- Did you find errors in an existing collection? please open a case.
- A new year has begun but no corresponding annual collection? post an idea in Idea Exchange, make sure to mention if it is an existing provider.
- Existing Provider - if your idea is for a new collection from a provider that already has content available in the KBs and CDI or enriching records for an existing collection, use this category. No voting is necessary, ideas for existing providers will be handled regardless of voting.

Taylor & Francis Psychology - create an Alma CZ collection for this vendor collection
Please create an Alma CZ collection for vendor collection: TAYLORFRANCISPSYCHOLOGY_COLLECTION.
A current title list for the T&F Psychology collection (104 titles) can be found at: https://librarianresources.taylorandfrancis.com/product-info/journals/psychology-subject
This is an updating collection, comparable to the other Taylor & Francis collections already in the Alma CZ. Uncertain why this one has been missed.

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).

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…
