[OPLINLIST] NoveList feature: linking directly to/from your library's OPAC

[Laura Solomon]

Did you know that you can link your catalog directly to the EBSCO 
NoveList database?  You can see this feature in action by searching, for 
example, Harry Potter in the Clark County Public Library catalog 
(http://catalog.ccpl.lib.oh.us/).  Many fiction books have links to 
NoveList, which in turn gives patrons additional descriptive 
information, author web sites, reviews, awards and more for the selected 
item. 

This same feature can be activated by your library, if it uses Polaris, 
SirsiDynix (Sirsi/DRA WEB2 or Sirsi/Unicorn) or III  integrated library 
systems.  Contact your ILS vendor directly to activate this feature.

In addition, the reverse is also possible; EBSCO can link items in 
NoveList back to your catalog, at no charge.  If you are interested in 
setting this up for your catalog, please contact EBSCO Publishing 
Technical Support at http://support.ebscohost.com/contact/askus.php .
