Summon
• Summon is a new product which is an upgrade of a product we have (Multisearch)
• It allows users to search the library catalogue, online databases and journals in one search.
• It will be soft launched in October 2010 and we hope to launch it more publicly in January 2011.
• It will appear on the Learning Resources page shortly.
• Multisearch will remain there too for the near future.

• We don’t have a working product at the moment but if you wish to have a look at how it has been used in another University Library you may look at Huddersfield University’s version.
