Baker & Taylor Rolls Out Axis 360 Upgrades
Baker & Taylor released upgrades to its Axis 360 digital media circulation platform that are designed to enhance its user experience and visual appeal, as well as update its site administration and collection management tools.Key upgrades include more display and navigation flexibility for a library’s collection via the Magic Wall, the online showcase for a library’s collection; design flexibility that allows libraries to create and manage Magic Wall presentations; enhanced browse-by-subject options that now have less text; and a streamlined administration interface with new user management options, reports, alerts, and other tools. “[T]he improvements to Axis 360 come from listening closely to our library partners,” according to George Coe, Baker & Taylor’s CEO and president. The company held focus group meetings where library customers could provide feedback and requests for upgrades. “Axis 360 users now have an even more engaging and inviting tool to discover digital materials, and libraries have additional control over their library users’ experience and added information to be effective managers of their digital collections,” says Coe.
