- Description
- Sources Sought Full Text Product Description NoveList helps readers discover books they want to read and connects them to library collections. Currently, the NoveList Plus database contains information on 500,000+ popular fiction and readable nonfiction titles for all ages. The titles included in NoveList are specifically selected to represent typical public library collections; thus, all titles included in NoveList are relevant and highly curated. NoveList K-8 Plus is frequently used in children's spaces. This interface provides a trusted source of information audience curated specifically for younger readers. It helps kids find books that are just right for their reading level and interests. These services are provided by a customizable user interface. All databases are searchable with a variety of limiters to expedite the search process including searching by subject, author, and publication. Product characteristics an equal item must meet to be considered: * Comprehensive, curated readers' advisory information designed specifically for libraries and readers. * A taxonomy (appeal terms) to describe the mood and feel of books in a way that readers understand using highly-curated expert metadata; * Handwritten read-alike recommendations, which are written and signed by book experts. * Includes book review sources - pulling in both professionals reviews (from Booklist, Kirkus, Library Journal, Publisher's Weekly, School Library Journal) as well as from readers (from Goodreads). * Editorial content written by librarians including: book discussion guides, thematic book lists, author read-alikes, genre outlines, and 'best practices' articles on readers' advisory. * All of the recommendations and content from the service is integrated into the library catalog, where it is easy for patrons to find. This can mean the difference between a reader leaving empty-handed, or discovering a next read that they will love. * Display- in real time - whether one of the recommended titles is available right now in the library and the formats (print, ebook, audio, etc) available.
