Undoubtedly, the recent news of Baker and Taylor’s closure has created unexpected challenges and uncertainty for many libraries. While we don’t have full clarity on the future of Content Café, we want to let you know that you can turn to Clarivate to quickly migrate to one of two reliable alternative solutions.
Sign on for Syndetics
Continue to provide the add-on services your patrons expect with Syndetics. This all-in-one catalog enrichment solution sources data from LibraryThing and Bowker Books in Print. For the same price as your Content Café add-on services, Clarivate will implement a switch to Syndetics, and in most cases, exactly match the same elements you receive through Content Café: cover images, summaries, table of contents, reviews and more.
- Syndetics will assume responsibility for the portion of your existing Content Café contract that has already been prepaid
- Syndetics will match the pricing structure of your existing Content Café agreement
- We will match the elements you currently receive from Content Café, plus all professional reviews
- We will offer a simple turnkey solution that does not disrupt the patron experience
