Research Overview

We’re excited to introduce the new Research Overview feature, which provides a concise, AI-generated summary of your search topic directly within the results page. The overview extracts the most relevant information from the top search results based on your query. It always includes references, allowing users to verify the information and explore sources with confidence.
The overview appears unobtrusively, and users can expand it to read the full summary when needed.

Statistics

Holdings Overlap Tool

We’re excited to introduce the new Holdings Analytics Overlap Tool, designed to help libraries better understand and optimize their collections. This tool allows you to analyze overlap between collections at both a high-level summary and a detailed, title-by-title view.

With clear visualizations and interactive reports, you can easily identify complete overlap, partial overlap, and unique titles across collections. Detailed overlap results include coverage timelines, overlap percentages, and exportable title-level data for deeper analysis.
image
The tool supports comparisons between subscribed collections, non-subscribed Knowledgebase collections, your entire holdings, and even custom or a-la-carte collections uploaded via Excel. All reports can be saved and exported for further review and sharing.
Resolver statistics now include a new “Open Access Available” indicator, giving librarians clearer insight into how often Open Access options were available during resolver requests.
This column counts how many resolver requests included at least one Open Access link, regardless of which link the user ultimately selected. An Open Access link being available does not imply that it was used, users may still have accessed full text via subscription-based services.
This metric helps institutions understand the presence of Open Access alongside licensed access.
Data for this metric is collected starting from February 1, 2026, and the column appears automatically in Resolver reports for date ranges that include this date.
We’ve introduced several powerful AI enhancements to help users move faster from question to insight, reducing manual steps and making advanced functionality more accessible.
Ask & Extract
The new Ask & Extract capability allows users to define their own data points and extract them directly from the abstracts of selected publications. Instead of relying only on predefined metrics, users can now ask questions such as study considerations, limitations, or specific characteristics, and receive structured results in a table.
AI Assistance for Advanced Search
For most searches, AI-powered search is the fastest and most effective way to get results, simply describe what you’re looking for in natural language and let the AI do the heavy lifting.
That said, some research scenarios require highly specific, carefully constructed Boolean queries. To support these advanced use cases, we’ve introduced AI Assisted Query, located at the top of the Advanced Search page, directly above the traditional Query Builder.
This feature translates natural language requests into structured Boolean queries, providing a strong starting point that users can review, refine, and adjust using the existing Boolean tools. It combines the ease of AI with the precision of manual query building.
AI Assistance for Citation Matcher
Citation matching is now faster and simpler with a new single-textbox AI Citation Matcher. Users can paste a full citation, no matter the format, and the AI will parse it automatically. There’s no longer a need to split citations into separate fields.
The Library eResources Favorites widget has been completely redesigned to make managing favorites faster and more intuitive. Previously, the widget was view-only—adding, reordering, renaming, or removing favorites required navigating to separate pages.
Now, everything can be done directly within the widget. Users can add new journals, books, and databases, remove items, and manage their favorites without leaving the page. This experience makes it easier for patrons to personalize their access to library resources.

We’ve added a new Cite & Export action link directly to each Discover search result, making it easier than ever to reference and reuse content. Patrons can now generate citations and export them to popular reference managers, such as EndNote, RefWorks, Mendeley, Zotero, Word, or PDF, without opening the full record.
image
Administrators can enable this feature from Admin Panel > Discover > Settings > Results by adding the Cite action link.
We’re excited to introduce a new Preview feature in the Repository Record Editor. Editors can now preview records, whether in draft or containing unsaved changes, without publishing or saving them. This allows you to validate layout, content, and formatting before anything goes live.
Access the new Preview option from the editor’s three-dot menu. The record will open in a new tab showing a simulated published view, along with a clear banner indicating that you are viewing an unpublished preview.
