The new VIVA Faculty Textbook Portal is a catalog designed to assist VCCS faculty in finding and selecting open and affordable textbooks for their courses in one place. The Portal is part of a wide-scale Open and Affordable Initiative by VIVA to provide no-cost and barrier-free access to course curriculum resources for students and researchers. The Portal contains over 200,000 titles from VIVA’s shared library collections, open access textbooks, and ebooks available for VIVA to purchase on behalf of members throughout the state. Please note: The Portal is for faculty members at public institutions within the state of Virginia only.

Mergent Online is transitioning to a new platform called Market Atlas. Market Atlas will have a new URL but IP-based authentication remains the same. Institutions will be able to provide access to both platforms until Mergent Online sunsets on June 30, 2025. Apart from a new look and feel, there are some differences in content. Market Atlas provides access to additional ESG and economic data analysis tools and reports; however, at this time, supply chain data is only available on Mergent Online.
