SirsiDynix have announced a major new release of their discovery platform, Enterprise 4.1, now available for Horizon. Enterprise 4.1 can now be installed locally on a library server, in the past it was a hosted-only service.
Also pricing has been slashed on Enterprise 4.1 making it much more affordable for libraries in this economic climate - contact Interleaf Technology for details
Enterprise 4.1 is the new discovery platform for SirsiDynix for Symphony and Horizon databases. The discovery platform is an enhanced web catalogue that offers searching of other resources as well as the libary database.
The new version of Enterprise has many great new features and can be viewed on the SirsiDynix demo site here. Feel free to try out the demo. Enterprise 4.1 is supported by Symphony and Horizon version 7.5.
