Libraries using Rialto will soon gain access to approximately 500,000 additional titles over the next few months through a new PubDirect partnership with Paradigm Publishing Services that will link titles on Paradigm’s reference-global.com platform to the Rialto marketplace. The agreement will bring university press publications, professional content, and titles from small and independent publishers into Rialto.
The addition includes academic titles, professional titles, and titles from small and independent publishers available through Paradigm’s relationship with Bookwire. For libraries, it means a larger pool of content to select from without leaving the workflows they already use in Rialto. For Paradigm’s publishing partners, the partnership increases the library’s network, visibility, and potential commercial opportunities.
“University press publications play a critical role in supporting research and academic excellence. By integrating Paradigm’s extensive catalog with Rialto, we are expanding access to trusted scholarly content while enabling libraries to discover, evaluate, and acquire it through the workflows they already rely on. This partnership gives libraries greater choice and flexibility when developing collections aligned with their institutional goals.” – Judith Fraenkel, Director of Product Management, Clarivate
“Our agreement with Clarivate and integration with Rialto opens up new opportunities for libraries to acquire the content they need, support small publishers with cost-effective and flexible purchasing options, and provide researchers seamless access on trusted scholarly platform that brings together resources from around the world.” – Steve Fallon, Managing Director of Paradigm Publishing Services.
Stay tuned for future announcements on the availability of Paradigm content in Rialto and the expanded opportunities this partnership will bring to libraries and publishers alike.
