Add Kortext as an e-book provider
Please could content from Kortext (https://www.kortext.com/) be added to the KB?
They are an e-book provider - we currently have a collection of books from them that are only in Summon via a LSH and would love the user experience / discoverability for these books to be the same as that for other e-book providers.
Thank you!
