South Asia Commons
a. South Asian History and Culture: https://coherentdigital.net/sahc
b. South Asia Archive: https://coherentdigital.net/southasiacommonsMindscape Commons: https://coherentdigital.net/mindscape
Thanks,

I'm supporting this idea, as Rutgers (and the whole BTAA consortium) has purchased the South Asian History and Culture module. Adding these collections to the CZ would increase the geographic and cultural diversity of CZ content. There already are multiple Coherent Digital collections in the CZ (a CZ search for interface name Coherent Digital has 8 results), so we're hoping Ex Libris will be able to work with this established provider partner on this case. Because these are primary source archives, I suspect that CDI link in record collections may be the best way to represent these collections in Ex Libris systems, as bibs and portfolios tend to only work well with resources with identifiers, such as books (ISBN) and journals (ISSN). So, if you could create link in record records for the primary source materials, and then if you want to create portfolios and MARCs too, please only create them for the materials with real identifiers. Thank you!
