This presentation was recorded live at ALA Midwinter 2009.
bX® is an exciting new service from Ex Libris that provides recommendations for scholarly articles, thereby helping your users discover items of potential interest from a growing information universe. bX leverages the usage information gathered by link resolvers (such as SFX). Since link resolvers record article usage patterns across multiple resources of a digital library, the resolvers’ logs are highly representative of the activities and preferences of the population served by the link resolver. The federation of usage logs across multiple institutions represents a larger and more global user community, and enables the generation of a range of interesting services. This session will introduce you to the bX service, describe the closed beta test with 17 research libraries around the world, and show you how you will soon be able to sign up for this service.
