Q1 2025 Enhancements

Alibris Integration

What's new	Highlights	Impact
Rialto users in the UK will have the option to order out-of-print books through Alibris within Rialto.	Works that have unavailable print offerings from Rialto will now display Alibris offerings when in stock with Alibris. Users will be able to order titles through the standard order workflow in Rialto. Titles will ship directly from the Alibris seller.	When opted in, Rialto users will have the ability to purchase a wide variety of out-of-print titles provided via Alibris. This saves staff an extra step, no longer having to search elsewhere outside the Rialto workflow for their content.

Subscriptions Page

What's new	Highlights	Impact
A new page in Rialto "Ebook Central Subscriptions" listing the library’s active Ebook Central subscriptions, and others that are available for activation.	A list of the most popular subscriptions available from Ebook Central that are available for activation. For each active subscription, Rialto will display: The entity that owns the subscription the library has access to (the university and/or consortium) Start and end dates Badging on offers in the marketplace that indicate the title is held as part of a subscription with the name and dates exposed on hover.	Easy access to subscription information to better inform selection decisions.

Predicted to be Treated

What's new	Highlights	Impact
A new field within the query builder, “Predicted to be Treated,” will be available for increasing the scope of quality content for searches and profiles.	New query builder field "Predicted to be Treated." Users can select how wide of a range they would like to cast – from an additional fifty thousand titles to three hundred and fifty thousand. Generates a list of titles that would qualify to be treated based on typical treatment values such as publisher, classification, award winning, highly reviewed, etc.	Previously, users were only able to include Treated titles in their plans and feeds, which may have missed potential quality titles that had not yet been treated. Now, users can expand their results by including titles that are likely to be treated in the future.

Updated VPAT

What's new	Highlights	Impact
New accessibility audit with updated VPAT documentation for 2025.	Once the audit process is complete, a new VPAT document will be published on the Rialto accessibility webpage in the Knowledge Center.	At ProQuest, part of Clarivate, we make every effort to ensure that our platforms—including Rialto—can be used by everyone. Rialto is continually designed and developed to meet Level AA of the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1) and Section 508 of the US Rehabilitation Act for features and functions.

Q2 2025 Enhancements

Export Improvements

What's new	Highlights	Impact
Expanded metadata on exports for all Rialto pages and an improved export process.	Expanding and standardizing title metadata included on all reports, and adding additional fields from the user interface display where applicable. Turning the export into a job that runs outside of the page, so users don't have to wait for their report to complete before navigating away from a page.	Staff will have more metadata fields available to them when exporting Rialto pages, helping them work offline.

Reading List in Query Builder

What's new	Highlights	Impact
A field will be added to the Query Builder for titles on active and future reading lists.	New query builder value for "Leganto Reading List" that will allow for bulk searching of items in a reading list within Rialto. Users can refine their searches by citation tags. Purchases will link to the citation so that: Users can track the order progress from Alma pages Records link to the correct citation	Users will be able to refine searches and enhance their profiles to capture titles that are part of active courses in Leganto, enabling the library to fulfill course requirements with greater ease.

Purchasing Support for Currencies Swedish Krona and Norwegian Krone

What's new	Highlights	Impact
Rialto will support ordering in additional currencies: the Swedish Krona and Norwegian Krone.	The new currencies will display for the library across all Rialto pages – search results, lists, checkout pages, etc. The Swedish Krona and Norwegian Krone join a list of several currencies supported by Rialto: USD, CAD, GBP, EUR, and AUD.	Libraries in Sweden and Norway can now place Rialto orders in their native currency for ease of purchasing and invoicing.
