Touted as the next-generation approach to research, discovery solutions have become a critical component within most academic library systems, playing a vital role in the effort to showcase the value of a library’s collection, providing a unified index and changing the way resources are searched. As libraries have shifted focus from print catalogs and resources to OPACs, e-journals, eBooks, subject indexes and full-text databases, it’s become necessary for the perception and habits of the search experience to evolve as well—for both end users and library administrators.   We will look at recent enhancements and focus on the integration of Discovery Search into your Learning Management System (Moodle, Blackboard, Canvas and others)     There will also be an overview of new EBSCO resources including: 

Flipster – Offers quick and easy access to top magazines in an easy-to-read digital format to support and enhance the research experience for college and university students.   

Plum Analytics -  This tool helps to categorize, measure and analyze the research taking place at your institution.   Plum Analytics tracks more than 20 different types of artifacts, including journal articles, books, videos, presentations, conference proceedings, datasets, source code, cases, and more.
