Liberty University selects Summon service to improve discovery of resources -

Serials Solutions, a US-based provider of tools and services for libraries and a business unit of ProQuest LLC, has announced that Liberty University (LU) has selected Serials Solutions' Summon web-scale discovery service.

The Summon discovery service enables a familiar web-searching experience of the full breadth of content found in library collections - from books and videos to e-resources at the article level. In addition, because the Summon service is offered as Software as a Service (SaaS), it is continually being enhanced and improved. An example of this is the Serials Solutions pilot programme recently announced for its Summon service with JSTOR.

This pilot project will allow students and researchers at institutions subscribing to the Summon web-scale discovery service to automatically find their library's Summon service search box when they use JSTOR. In addition to the content available on JSTOR, users will be able to easily discover additional materials in their particular library's collection, enabling faster, simpler research.
