Research Platforms Roadmap

The Dashboard's Search History allows researchers to combine multiple searches with the Boolean Operators AND, OR, NOT. Searches in the Dashboard will display pertinent metadata, such as Filters, Search Modes & Expanders, Databases and Interface

For libraries with FOLIO Patron Empowerment, librarians can configure a custom note to display to their patrons in the place hold modal. It is now possible to configure the custom note in multiple languages (all supported languages).

For libraries with RTAC (Real Time Availability Check) enabled for the catalog items, librarians can now choose whether to display the due date of catalog items that are currently on loan. The item due date displays in RTAC by default if an item is on loan. Librarians can use Configuration in EBSCO Experience Manager to hide the due date (note that EBSCO-hosted FOLIO libraries also have the option to display the due date but not hide the due date time).

For libraries with FOLIO Patron Empowerment, patrons can now see the call number and volume information for items they have on hold or on loan. The call number and volume information now displays in My Dashboard for items that the patron has on loan or on hold, helping them to identify which volume they have on loan, especially if the title has multiple volumes, like in the case of serials.

Ability to limit to HTML Only, PDF Only, and eBooks Only. These limiters are available for EBSCOhost and EDS customers, and they can be configured for profiles in EBSCOadmin along with the other standard limiters.

Users will be able to search and access content from historical digital archives their institution subscribes to. In the New UI this content will be displayed in PDF format.

EBSCO has partnered with Elsevier to provide integrated Times Cited data on EBSCO Discovery Service for customers on the new user interface who are subscribed to the Elsevier Scopus® database. This integration allows librarians to configure Scopus access citation counts and links to the Scopus platform for users to view additional metadata for a given citation result set.

Personalized users can add up to 50 records at a time to a Project of their choice, whether existing or new, directly from the results page

Records on the results page in EBSCO Discovery Service and EBSCOhost will be numbered to make navigating results simpler and more intuitive. Users will also be able to select the number of results they see before the "See More Results" button appears. The default view will remain as 10 records, with options to view up to 50 records.
