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

    Hello,

    There are three Swank collections in the Knowledgebases:

    SWANK_DIGITAL_CAMPUS_TOP_1000_VIDEOS
    SWANK_DIGITAL_CAMPUS_TOP_1500_COLLECTION
    SWANK_DIGITAL_CAMPUS_TOP_500_VIDEOS

    However, it is not possible for Swank to send metadata for discovery as their agreements do not allow sharing that level of metadata.

    Kind regards,

    Hello,

    Following analysis we find that this content is better suited to be added to the CDI.
    We have made multiple attempts to reach out to the provider but have been unable to establish contact.

    As such, we are closing out this request.
    If any members of the community have a contact that is engaged in pursuing this agreement, we would be happy to reopen and reconsider this request.

    Thank you for your contribution!

  6. i-law

    i-law from Informa PLC is currently in the KB, but none of the content is in the Summon index. It would be very helpful to us if it could be indexed down to article level.

  14. Classiques Sciences Sociales Free

    Classiques Sciences Sociales Free collection is composed of more than 4,300 portfolios. Most of the records are very poor: only the title, one author, and the eISBN. The publication date in 008/7-10 is usually incorrect.
    Full Marc records exist for these items and are available under certain conditions (for libraries) at http://classiques.uqac.ca/inter/telechargement_notices.php?lang=en
    Note also that Les Classiques des sciences sociales actually contain more than 6,500 free works http://classiques.uqac.ca . A general update of this collection would be welcome.

  17. It would be get to have EIU databases indexed into Summon

    Summon is a very huge part of what student use for research so they do not have to go to multiple databases and to figure out again later if they have or have not tried that database. With having EIU database in Summon it will provide users other database that will come up when they are searching for topics on economic trends, political, cultural information, business, finance, science, and technology. This will help expand these areas for all users.

    Hello all,

    As previously updated, following our extensive analysis and assessments of the complexity for both Ex Libris and CORE to provide and display this content on the necessary level of quality and currency, we will not ingest the CORE content.

    At this stage there is no change to this status and our decision, though we do routinely review the request. We will reopen the request should anything change.

    We continue to be interested in ingesting this type of content and are continuously working with providers to promote this activity.

    Hello all,

    At this point we will need to decline this request as Agrovoc can provide several formats though these do not include the MARC format which is required for us to ingest Authorities.

    We apologize for the inconvenience, but will keep this request in our backlog should we be able to ingest other formats in the future, or if Agrovoc provide the MARC format.
    If you become aware of a change in the available file formats from Agrovoc please let us know and we can reopen this request.
