- Add a direct link to the provider/resource you suggest, and a contact person if possible.

- 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.
- 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. The ideas for new providers will be annually prioritized via the CERV process.

filtering out book chapters with no meaningful scholarly content
Develop a method for filtering out book chapters with no meaningful scholarly content from CDI (e.g., title page, copyright, acknowledgements, etc.). These tend to glut up search results and confuse library patrons.
For example:
Chapter Title = Acknowledgements
https://rutgers.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/discovery/search?query=title,begins_with,acknowledgements,AND&tab=Everything_except_research&search_scope=MyInst_and_CI_2&sortby=title&vid=01RUT_INST:01RUT&lang=en&mode=advanced&offset=0&facet=rtype,include,book_chapters,lk6 votes -

Hello,
We currently don't receive any metadata from Medialex.
Their content is available in CDI through DOAJ, and as this is a new provider, it will need to go through the CERV (previously NERS) voting cycle.
Kind regards,
