 ===== Survey results =====  ===== Survey results ===== 
 +Over half of survey participants (59%) indicated that they used VuFind® and one-third indicated they used EBSCO Discovery Service. Just over one-quarter of participants (27%) indicated that they used multiple discovery platforms, with VuFind® and  EBSCO Discovery Service being the most commonly cited combination of platforms used. Sixteen percent of participants indicated using other platforms not listed in the list of answer options. Other platforms used included Aspen Discovery, Enterprise (SirsiDynix), SAGE (a locally developed alternative to Blacklight), and Encore. One user indicated that their organization did not use a discovery platform because it was deemed to be too expensive to do so.
