How it works

From a syllabus to a curated course collection

Start with a single course, a department, or a broader group of courses. WyderNet turns course requirements into an actionable library workflow.

1

Reads the course materials

WyderNet analyzes syllabi, assignments, and reading lists to identify required, recommended, and supplementary resources.

2

Matches your holdings

Each resource is checked against your library’s holdings and subscriptions, showing what is available, what may require review, and what is missing.

3

Closes gaps and connects students

Your library can review the results, add recommendations, address missing materials, and publish a curated course collection for students and faculty.

The platform

What WyderNet provides

Tools that help libraries connect students with course materials while getting more value from the collections they already have.

Make what you already own count

Connect assigned readings with the holdings and subscriptions your library already pays for, helping students discover and use available resources.

Add your library’s expertise

Librarians can add recommended resources, preferred editions, alternatives, and guidance. Your expertise shapes every course collection.

Identify and address collection gaps

See which assigned materials are unavailable and evaluate open-access, interlibrary-loan, and purchase options before students need them.

Understand course-level use

See how students engage with course resources so you can demonstrate the collection’s impact and make better-informed decisions.

Give every course a curated destination

Publish a course collection that brings assigned materials, library recommendations, access options, and librarian guidance together in one place for students and faculty.

Works with your stack
