At the end of August we will be releasing the Prism 3 mobile device interface to demo. It will then be released to live in mid-September. This new feature has been built specifically in the mobile device context – only a small screen area, and a need for immediate and quick answers.

Some of the front end features that will benefit users include touch-swipe paging and a home screen icon, allowing the mobile interface to be more app-like. The URL for your catalogue will also remain the same; Prism 3 will detect the device being used and automatically render in the mobile interface. Some new web browser features, including caching pre-loaded searches and use of HTML5, allow the interface to be much quicker and responsive for the user.

Our senior developer on Prism 3, Matt Machell, explains these and other features in more detail in this recording of the latest Prism 3 mobile interface webinar. To get this feature enabled on your catalogue when it goes into demo, please raise a support case.

Following a review of the data suppliers earlier this year, a new deal has been agreed with BDS to provide Prism users with extended enrichments. This will mean that Prism will provide the experience that library users have come to expect from today’s digital environment, as well as giving you best value and choice from your Prism subscription.

We held a webinar this week to explain how customers can benefit from these new enrichments and we included a demonstration of how the new book jackets are displayed in Prism searches. You can view a video of the webinar here.

Following the announcement of our deal with BDS to extend and enhance enrichments in Prism, we will be holding a webinar to discuss this further. In the webinar we will provide an overview of the new data available, explain how you can get the data, and will be available to answer any questions that you have.

The beta tests of the new Marcgrab for Prism 3 are going well and it won’t be long before we start a roll-out programme for all Prism 3 customers. Marcgrab is a re-write of Marcgrabber and has been developed to make it easier for us to  make amendments now and in the future. It will also enable searches for recently added items in Prism 3 and also multi-volume parent/child record processing. Crucially, it will also enable the Semantic Data Model.

We ran a webinar to introduce Marcgrab on Monday 9^th May. We talked about what Marcgrab is, why it has been re-written, the prerequisites required for installation, the benefits that it will bring to your system, an overview of the process,  the steps involved in  the implementation and how you can request it to be installed.  You can watch the video here.
