2. Upcoming A-Z Updates with Community Features
We made it easier to manage A-Z assets, added new features (internal notes, database reviews, hide databases, create popular lists, etc.), and fixed accessibility issues!
We also created something that is going to blow.you.away. A-Z Databases Community!
(Included with LibGuides CMS)
- Run peer comparisons on database holdings to identify gaps in subject coverage.
- See which databases are popular, best bets, etc., across the community.

When will the enhancements to A-Z list be available? (We cannot attend the advertised webinars as they are in the middle of the night for us.) Thanks
Hi Kirstie, we are targeting early August for the release of the new A-Z features. Also, we are going to record one of these Webinar Tours in this series and make it available for our worldwide client community. We’ll send an email to admins about it. Thanks for your excitement about the new features, I am confident you will find them very useful.
I’m very excited about the A-Z enhancements! That is going to be so great when it comes to helping us manage our resources!
Thanks Nichole, we’re super-excited about the new A-Z stuff as well. The community aspect will really benefit everyone in the community and like you said it will help manage local resources more efficiently. Let us know if any other suggestions and ideas pop up, we’re all ears. Thanks!
Hi- will a recording of this be made available soon? I wanted our blackboard folks to view it and we’re hoping to bring it live for fall semester. Thanks, sandy
Hi Sandy!
The video recording is available here: http://buzz.springshare.com/videohighlights/lti-az. The LTI covers the first 20min, or so, of the recording.
Let us know if you have any questions!
Best,
Talia
Thank you, Talia!
Hi, do you have an updated link for the recording? I watched it a while ago, but the link is broken or has changed.
