The Darrell Krueger Library migrated to a new system software to search for sources called Alma/Primo VE. At our library, it is still be called OneSearch. It allows you to search for print and digital content as a single search, rather than having to access different databases and systems. It also has an account feature that allows you to save lists of items, manage your renewals, and request items through interlibrary loan (ILL).
The new software incorporates many library work functions into one application, instead of spreading those functions across two or three applications that don’t inter-operate. Also, the old system was built to support print books and many collections have changed to include electronic resources. This system is used at all the libraries in Minnesota State.
