Clarivate, which has provided Web of Science, acquired ProQuest and Ex Libris in 2021 and is developing solutions for university libraries with three values: Drive research excellence, increase student achievement and maximize the return on your library investments. They have many expectations from university libraries, including large badgets for electronic resources, contributions to open science, and research support. We present the challenges surrounding academic libraries and provide an overview of Clarivate's solutions, including the vast, neutral, high-quality content of the Web of Science and ProQuest, and the cutting-edge technology of Library Service Platform (LSP), Ex Libris Alma. We will discuss what direction university libraries should take.
