We are pleased to announce new versions of the four NoveList interfaces that are modern, accessible and mobile friendly. The new NoveList experience will offer reading inspiration via trusted reading recommendations, curated book lists, and more.
EBSCO eBooks users now have access to the following new functionality to align with requirements of the European Accessibility Act: accessibility metadata displayed for every EBSCO eBook in the new UI; an EPUB limiter for eBooks in new UI; line, word, and character spacing controls for EPUB formatted eBooks; text-to-speech functionality for PDF and EPUB formatted eBooks; and a user-facing remediation request form for EBSCO full text content to request an alternate format.
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.
