Making hidden treasures more visible with Discovery Collections

At the University of Leeds Library, we’ve been using Discovery Collections for four years and are deepening our exploration of all available functionality to promote our collections. In this session we introduce Discovery Collection functionality from a basic level for other libraries who may not use them at all, investigate the benefits for user navigation and browsing, and explain the Alma functionality for creating and maintaining the collections including options for display customization. We discuss the different approaches to Discovery Collection creation, from co-curation of reading lists with University stakeholders to Alma’s new functionality using logical sets to populate collections.
