Primo/Summon Discovery Panel. Three years after - impacts of the merger on both products
Conference or Developers Day
Conference
Abstract
In 2015 the merger of Ex Libris and ProQuest was announced. As a consequence the two discovery products, Primo and Summon, were brought together under the umbrella of Ex Libris. The panelists will discuss the impact of this process on the two products. The first topic will be the exchange of functions between both products (DB Recommender, Analytics). A second topic will be the merging of the two communities. In addition, we will discuss the future development of both products (especially enhanced functions via API). We will end with a summary of our expectations for the future of both products.
Main Topic
Summon
Other (Cross-product / General / Strategic)
