Library automation solutions provider Ex Libris Group has announced that the University of South Australia (UniSA), the University of Western Sydney (UWS), and New Zealand's Otago University have chosen the Ex Libris Primo discovery and delivery solution to complement their Ex Libris Alma library management service. As a result, these institutions will offer users a unified discovery experience that is seamlessly integrated with library services and operations.
According to Holley Dumble, Ex Libris director of sales for Australia and New Zealand, the appeal of an integrated framework that encompasses both resource management and discovery is becoming stronger for libraries that want to make a high impact with a lower investment in technology. Because Primo and Alma are offered as cloud-based services, the technical burden for library staff is very small, while the potential benefits in efficiency and the usage of scholarly resources are huge.
Ex Libris provides efficient, user-friendly products that serve the needs of libraries today and will facilitate their transition into the future. Dedicated to developing creative solutions in close collaboration with customers, Ex Libris enables libraries to maximize productivity and efficiency and, at the same time, greatly enhance the user experience.
