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

  1. 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.

    Hello,

    This idea has been selected in the NERS voting process to be pursued as a new content provider.

    We will check with Lexbase if they can provide us with metadata for the Knowledgebases and CDI.

    If you can provide a direct contact with Lexbase, that would be very helpful.

    Kind regards,

  5. Journal & Highly Cited Data (JHCD) with Benchmarks & Analytics

    The BCU Lausanne subscribs to the « Journal & Highly Cited Data (JHCD) with Benchmarks & Analytics » database, provided by Clarivate Analytics (ex Thomson Reuters). The Benchmarks & Analytics module is only accessible with a password.

    We would like to activate this database in the Alma Community Zone, but we only found the « Journal & Highly Cited Data (JHCD) » electronic collection.

    We ask you to include the « Journal & Highly Cited Data (JHCD) with Benchmarks & Analytics » in the CZ.

  6. CZ collection: Korea Open Access Journals

    These 41 open access journals have gotten multiple requests and would be a great addition:
    http://www.kci.go.kr/kciportal/landing/FullJournal.kci

    Many citations for them are already in CrossRef so users are aware of the content.

  14. British Standards Online database - create a JISC-only sub collection

    We have access to the British Standards Online database via a JISC deal which whilst it includes access to more than 60,000 standard it does not include all British Standards Online database content. We have this activated on PCI in order to access the full text, which presents an issue when unsubscribed content is located as this shows as full text available, when in fact this is outside of our subscription. PCI activations does not split the content but activates the database in entirety.

    We use Alma and Primo, again only the database in entirety is available to track via…
