American Welding Society eBooks
American Welding Society eBooks is available through the ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) Digital Collection. The page for the books is below:
https://asmedigitalcollection.asme.org/aws-ebooks
ALMA does not have a collection for these books nor do the books seem to be available through other ASME collections in ALMA.
Please added a collection for these books.
1 voteHello,
Apologies for the delay in my response.
We will reach out to the provider and ask for the title list.
If we use the title list you provided, we will not be able to create this as an automatically updated collection, and it will be configured as "managed by community". So we prefer to ask the provider for an updated title location that can be automated.

Add CDI link-in record records for 3 JoVE Encyclopedia of Experiments collections
JoVE, an existing provider partner of Ex Libris, has contributed many video collections to the CZ. Most of the collections have CDI link in record records we can activate. The MARCs and portfolios for JoVE are very poor (because these are video collections, so it's not possible to generate good data from the KBART files loaded to produce the portfolios and bibs), so it is very important that there be link in record records we can activate instead. However, for 3 JoVE Encyclopedia of Experiments collections, there are portfolios and bibs but no link in record records. Could Ex Libris…
