← Have an idea for Ex Libris?

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

How can we improve Content?

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".
(thinking…)

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can support and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can support it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

  5. Convert existing Praeger Security International Database-type collection to Aggregator Package collection and load ebook portfolios, Alma CZ

    Request Ex Libris convert the existing Praeger Security International Database-type collection (CZ Collection ID: 6114028120000041) to an Aggregator Package collection that contains portfolios for all of the ebooks available via PSI (currently 836 ebooks).

    As a result, we would no longer have to manually load new ebook portfolios and attach them to the database-type collection when new titles are added to PSI (or remove portfolios when titles are removed) in order for them to be discoverable in Primo VE.

    MARC records are available here: https://marcrecords.abc-clio.com/

    Hello,

    The ProQuest Dissertations and Theses content is fully represented in our Central Discovery Index.
    With millions of titles, this scale of content cannot be sustained on the KB level and is best served in this format, as activation is required only on the collection level.

    Best,

  19. New Collection: Max Weber E-Book Gesamtausgabe from Publisher MohrSiebeck

    Dear all

    Could you please create a new target, MOHR SIEBECK MAX WEBER EBOOK GESAMTAUSGABE in SFX and add all the objects from the attachement.

    The Max Weber-Gesamtausgabe contains Max Weber's published and previously unpublished texts with the exception of his excerpts, marginalia or editorial comments on the texts of others. Reports written by others on Weber's speeches, his contributions to discussions and his lectures have only been included if there are no accounts of these by the author himself. (https://www.mohrsiebeck.com/en/multi-volume-work/max-weber-gesamtausgabe-mwg-323700000?no_cache=1)

    Best regards
