We spoke to Edyta Krol, Academic Support Librarian at the University of West London (UWL) to find out about their journey with Talis Aspire. Although the story begins with challenges, the team’s hard work now means they boast a 98% list coverage across all modules. In this post, we reflect back over the last few years and look forward to the plans for the future.
The University of West London purchased Talis Aspire back in 2012, looking to deliver better student experience and improved access to resources. Implementation was completed in just 4 weeks, however getting Talis Aspire off the ground proved difficult for the UWL team in the first few years. A library move and a team restructure meant the focus was drawn away from the project and academic adoption suffered. After reflecting on this and with time to dedicate to the project, the team began to rethink their strategy and looked for a new approach to ensure reading lists were available for students.
