Abstract
Ex Libris's acquisition by ProQuest in 2015 has had an influence on Content operations (new approaches, consolidation of the different KBs and indexes, reorganization of Content teams, etc.). In the last few years, lots of changes have impacted library staff involved in content updates and operations: Alma has gained market share, replacing SFX for many institutions, and has become compatible with Summon, Electronic Collection contribution process has been deployed, KBART automation has been introduced, Institutional Repository Program has been reactivated, PCI Activation widget was redesigned, Content Corner sections on the Knowledge Center provide more information that in the past, etc. Moreover, the new Ex Libris Provider Zone and the new Central Discovery Index are now in the last steps of development. All these changes will form a background for this panel discussion, but it will go beyond that and include experiences from customers who are involved with e-resources management.
