Every collection, any device, one search. Coming soon.
It’s almost time to introduce your staff and patrons to SirsiDynix’s next-generation discovery application, BLUEcloud Discovery. Built from the ground up on BLUEcloud architecture, this modern, fully responsive solution is designed to optimize performance, streamline the search experience, and deliver stronger search relevancy. Read on to see what sets BLUEcloud Discovery apart, and what you can expect come launch.
Speed up app configuration, maintenance, and training with BLUEcloud Discovery’s easy-to-navigate UI and intuitive approach to daily workflows.
Help more patrons reach your content with a WCAG 2.2 AA-aligned interface that includes a dark-mode toggle, responsive design across devices, and compatibility with common assistive technologies.
Decide what’s discoverable and define how search results behave, configuring filters, display labels, grouped records, relevancy ranking, and search limits from a centralized search policy.
Ensure patrons return results that match the search at hand with ready-made approaches to relevancy, like popular relevancy (which prioritizes availability) and research relevancy (which emphasizes topical relevancy).
Carry your library’s branding across search results, item details, patron accounts, and your homepage by picking a predefined theme or using the theme generator to create your own, with colors automatically adjusted to meet WCAG AA contrast.
Surface content from across your library’s collections, including the ILS catalog, CloudSource OA, eResource Central materials, and MARC collections, with a single search.
Use advanced search capabilities, like filters and record grouping, to build targeted searches that return highly precise results.
Save your most-frequent searches, filters and all, and receive visual alerts every time a new match hits the catalog.
Pull titles into custom lists with the click of a button, then choose to share them with others, add notes, or set read dates to track the status of your TBR pile in real time.
Manage Discovery settings—and adjust individual details as needed—entirely through BLUEcloud Central.
Keep rules consistent throughout the patron experience with hold and location policies shared across BLUEcloud Discovery and BLUEcloud Mobile2.
