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

If you want to add an institutional repository, please open a case and follow the documentation here:

    Hello,

    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.

    Kind regards,

  14. Taylor & Francis Psychology Archive 2024

    You can find the title list under Taylor & Francis Psychology Archive 2024 on this page:

  15. Oxford Scholarship Online Yearly subject specific collections for years prior to 2022

    Most of the Oxford Scholarship Online subject specific collections only have yearly collections that go back to 2022 (for example Classical Studies has a 2022 and 2023 collection).

    Political Science
    Literature
    Business & Management
    Classical Studies
    Economics and Finance
    History
    Linguistics
    Neuroscience
    Philosophy
    Psychology
    Public Health and Epidemiology

  16. 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…
