Library resources provider EBSCO Information Services (EBSCO) has announced that the Boston College High School has chosen EBSCO Discovery Service (EDS) as the basis for their library resource Corcoran One Search.
As recipient of the 2013 ALA Cutting Edge Technology Award, Boston College High School was looking for approaches that used responsive web design to 'meet students where they are.' After looking at several services, the librarians found that EDS had many highly desirable features including responsive web design, mobile accessibility and an easy-to-use discovery layer platform for students.
EBSCO Discovery Service has continued to grow in popularity across the Boston College High School campus due to its ease of use and many unique features such as the AP news updates and Twitter feeds conveniently located on the side bar of the screen.
Boston College High School has also implemented many of the customisation features including branding the EDS layout and adding links to their other library pages - making the search experience truly unique for its users.
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.
