Ex Libris®, a ProQuest company, has announced that the University of Deusto will be replacing its AMICUS library management system with Ex Libris Alma® and will migrate from an on-premises discovery system to a SaaS implementation of the Ex Libris Primo® discovery and delivery solution. Students, instructors, researchers, and library staff will all benefit from the Alma-Primo combination.
Additional factors in the library's decision to adopt the Alma and Primo combination include the Ex Libris vendor-neutral approach to content, the close integration of Primo and Alma, and the rich analytics that Alma provides. Alma analytics will help the library save on costs and ensure that acquisitions are both optimal and timely.
Founded in 1886, the University of Deusto is the oldest private university in Spain. A Jesuit institution, Deusto has an enrollment of over 10,000 students on its Bilbao and San Sebastián campuses and in the Deusto Business School in Madrid. The six faculties and schools—plus an associated teacher training college—are supported by the library, which resides in a building in Campus Bilbao.
