Prism 3 Update

It’s been a few months since my last update and a lot has been happening within the Talis Prism 3 world during that time. We have seen several releases of Prism 3 as part of the work we are doing on the Semantic Data Model, as well as the launch of Talis Library Ideas and the rollout of the Admin Console for Prism 3. We also made available the option to customers to run Prism 3 on their own URL.

I have been busy working with many of our customers during the past three months helping them to launch Prism 3, which has resulted in a number of customers launching Prism 3 either in parallel to Prism 2 or as their sole new catalogue.

worcs The recent launches of Prism 3 has resulted in over 30 customers who are now running Prism 3 as a live catalogue. These include Worcestershire Libraries (left) who have implemented the Google Translate service on their catalogue, East Renfrewshire Council who have used JUICE to add a Library Location extension on the item details page and University of Roehampton (below) who have launched at the start of the new term. Earlier this week we saw Cornwall Council launch their catalogue taking the total number of live instances of Prism 3 to 32.

We have also seen the University of Manchester and University of Sunderland launch Prism 3 with their own hostname.roehampton

With over 30 customers running Prism 3, we are now seeing some very interesting statistical information in Google Analytics. We have been able to aggregate this data in order to monitor areas such as performance and searching. For example in the past 7 days we have see over 330k visits to Prism 3 from 137 countries which resulted in over 1.2 million page views.
