For librarians who need a simple and easy way to show their users what resources they can access, MyAthens is a library-owned information portal that provides a user-friendly starting point for research.
– Enables librarians to offer a high-quality digital experience for patrons, while saving library staff time to focus on what matters most.
– A single place for library patrons to see what content is available to them without needing to configure or manage any links outside of OpenAthens.
– Re-designed to create a simple and intuitive user experience that is accessible for all audiences on all devices.
Lucy Roper has been a part of the team at UCEM for the past ten years, and legacy MyAthens integration was already present when she started. She recently spoke to us about her experiences with the platform upgrade to MyAthens Plus.
