The University of Southern Indiana selects TIND Digital Archive to host their digital collections

Oslo, Norway -- March 14, 2024. The University of Southern Indiana has selected TIND DA, adding their third TIND product in three years. TIND DA will be integrated into their existing TIND ILS and TIND IR install, further improving discoverability and accessibility to their collections. "Moving our ILS, IR, and DA to a single platform makes perfect sense for both library operations and for the end users.", says Becca Neel, Associate Director for Resource Management & UX. USI will migrate from CONTENTdm.

"I'm excited to start using improved tools to deliver digital archive materials to our users and community. I was impressed with how easy it was to pick up using TIND systems, and I am sure TIND DA will be equally user-friendly," said Jennifer Greene, university archivist at David L. Rice Library.

USI's growing partnership with TIND is a testament to TIND's platform robustness and user-friendly interface. Consolidating their IR, ILS, and DA in a unified platform promises to increase discoverability, boost staff productivity, and offer an improved user experience across their various library collections:

"This will be our third TIND migration in about as many years, so it's safe to say TIND's infrastructure complements both where we are now and where we are headed in terms of streamlining resource acquisitions, maintenance, and access. In short, moving our ILS, IR, and DA to a single platform makes perfect sense for both library operations and for the end user." - Becca Neel, Associate Director for Resource Management & User Experience
