The Rialto CERV enhancement process for 2026 is underway! As of the February 22 deadline, there were 12 new enhancement submissions to the AHA portal. The working group enhancement team is currently reviewing the submissions and will reach out to submitters if any clarifications are needed. Once appropriate members of the ELUNA and IGeLU steering committees have reviewed the ballot, voting should open for all Rialto acquisitions customers on Tuesday, April 14 (11:59 GMT). The ballot will remain available until April 28 (11:59 GMT).
In other Rialto news, customers interested in the new Browns/VLebooks are now able to begin ordering. Rialto customers who have not yet set up an account with Browns/VLe can request to do so via the Rialto ebook profile form. Once submitted Rialto customer support will need to know the customer’s VLebook account number, and ordering can commence.
Finally, the Rialto Working Group is looking forward to seeing fellow customers at the upcoming ELUNA conference. A working group presentation will take place Wednesday, April 29 from 4:15 to 5 p.m. Everyone is welcome to attend. The session will provide information about the new enhancement submissions, a summarization of work with Rialto leadership, a discussion of the group’s efforts to solidify the working group’s charter/terms-of-reference, and an open Q&A.
