NoveList Select is now available in the latest versions of EBSCO Discovery Service (EDS) and EBSCOhost, enhancing these interfaces with detailed book recommendations, series titles in reading order, and other helpful information from NoveList to assist both library staff and users in finding great next reads with expertly curated read-alikes.
Library administrators will be able to configure and use their institution's SAML Single Sign-On (such as OpenAthens, MS Entra, or Shibboleth) for access to EBSCO Experience Manager. This work will allow for more secure, standard authentication and role-based access control for EEM, an interface where product configuration is increasingly homed. Administrators can easily connect to their SAML Identity Provider using the setup wizard, and granularly manage permissions for administrative access.
Links to the following authorities are now available on the left-hand navigation pane of EDS, EBSCOhost, and Explora profiles when the relevant databases are enabled:
Publications authority
Subjects authority
Atla Scripture Search
CINAHL Headings
MEDLINE -- MeSH 2024
The results page now lists the selected search mode under “All Filters.” The search mode can be changed on the Advanced Search under “Search Options”. It also displays any selected Search Expanders. For more convenient refinement, a link back to “Advanced Search” is now directly available in the “All Filters” panel.
“My Dashboard” is now collapsed by default on Explora. Users can click on the “My Dashboard” header to expand it. After expanding this menu, it will remain expanded as users navigate through the interface. Users can also collapse it again by clicking on the “My Dashboard” header, and it will remain collapsed until expanded again.
The Credo Reference integration is now updated to use Credo’s New API. Additionally, it has moved to the top of the EDS results page.
The EDS search box builder is now updated to generate URLs for the New UI. It is integrated into the new EEM search box builder module and has added functionality. These changes will not affect existing EDS search boxes.
Enhance New Publication Finder navigation so that Search home (now call Search Publications), Browse Databases and Browse Subjects become tabs above the search box. The 'Search Publications' tab name will be customizable via EBSCO Experience Manager Configuration
