EBSCO’s NoveList Releases Book Index with Reviews
EBSCO Publishing's NoveList team, in association with Baker & Taylor, announced the release of Book Index with Reviews (BIR). According to the announcement, this Web resource gives library staff a powerful new tool to engage their most important users: book readers.With BIR, readers and librarians will experience an intuitive, user-friendly interface that delivers the same flexible searching power as the EBSCOhost search engine. This searching power allows users to effectively mine the content of more than 800,000 fully searchable, full-text reviews, as well as information on nearly 4 million book titles, powered by The Title Source from Baker & Taylor. Using a four-star system, based on input from thousands of libraries and retail outlets, Book Index with Reviews provides users with the means to distinguish popular, high-demand titles. According to the announcement, readers will no longer be stymied by a long list of books with no way to determine which ones they really want. Source: EBSCO Publishing
