Selection and Acquisition Rebuilt
ProQuest Rialto is a comprehensive academic marketplace, designed for today’s librarians to be a single integrated experience enabling evidence-based, data-driven decisions.
Rialto is built on the Ex Libris Higher-Ed cloud platform, creating a seamless and unified workflow from selection to acquisition. The marketplace offers a range of formats and acquisition models which can be sorted and ranked based on library preferences providing usage data to help librarians make the best purchase decisions.
Rialto has come in at the right time. Our acquisition staff find it very easy and have been using it for e-book ordering from early on...
