- Add a direct link to the provider/resource you suggest, and a contact person if possible.
- For enrichment requests add the relevant collection ID(s).
- Make sure you mention any specific added value your idea has to the community such as language or supporting diversity.
- Did you find errors in an existing collection? please open a case.
- 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.

Add the Bridget Williams Books collections to Primo Central Index
As a student and researcher of New Zealand materials I would like the books published by Bridget Williams Books to be indexed in Primo Central Index.
Background: Currently the content of these collections is not discoverable in Primo. This makes it harder to discover key New Zealand content and impacts the efficiency of my study and research capabilities.
49 votesHello,
We will check if we can establish a feed for this content to be available in our Discovery services.
Thanks for posting this idea and for all the votes,

Add videos from "CBC Curio" to the knowledge base (https://curio.ca/en/)
The Canadian Broadcasting Company (CBC) is Canada's publicly-funded national media station, and almost every Canadian library subscribes to the Curio videostreaming service, so we would like to be able to track the content in Summon and 360 Link.

Add DigiZeitschriften to PCI / CDI
We would like to see the journal platform DigiZeitschriften added to PCI / CDI.
For more information, see: https://www.digizeitschriften.de/en/
In Alma there are already 3 Electronic Collections:
- DigiZeitschriften Open Access
- DigiZeitschriften Subscription
- DigiZeitschriften JournalsPlease keep this subdivision in PCI / CDI.
Since this source contains many old journals without ISSN, it would probably be better if the links to the full text came directly from DigiZeitschriften (Primo Link section) to avoid problems with the link resolver (Alma ViewIt).
Thanks in advance!
48 votesHello,
We are checking if we can add the metadata for discovery as well.

Add the Oregonian newspaper to Primo Central Index
We suggest ingesting article-level content from the Oregonian newspaper to Central Discovery Index (CDI), so that users can search and discover all the subscribed content with one interface. We have historical and current content from the Oregonian, but access to full text articles is limited via the Newspapers Search interface.
It is important to ensure content is available to our users via the discovery systems as this is one of our most used newspapers, focusing on Oregon and the Pacific Northwest.
Thank you for considering our request.

Can you please investigate adding the HeinOnline Academic Core Electronic Collection to the CZ please? It contains the following full text content - https://home.heinonline.org/heinonline-academic-core/
You seem to have a few of these listed separately already. But it would be useful to have them all listed so that we can select them all or have a single Academic Core collection to tick that contains all of the content.
