Changes Coming to our Library Search & Discovery of Resources

Apri 7, 2025

Get ready for a more streamlined and powerful research experience! On June 15th, the library is launching new and improved platforms and interfaces for our discovery layer, EBSCO databases, A-Z database list, and journal finder, making it easier to access our extensive resources. Additionally, we are giving our discovery layer a new name – Norse Discovery.

While you'll still have access to the same comprehensive content, the new interfaces offer a host of exciting enhancements. You can look forward to:

  • Intuitive Navigation: Streamlined design for easier browsing and resource discovery.
  • Intuitive Limiters and Facets: Simplified filtering for efficient searching.
  • Seamless eBook and Concept Map Access: Dive deeper into your research with integrated tools.
  • Personalized Dashboards: Customize your experience to your specific research needs.
  • New Ways to Share and Like Resources: Enhanced collaboration and resource sharing.
  • Improved Translation Features: Greater accessibility for multilingual users.
  • Enhanced Accessibility Standards: Improved usability for all users.
