof Ex Libris platform and infrastructure to manage all types of resources, both owned and licensed, and make them available to end users. Retiring its legacy software, which includes the Ex Libris Voyager® integrated library system, UH will use Alma workflows to handle the complete life cycle of print and electronic resources.
Through Alma's out-of-the-box consortium support, UH will establish a dedicated consortial zone of the 10 individual institutions in the UH System. Consortium members will be able to share data and analytics, facilitate the lending and borrowing of materials, and participate in consortium-wide workflows. The deep Alma and Primo integration will assist the member libraries in optimising services; enhancing the user experience; and maximising discoverability, resource sharing, and collaboration.
