Since the beginning of the year Ex Libris have offered more and more training courses in its new Learning Center (http://learn.exlibrisgroup.com/) with many interactive sessions – from basic functionality to new developments of its products. Access to the Learning Center is available to all Ex Libris customers as a subscription service.
After discussions with the IGeLU Steering committee Ex Libris agreed to enable licence sharing within one customer institution. Until now institutions could purchase only a personal (“named”) user licence for each staff member that would be accessing the Learning Center. From now on Ex Libris offers, alternatively, a general institutional login that can be used within the institution that purchased the licence.
However, it is important to note that institutions that opt for an institutional login will not be able to see individual use history and knowledge review scores that gauge the capabilities of specific staff members; nor will they be able to benefit from certification exams which will soon be featured on the Center.
