Content

We welcome your ideas for new content (metadata) to add to the Knowledge Bases (KBs - Alma CZ, SFX, 360) and Discovery services (CDI - Central Discovery Index whose data supports Primo and Summon).


How to increase your idea's visibility and get more votes:
  1. Check if your idea has already been posted and vote for it before posting a new idea.
  2. Choose the right category: "New Provider" for content from a provider that has no available content in the KBs or CDI, or "Existing Provider" for content from a provider that already has content available in the KBs or CDI.
  3. Add a direct link to the provider/resource you suggest, and a contact person if possible.
  4. For enrichment requests add the relevant collection ID(s). 
  5. Make sure you mention any specific added value your idea has to the community such as language or supporting diversity.
  6. Did you find errors in an existing collection? please open a case.
  7. 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.


The categories for new content ideas are:
  1. 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.
  2. New Providers - if your idea is for content from a provider that does not have any content available in the KBs and CDI, choose this category.
  3. Other - for non provider specific ideas

  11. Add "ACS Symposium Series eBooks - Archives" to CZ

    Could you please add the "ACS Symposium Series eBooks - Archives" as a collection in the Alma Community Zone knowledge base?

    Currently there's an "American Chemical Society Symposium Series" collection in the CZ which includes backfile and front file titles.

    Since my library only owns the archival collection, I have to select only those titles in the larger Symposium CZ collections since there's no separate archive collection.

    The archival collection has a 4 year moving wall where it gains a new year of titles annually.

    Thank you.

  12. MOOC, Open Courses and Open Coursewares

    As helpful to newbies on curtain subject as other results already included in Summon Index.

    Index the resourses from Coursera, edX, HarvardX, or any MOOC platform around the world. As well as OCWs at MIT, etc.

    Many popular courses are hosted on multiple platforms, so they need to be generalized by name and teachers, like what EJP does for journals, I suppose.

  18. Collection: Unglue.it open access books

    unglue.it provides free MARC records for its collection of open access ebooks (see https://unglue.it/libraries/)

    This would be useful both for discovery (complementing other open access resources) and as a collection for CZ (so we could choose to activate either specific titles or the whole collection.)

    (From previous conversations with them I'm sure they'd very much welcome working on this with Ex Libris.)
