GOBI® Library Solutions from EBSCO (GOBI Library Solutions) has partnered with Capita to offer a fully integrated and automated acquisitions workflow solution. The new partnership provides academic libraries using the Capita Library Management System (LMS) with seamless access to GOBI®, the leading web-based acquisitions tool for finding, ordering and managing e-books and print books for libraries.
The partnership with Capita allows GOBI customers in England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland and Northern Ireland, to access the entire suite of GOBI acquisitions tools and millions of e-books and print books available in GOBI. With the integration, the selection and purchase process begins in the GOBI workflow, and orders are seamlessly pushed to Capita for review. Once approved, orders are automatically returned to GOBI for completion, and invoices are shared electronically via the Capita Gateway Electronic Data Interchange (EDI).
With access to more than 15 million titles, including more than one million e-books, GOBI Library Solutions supplies e-books and print books to thousands of academic, government and medical libraries in more than 60 countries. In addition to a variety of content, GOBI Library Solutions helps librarians streamline their collection development workflows by providing books from the top academic publishers; real-time ordering solutions; e-books within minutes; a choice of e-book suppliers and multiple purchase options; itemised invoicing; and centralised customer service and UK-based distribution centers.
GOBI customers also benefit from duplication control across all formats, full-text reviews and refined selection lists. GOBI provides Spotlight Lists highlighting premier and high-interest titles, real-time management reports and more. GOBI is provided by GOBI Library Solutions, a division of EBSCO Information Services. As a part of EBSCO, GOBI has offices in the United Kingdom and knowledgeable customer service staff to help provide support for customers.
