The Library recently purchased and implemented the Pivot system from Ex Libris / ProQuest, and we are pleased to announce that users may now sign in using their UT Southwestern username and password.

Pivot – formerly known as Community of Science (COS) – provides a powerful search interface to an up-to-date and comprehensive funding opportunities database. You can set alerts, share opportunities, and get funding recommendations.

In addition to the critical purpose of finding funding, Pivot has several other useful features:

• Locate potential collaborators in your specific field.
• Discover conferences and calls for papers of interest.
• Determine which funders are most promising for your needs.

The Library has created a guide to help you get started with Pivot. You can also schedule one-on-one or group training.

If locating funding is important to your work, you will likely find Pivot to be an invaluable tool. Please give it a test “drive” today.
