“As part of NC LIVE’s agreement with ProQuest, NC LIVE member libraries have access to their own instance of Summon. Summon is a discovery service that pulls together all of your library’s collections – including electronic content licensed by NC LIVE, electronic content you license on your own, as well as all of the physical collections represented in your library catalog – into one set of search results. Summon meets the expectations of today’s users by providing your patrons a Google-like search of all your library’s collections.” (NCLIVE 5/2024)
