EBSCO and Stacks Inc. release Stacks, a user-focused web platform that creates the best library experience possible -

Libraries can now change the look and feel of their websites instantly with the release of Stacks, a hosted, turnkey web content management system designed specifically for libraries. Stacks is available through EBSCO Information Services (EBSCO), empowering libraries to engage their patrons anytime, anywhere.

With Stacks customisable themes, configurable drag-and-drop layouts, social media integrations, granular user roles and multi-language support for more than 60 languages, libraries are now able to create online content with ease. Stacks allows libraries to market programs and services, manage event registrations and room bookings, conduct surveys and polls and create research guides. It also enables libraries to surface all of their collections and provide the best possible search and discovery experience and more—all within one easy-to-use, dashboard-driven, responsive platform.

Stacks supports all external catalogues and a contemporary bento-box style search that enables each library to create a tailored search experience. Deep integrations with Cover Art, Review and Recommendation providers, Integrated Library Systems, Google Places and many more are easy to configure and provide a rich and meaningful experience with every digital library visit.

Built on user experience best practices and industry-leading mobile-first philosophies, Stacks makes creating intuitive designs, engaging content and world-class digital library experiences simple. Stacks is optimized for best-in-class performance and is sustainable with an annual subscription model covering updates, security, maintenance and ongoing support.

Another way that Stacks helps to create the best library experience for patrons is that it integrates with EBSCO Discovery Service™ (EDS). According to EBSCO Senior Vice President, Business Development & Strategy, Mark Herrick, this allows libraries to provide the ultimate research experience.
