ProQuest has introduced an integration of the Summon® discovery service with the SIPX® course materials solution that delivers libraries an innovative, cost-saving approach for the seamless sharing of library collections and open access content into course materials workflows. The sophisticated Summon-SIPX connection bolsters the relevance, visibility, and value of the library across campus by making it easy for instructors to discover and assign any readings they want to use in traditional and online classes, including showcasing library holdings and open content.
The new integration represents another example of ProQuest bringing together its services to benefit libraries, researchers, educators and students, by integrating best-in-class content and discovery tools with the curriculum tools that faculty and students want. Faculty and staff can quickly set up and share course readings by adding items to SIPX from Summon search results, taking advantage of seamless single-sign-on flow that eliminates any need to train users.
Available as an additional purchase option, activating the SIPX integration into Summon is simple and requires no local development effort – it turns on with a single click in the Summon administrative module.
