Break up IBISWorld into sub-collections
The existing IBISWorld collection (IBISWorld Alma ID 6113915960000041 DBID 6EY) is for the entire platform, but many customers license only a subset of that content. The smaller IBISWorld collections in the CZ are not connected to a CDI DB and they aren't complete (e.g., there's no collection for the Ontario Provincial Reports). Please make more subset collections and CDI DBs for them.
4 votesHello,
We will reach out to the provider and ask for the metadata for the sub-collections.We will also look into mapping them to CDI.
Thanks,

Improve the metadata of Dalloz Bibliothèque in CZ and CDI
- Dalloz Bibliothèque
- Collection ID : 613680000000000037
- CDI Collection ID (DB ID): O7M
- Material type : books (currently : 2576)
The quality of the metadata for Dalloz Bibliothèque in the CZ and CDI is extremely poor (sometimes only one title). Please, consider enriching the metadata with those coming from the SUDOC (more complete and of better quality). Enrichment could perhaps be based on the PPN (SUDOC identifier) that you have already injected into the CZ records?

Thanks for the clarification.
Let me take it internally and check what we can do.

Request the improvement of user experience for "lancet"
Currently, as per the design of 360 Link, the title is changed to "Lancet" and ISSN is removed if the title contains "lancet" and ISSN is 0099-5355 (for North America) or 0140-6736 (for British).
Because of this design, users need to select an exact title from a large number of suggested journal titles on the 360 Link from PubMed on their own.
This is because the setting to every related title of "lancet" is set "lancet " as the alternative title.
This design sometimes helps the user experience, but the negative impact is also huge for the user.So we…

Enrich metadata from vendor Editions ENI in the Alma CZ
The ebook records in the e-collection "Bibliotheque numerique ENI" have currently brief level 3. So generally only ISBNs, publication year and title in their metadata. This is not enough to provide optimal discovery experience for users.
We would like to ask you to enrich the metadata and enhance the brief level. We are also in contact with the publisher and will post here any feedback from their side.
33 votesHello,
It appears we do not have an enrichment agreement with the content provider, ENI.
We will reach out to them and check if they can send us a feed for this collection, but if you have a contact person that we can work with that would be very helpful.
Thanks,
