Create a way to distinguish volumes for a single title
There is a title in Gale resources, Encyclopedia of African-American culture and history : the Black experience in the Americas, that has several portfolios available. Each portfolio links to a different volume in Gale. Each portfolio has unique linking but if you see the title in Primo, you will see only the title listed, many times. I had to add a volume note to each portfolio so users could tell each title apart. This was not the only title I've found that is like this. Ex Libris stated there is no way to add the volume to the title. It…

Better Metadata for HANSER_ELIBRARY_BOOKS
The bib records in the electronic collection Hanser Elibrary Books are very poor and sometimes even wrong.
i.e. MMS-ID 993440000000000927:
LDR -----cam-a22-----z--4500
008 210309u1916uuuuuuuuu-|-o----u|----|dut-d
035 __ |a (CKB)3440000000000927
245 00 |a VoIP Praxisleitfaden
776 __ |z 3-446-44491-2
776 __ |z 3-446-44814-4
906 __ |a BOOKAuthors, title and other bibliographic information are missing, year and language are wrong.
The publisher Hanser offers libraries much better metadata, therefore I suggest to improve it in the CZ.

Hello,
Please consider contacting WIT Press in order to add the WIT Press eLibrary to the Alma CZ and CDI for indexing.
