Dear all,
We're pleased to announce the launch of the new Jisc Library Hub services: Discover, Compare and Cataloguing.
From today, the Compare collection management service: https://compare.libraryhub.jisc.ac.uk will take over from its predecessor CCM Tools and will start providing libraries with the ability to do collection analysis using a fresh new interface across the merged catalogues of 110 UK academic and specialist libraries – with more libraries to be added in the next few months.
Today also see the launch of:
*Discover: https://discover.libraryhub.jisc.ac.uk
Discover isn’t just a replacement for Copac; we are also retiring the SUNCAT service and integrating serials functionality into the new system. Since 2003, users have had to navigate two different Jisc systems to find full coverage of books and journals but now we have brought the data together and made it searchable in one easy to use service. We would like to take this opportunity to thank our colleagues at EDINA for working with us to make this service transition possible; and for their hard work and dedication over the years providing SUNCAT to the library community.
* Cataloguing: shared cataloguing service: https://cataloguing.libraryhub.jisc.ac.uk (continuing to run in parallel with the RLUK database for the next few months)
Please see our blog post for more details:

Please let your colleagues and library users know about these changes. If you would like free materials to help you publicise the service transition from Copac to Discover you can downloads PDFs of leaflets and posters, and order print copies - please see our the Discover About page for details: https://discover.libraryhub.jisc.ac.uk/about/.
Redirects will be in place from the retired services. If you have any questions, please contact us [log in to unmask], stating that your enquiry is for the Library Hub team.
Best wishes,
Discover, Compare and Cataloguing team
