Serials Solutions today announced that it has added over 500,000 eBooks from more than twenty providers to Serials Solutions® KnowledgeWorks, the authoritative e-resource knowledgebase. KnowledgeWorks provides the foundation for Serials Solutions 360 by integrating reliable metadata with all of the Serials Solutions 360 e-resource access and management services.

Now patrons can search for and find eBook collections through 360 Core, 360 Link and 360 Search. Libraries can effectively manage eBooks with 360 Resource Manager. In mid-July, the 360 MARC Updates OPAC updating service will make the same eBooks collections available the OPAC.

“Because KnowledgeWorks is integrated with Serials Solutions 360, any new data we add becomes available in all of our services. Not only that, but the Web-based nature of Serials Solutions’ software means that all of our subscribers can immediately access and benefit from updates,” says Nicole Pelsinsky, Product Manager at Serials Solutions. “Now, librarians can better manage all of their e-resources - e-journals, eBooks, and more - in one place using one set of integrated solutions.”

The professional librarians at Serials Solutions work closely with content providers to develop and maintain an accurate and up-to-date knowledgebase. Serials Solutions’ librarians correct missing and erroneous data received from content providers and then normalize titles across vendors to create authority sources. This higher quality data provides search results, better MARC Records, better connections, and more accurate subscription management and analysis.

Serials Solutions KnowledgeWorks is the most accurate and comprehensive knowledgebase, and is the only knowledgebase that provides integration for a complete e-resource access and management solutions. As of May 2008 KnowledgeWorks included over 7,000 databases, 125,000 unique titles, 500,000 eBooks, and 1,500,000 Authority MARC records.
