Library automation solutions provider Ex Libris Group, Israel, has announced that the Get It Now service from Copyright Clearance Center (CCC) will be available through Ex Libris discovery and delivery solutions. The service will enable Primo and SFX users in the US to receive PDF copies of articles from journals to which their library doesn't subscribe.
Get It Now was developed with the participation of the California State University (CSU) and the Information Delivery Services (IDS) Project, a resource-sharing management system developed and maintained by the State University of New York at Geneseo. Get It Now covers tens of thousands of articles from over 8,400 journals from leading publishers, including Elsevier, John Wiley & Sons, Wolters Kluwer, Nature Publishing Group, and the American Society of Clinical Oncology. Publishers are being added on an ongoing basis.
The integration of Get It Now with Primo and SFX reflects the growing trend among academic libraries toward enabling users to find and access content that the libraries themselves don't own or license. The Get it Now service therefore meets libraries' increasing preference for user-driven, just-in-time collection development.
