Ex Libris® Group, a global provider of cloud‑based solutions for higher education, has announced that the University of Bath is to replace its SirsiDynix Symphony® integrated library system with the Ex Libris Alma® library management service. At the same time, the University is adopting the Leganto® reading-list solution from Ex Libris.
The newest addition to the Ex Libris product suite, Leganto is a standalone, cloud‑based service for creating, maintaining, evaluating, using, and sharing course reading lists. Leganto facilitates collaboration between lecturers, librarians and students, and helps the library to become a more active partner in the teaching and learning processes, provides more control over copyright compliance, and helps librarians to develop collections to optimally serve the institution’s academic goals.
The University of Bath is one of the UK's leading universities in terms of both research and reputation for excellence in teaching, learning and graduate prospects. In the 2015 Times Higher Education (THE) Student Experience Survey the university was ranked first overall out of 113 UK universities and in the top three for 12 of the categories.
