Visual rebranding of 平特五不中 Library鈥檚 WorldCat Discovery Catalogue going live July 24, 2020
As you may know, 平特五不中 Library has partnered with聽the聽Bureau de coop茅ration interuniversitaire聽(BCI) and a coalition of 17 other Quebec universities to implement a unified catalogue that rolled out on July 8, 2020. Learn more聽here.
Visual rebranding is聽the next step towards the implementation of聽this shared catalogue and the new look will go live on Friday, July 24, 2020. There will be no changes to functionality, only the branding will be slightly different.聽The image here shows the previous interface on the left and the rebranded version on the right.
The rebranding will feature the newly-designed聽Sofia聽logo, which is what the discovery tool is called. The name聽was聽chosen by BCI鈥檚 library subcommittee because聽it's the Greek word meaning "wise" and is a good metaphor for聽academic libraries, which act as a gateway to wisdom.聽Sofia聽also recalls the human dimension of libraries, and is easy to pronounce in French, English, and several other languages, reflecting the diversity of Quebec鈥檚 academic community.聽
