Choice, a publishing unit of the Association of College & Research Libraries (ACRL), and The Charleston Company have announced plans to collaborate on a new reference product, an online review source for academic databases and digital resources, with the working name of CC Advisor. CC Advisor will be published on the database platform recently launched at Choice.
The goal is to unveil a working prototype at the Charleston Conference in November and to launch in time for the ACRL 2017 conference to be held March 22-25, 2017, in Baltimore.
Editorial efforts will be spearheaded by The Charleston Advisor team. The new product will offer enhanced and updated reviews from The Charleston Advisor archive. New and revised reviews will be added monthly and commissioned especially for the work. Design plans for CC Advisor include a user-friendly interface, extensive search and retrieval functionality, and improved navigation.
Updating will be continuous. An enhanced "competitive analysis" section and an "on the fly" database comparison option will make CC Advisor unique.
