NoveList Complete provides a comprehensive solution for enhancing readers' experiences including catalog enrichment, reading recommendations, increased circulation, and outreach resources. It offers recommendations for over 5 million titles along with explanations for why similar titles may appeal. Libraries report heavy usage of the reading recommendations within their catalogs and increased potential circulations from titles they already own. NoveList also provides newsletters, training, and support to help libraries promote their collections and reading guidance services.
