The Foundation for 360 E-Discovery and E-Management Services Control your collection and provide easy access to your e-resources

360 Core is the foundation for your access, management, and assessment services

360 Core is the starting point for accessing and controlling your e-resource collection and the foundation for all 360 E-Discovery and E-Management services. The integrated 360 services enable you to improve workflows and reduce workloads. Instead of wrangling data and duplicating processes, you can spend your time providing better access, making more informed decisions, and reducing costs.

360 Core delivers accurate and consistent tools for discovery, access, management, and assessment because it is powered by Serials Solutions KnowledgeWorks, the authoritative e-resource knowledgebase. Our proprietary data collection and standardization process delivers the most accurate holdings data and best available URLs to 360 Core. You also can add your library’s local holdings, including print and microform, to give your patrons a single comprehensive directory of resources at your institution.

360 Core provides features and functionality for both accessing and managing e-resources at your library.

Provide easy access to your e-journal collection

360 Core provides a single point of entry to all of your e-resources. The A-to-Z title list, e-resource portal, Journal Linker, title searching, and subject browsing features provide a variety of options for access, all from Web pages that are branded to match the look and feel of your library’s Web site.

Control your collection

360 Core helps simplify e-resource management tasks using sophisticated Web-based tools. It’s easy to view and add journals to your collection, evaluate your holdings, and reduce acquisition costs.

The Overlap Analysis tool helps you quickly identify duplicated journals and do “what if” scenarios prior to purchasing resources. The e-catalog lets you browse journal and database information throughout KnowledgeWorks. You also can obtain detailed usage statistics to identify which databases and journals patrons use most. 360 Core compiles click-through usage data at the title, database, and provider levels. This data can be combined with vendor usage data when using Serials Solutions 360 Counter.
