start enrichment process for Hogrefe eBooks (Hogrefe eLibrary)
ExLibris created an automation for updates that will run on a weekly basis and will check for any changes made to the title list by Hogrefe Verlag. However, the metadata are rudimentary. We are missing author or editor, place of publication and publisher in the metadata. This makes it difficult to find out the ebooks in Primo VE.
Hence: could you please start an enrichment process with Hogrefe for their eLibrary eBooks titles?
119 votesHello,
After feedback from the community, we have reopened this idea.
The provider MARC will add authors, 300, better language and 008, Publisher.
Please be advised that although some improvement is expected, it will not enrich the records to robust Bibliographic records that meets library standards.
We will complete the enrichment by end of May 2024.
Kind regards,

Improve the metadata of Dalloz Bibliothèque in CZ and CDI
- Dalloz Bibliothèque
- Collection ID : 613680000000000037
- CDI Collection ID (DB ID): O7M
- Material type : books (currently : 2576)
The quality of the metadata for Dalloz Bibliothèque in the CZ and CDI is extremely poor (sometimes only one title). Please, consider enriching the metadata with those coming from the SUDOC (more complete and of better quality). Enrichment could perhaps be based on the PPN (SUDOC identifier) that you have already injected into the CZ records?

Thanks for the clarification.

Enrich metadata from vendor Editions ENI in the Alma CZ
The ebook records in the e-collection "Bibliotheque numerique ENI" have currently brief level 3. So generally only ISBNs, publication year and title in their metadata. This is not enough to provide optimal discovery experience for users.
We would like to ask you to enrich the metadata and enhance the brief level. We are also in contact with the publisher and will post here any feedback from their side.
33 votesHello,
We have an agreement in place, and are planning to proceed with enrichment by end of June 20024.

Add the "freely available" titles in the EZB "Medicine" category as a new target
Add the "freely available" titles in the EZB "Medicine" category as a new target for the SFX Knowledgebase. There are already many EZB (University Library of Regensburg Electronic Journals Library) targets in SFX, including the ZB-FREE-00999FREELYAVAILABLEEZBJOURNALS full-text target. This currently contains around 68,000 free title object portfolios.
We would like to be able to use the "Medicine" subset of the free target (currently 8,977 titles) as many of the other titles are not relevant to our clinicians

Center for Research Libraries full text collection in PCI
We would like to see a new subcollection in Primo Central Index for the Center for Research Libraries "Online Catalog".
Records in the Online Catalog PCI collection currently link to both CRL metadata only records and CRL records with digitized content.
If there was a CRL Online Catalog Full Text Only collection (with Link in Record) that only contained "Available online for Center for Research Libraries" (excluding the "Hathitrust available" records) we could activate that collection with assurance our users would be pointed to full text content.
This content would only be available to CRL members.

Better Metadata for HANSER_ELIBRARY_BOOKS
The bib records in the electronic collection Hanser Elibrary Books are very poor and sometimes even wrong.
i.e. MMS-ID 993440000000000927:
LDR -----cam-a22-----z--4500
008 210309u1916uuuuuuuuu-|-o----u|----|dut-d
035 __ |a (CKB)3440000000000927
245 00 |a VoIP Praxisleitfaden
776 __ |z 3-446-44491-2
776 __ |z 3-446-44814-4
906 __ |a BOOKAuthors, title and other bibliographic information are missing, year and language are wrong.
The publisher Hanser offers libraries much better metadata, therefore I suggest to improve it in the CZ.
