Electronic research databases provider EBSCO Publishing (EBSCO), US, has announced that Ankara University, one of the largest universities in Turkey, has chosen EBSCO Discovery Service - expanding on its successful use of EBSCOhost Integrated Search (EHIS) and bringing the latest technology to users.
Ankara University has chosen to implement the Complete Discovery Solution from EBSCO which includes not only EBSCO Discovery Service and EBSCOhost Integrated Search but also EBSCO A-to-Z and LinkSource. These four separate elements can work together in what is referred to as the Complete Discovery Solution adding access to resources that are unavailable through discovery plus an A to Z listing service and a link resolver to discovery.
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. The EDS Base Index forms the foundation upon which each EDS subscribing library builds out its custom collection. Beginning with the Base Index, each institution extends the reach of EDS by adding appropriate resources including its catalog, institutional repositories, EBSCOhost and other databases, and additional content sources to which it subscribes.
The EDS Base Index is contains metadata from the world's foremost information providers. At present, the EDS Base Index represents content from approximately 20,000 providers in addition to metadata from another 70,000 book publishers.
