Summon integration at Florida State University Libraries

StackMap has been mapping items at Florida State University’s Strozier and Dirac libraries for a number of years now. This year, FSU added Summon as the library’s primary discovery interface. Now that StackMap has integrated with Summon, users not only see StackMap’s “Floor map” buttons in the traditional catalog, but also in the Summon search results page.

Instead of having to click on the title to go to the item’s individual record page within the catalog, the user is able to see the item’s location on a map directly from the search results page.

Together, Summon and StackMap are helping patrons locate resources with even more ease and efficiency.
