ProQuest Integrates OASIS and Alma for Simplified Print Book Orders
ProQuest’s OASIS (Online Acquisitions and Selection Information System) platform is now integrated with the Ex Libris Alma library services platform. Alma customers can use OASIS to search, check prices, and order from a selection of 38 million print books from directly within the Alma interface. According to the press release, “This ‘Check Availability and Pricing’ API is the latest step in the integration of OASIS and Alma, reflecting ProQuest’s ongoing commitment to improve library workflows after the company’s acquisition of Ex Libris in 2015.”Additionally, “ProQuest also recently developed a ‘Real-Time Acquisition’ API, a connection between OASIS and Alma primarily designed for selections and acquisitions librarians who often work in OASIS. This API instantly sends orders to Alma once an order is placed in OASIS.” For more information, read the press release.
