We just switched to Discover and were under the impression that Syndetics Unbound would be even better than Syndetics, which is what we had with BiblioCommons. Now we know that summaries are not included which is very problematic for our customers and staff. We have been cataloging for many years without adding summaries if the record did not have one because we knew Syndetics provided them and we had to save time where we could. Going back to add summaries to thousands of records is just not something we have the capacity to do. We are getting a lot of complaints about missing summaries. I really don't understand why this is not already included for Discover.
