Ex Libris®, a ProQuest company, has announced that National Taiwan University (NTU) has chosen the Ex Libris Alma® library services platform to replace the school's library management system.
In addition, NTU's local implementation of the Ex Libris Primo® discovery and delivery solution will be migrated to the cloud and integrated with the Alma platform. Through the software-as-a-service model, the university library services will enjoy benefit from the real-time synchronisation and automatic updates of the Alma and Primo software solutions.
The evaluation process for the library platform focused on several main requirements: open access, flexibility, extension capabilities and plug-ins, support for traditional Chinese characters, and adaptability to accommodate the library's specific needs. Furthermore, as NTU embarks on a restructuring of its library and the adoption of the Resource Description and Access (RDA) standard, Alma's support for this standard will facilitate the review and streamlining of workflows and processes.
