[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Evergreen libraries using/testing Syndetics Unbound?

Well, at least their sales message is consistent! 

FWIW, because maybe they use the same title for their mock-up?, this is a link to our current catalog for Raven Boys - http://evergreen.owwl.org/eg/opac/record/442294. 

The Syndetics Classic content we subscribe to displays under the "Summaries and more" tab. It's OK, but not as nice as the fancy Unbound stuff. Although I do notice that we, although we are apparently paying for it, do not have the Professional Reviews... I wonder if that is related to the display issues Terran found. 

Our Novelist content displays under the "Reviews, Series & Suggest Reads" tab. We are kind of assuming that Unbound content would function similarly. 

Our main concern is the configuration and display of cover images. We are using the Syndetics Classic API to manage that, and worry that the way Evergreen processes cover images will not play nicely with whatever process Unbound uses.
