Starting December 21, 2020, students will notice changes on the libraries’ websites. When searching for books, databases, and other research resources through the libraries, you will interact with a next-generation library catalog and discovery tool.
New features include relevancy-ranked results and updated information on how to access items. A major new resource is “Primo Central,” an index that provides easy access to over a billion citations to scholarly materials obtained from various publishers and open access repositories. With this new discovery tool, you will also be able to easily:
- Save records, searches, and search histories
- Add records and searches to a “favorites” cache
- Save records to various citation managers
- Create permanent links to records
- Access materials with single sign-on
- Request materials via Delivery/Interlibrary loan
- Virtually browse books on the shelf around materials in your search results
