Innovative's Vega Discover Implements Curated Showcases for Library Materials
Innovative’s Vega Discover tool “now offers library staff the ability to create curated showcases. Showcases display a visual carousel of items to the library’s specifications and will automatically appear throughout the Vega Discover interface when relevant, helping libraries promote their entire catalog of items and encouraging virtual exploration.”Vega’s use of linked data means that showcases of resources are “directly related to the source topic or resource, not just loosely connected by a broad keyword.” To replicate the experience of browsing library shelves, libraries can customize the showcases to relate to their individual communities (by featuring local authors, town history, etc.) and to promote little-known items. For more information, read the press release.
