The last update to this database on 360KB has been in 2020. It currently only includes 4 titles on 360KB, one of which (Medicine, Ethics and the Law) we don't subscribe to.

We're particularly looking for an inclusion of the subsection 'International Tax Service' (9 titles) to make these discoverable to our users.

De Gruyter Mellon Lectures
Hello,
We purchased a new collection from De Gruyter - Princeton Mellon Lectures. This includes 46 lectures published between 1953 and 2022.
Could you please investigate whether is it possible to have a discrete collection created for these titles? I'm aware that they are available in the community zone in general De Gruyter ebook collections -- a discrete collection is preferable.
Thank you,
Erin3 votesHello,
As there already is a collection for the Mellon lectures, I am closing this idea as "already supported".
Thanks,
