Mike has been working in technology for more than 16 years, with 13 of those years in the library industry. He was an early team member of ProQuest’s Summon and Intota products, and an original contributor for Plum Analytics in the research analytics and engagement space.
For the past five years at EBSCO, he has worked with EBSCO’s SaaS (native and partner) services and currently focuses on EBSCO’s support of FOLIO, an Open Source community driven LSP. Consistent across all his roles, Mike has had the challenge to work with “new to market” services: Summon was the first single, centrally-indexed discovery tool to market; Plum Analytics was the first robust research impact measurement tool to include not just social media metrics, but usage, citation, news impacts, and more; and FOLIO is the first microservices ILS platform in the library industry.
