In an era where digital resources are abundant but often fragmented, we are committed to "Bringing Users Back to the Library" by leveraging the latest AI technologies and seamless content workflow integrations. Our innovative solutions, in partnership with leading industry tools, ensure that the library remains a central hub for academic discovery, research, and content access.

We will present "Article Galaxy Scholar" (AGS) integrated with Scite.ai (a powerful discovery tool built on a database of 1.3Bn Smart Citations mined from article full text and supported with an AI Assistant). AGS is a platform designed to elevate the library user experience by enhancing discovery, access, and engagement with academic content. AGS empowers libraries to offer their patrons seamless access to over 33,000 journals, on a supplemental basis beyond typical library subscriptions, ensuring that users can easily discover and utilize the scholarly resources they need.

Key Benefits of AGS:

• Enhancing User Discovery and Access: AGS bridges collection gaps by providing comprehensive access to a wide array of scholarly materials, making it easier for users to find and engage with the content that matters most.
• Streamlining Library Operations: Through integrations with leading systems like ALMA, RapidILL, Rapido, and LibKey, AGS simplifies the research process, offering users quick and efficient access to necessary content while freeing up library staff to focus on other critical tasks.
• Supporting Informed Budget Management: AGS includes advanced tools for budget monitoring, helping libraries to manage resources effectively while ensuring that patrons always have access to essential materials.
• Prioritizing Open Access: AGS actively promotes the use of open access content, aligning with the broader movement towards freely available scholarly publishing and ensuring users have access to high-quality, accessible resources.

A standout feature of our approach is the integration of AGS with LibKey from Third Iron and Scite.ai, tools that significantly enrich the user experience. LibKey enhances discovery and access by allowing seamless retrieval of full-text articles from databases and publisher websites. Meanwhile, Scite.ai, used by thousands of students for its AI-powered assistant, offers advanced citation analysis that provides deeper insights into how articles are cited, helping users assess the relevance and impact of their research findings.

This holistic approach supports our mission to "Bring Users Back to the Library" by making the library an indispensable resource in the academic journey. Join us to explore how AGS and Scite.ai, along with its powerful integrations, can transform your library’s operations and significantly enhance the research experience for your patrons.
