July 20, 2016, LEHI, UT—SirsiDynix is excited to announce a major expansion of eResource Central (eRC) with the availability of the new Wheelers ePlatform connector. Wheelers is a specialist school and public library supplier. The addition of the Wheelers ePlatform connector to eRC will substantially expand resources available to the Asia-Pacific region.
ePlatform offers 350,000+ titles from 3,500 publishers worldwide. Recently the ePlatform team completed a significant stride in simplifying the distribution of these digital resources by completing the development of an API that integrates ePlatform’s collections into the SirsiDynix eRC platform. eRC is a resource management platform that allows libraries to seamlessly integrate records for physical and digital resources in one place for easy discovery. The intuitive eRC delivery allows users streamlined access to the newly integrated ePlatform content.
“We’re delighted to deliver this integration to enhance the ePlatform user experience even further,” said Wheelers Managing Director Paul du Temple.
“We’re very excited to partner with ePlatform to bring our libraries optimal access to extensive resources,” said SirsiDynix CEO Bill Davison. “Our ongoing mission with eRC is to incorporate the industry’s premium content with the Best Library User Experience. The new ePlatform connector accomplishes both—delivering excellent resources through the simplicity of eRC.”
APAC region eRC customers interested in activating the ePlatform connector should contact their SirsiDynix account manager.
