As Product Marketing Manager for Data Products at ProQuest, I handled marketing strategy and planning for popular library products such as Syndetics Unbound. Syndetics Unbound is an enrichment service that integrates seamlessly with a library's catalog to provide interactive exploration and increase circulation of a library's collection. Backed by comprehensive data from ProQuest and LibraryThing, Syndetics Unbound provides the highest quality enrichments and best coverage for retailers, publishers, public and academic libraries. In addition to marketing Syndetics Unbound, I also worked with five other products at ProQuest including Books in Print, Resources for College Libraries (RCL), Bowker Book Analysis System (BBAS), Data Sales, and Ulrich's.
