Encore Synergy QNL decided to cancel Research Pro subscription and move to Encore Synergy Encore Synergy integrates online article discovery with local catalog results and provides previews of the top articles from within the catalog results view. Encore IP address was sent to all QNL subscribed publishers

  12. Encore Synergy • Encore Synergy up to 30 sources and organized in 10 Portfolios. • Possible to purchase more than 30 sources • QNL added Proquest Central as a single source, so it allowed us remove some of the other ProQuest databases from consideration. We also added other ProQuest Subject Areas. • QNL has more than 54 databases so far. Work in progress to add more databases in portfolios • Arabic databases and non-mainstream databases are not available in Synergy - purchase new connectors
