Our previous post included observations about how using data from the Summon service can improve information literacy.

Over the next two months we are celebrating our team of data librarians and highlighting how they move Serials Solutions, libraries, and users forward with their commitment to librarianship.

With the March 31 implementation date set by the Library of Congress and several other national libraries for the new Resource Description and Access (RDA) cataloging guidelines quickly approaching, the library community is buzzing with questions.

“Library interfaces should use information literacy standards in the design.”

Libraries exist to support the academic mission of the institution.

“It doesn’t happen very often in an instruction session that the faculty member will stand up and almost cheer,” said Amy Faye Fin, formerly of Bowling Green State University.

Serials Solutions announced today the Summon® discovery service now includes content from more than 100 abstract and indexing (A&I) databases – including nearly 90 ProQuest databases.

The Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) has awarded eight ProQuest Library Support Staff Scholarships for the ACRL 2013 Conference to be held April 10-13, 2013 in Indianapolis.

In his role as Senior Product Manager, Discovery Services, Eddie Neuwirth focuses on the Summon service.
