Ex Libris, a ProQuest company, has announced a release of its Summon discovery service

Recommended, a service which connects the research community with the most relevant content, has been launched by Springer Nature. The company says the service has been developed in response to the extensive and rapid increase in published research which makes it difficult for researchers to keep up to date with developments in their specific fields.  

Facet Publishing has released Altmetrics: A Practical Guide for Librarians, Researchers and Academics, edited by Andy Tattersall.

As the industry sees a shift in the way users search for content, librarians are in a unique position to influence the discovery process. The challenge is to make the content procured both searchable and accessible, so librarians are looking to content providers for help with discovery.
