The National Library of Finland Selects Primo and Primo Central from Ex Libris for Nationwide Use

Primo will provide Finland's libraries, museums, research institutes and archives with a unified gateway to a wealth of scholarly and cultural resources

Ex Libris® Group, a world leader in the provision of library automation solutions, is pleased to announce that the National Library of Finland has chosen the Primo® discovery and delivery solution and the Primo Central mega-index of scholarly materials, to provide a unified interface for the discovery and delivery of the entire country's collections and electronic resources.  

Representing the full spectrum of museums, academic and public libraries, research institutes and archives, the National Library of Finland chose Primo as the public interface from which users can access digital content and local collections throughout the country. Following a thorough competitive tender process, Primo was ultimately the only solution that met all of the network's extensive requirements for comprehensive search technology and impartial access to scholarly global content.  

Kristiina Hormia-Poutanen, deputy national librarian at the National Library of Finland, commented: "A central element of the National Digital Library project is the public interface-enabling libraries, museums and archives to make the information resources under their guardianship easily accessible to the end user and to provide access to library services, via a single point of access. Primo's core characteristics were key factors in this important decision: its open architecture, scalability, consortia features, seamless integration with administrative systems from different sectors, and multi-lingual capabilities. We were also impressed by Primo's ability to integrate numerous library services into the Primo interface, and the quality of resources made available through Primo Central."  

"It is a great honor that the National Digital Library project has selected Primo as its unified discovery platform for the extensive resources of the country's libraries, museums and archives," commented Marc Daubach, corporate VP and general manager of Ex Libris Europe. "The rich functionality of Primo version 3 was a perfect match for the extensive requirements of the project's member institutions. We are delighted that a number of institutions from all three sectors-museums, libraries and archives-will begin their implementation of Primo and Primo Central this month."
