Abstract

The Summon web-scale discovery service (from Serials Solutions) aims to simplify access to the breadth of the library’s resources via a simple single search box. By harvesting and indexing metadata from publishers and local library collections it facilitates resource discovery and access to multiple library collections whether in print or electronic form.
