Add Nexis Uni collections to Primo Central Index and Alma knowledge base
Please add Nexis Uni (new Lexis Nexis Academic interface) collections to Primo Central Index and Alma knowledge base
Hello all,
As previously updated, this content is already available in our Delivery products.
Following discussions with Lexis we have reached the mutual conclusion that at this time Ex Libris will not be able to ingest this content in our Discovery products.
Lexis are currently unable to provide Ex Libris with the metadata in a format that we can properly process.
Best,
Rael

I've noticed that Nexis Uni law journal and news content is now searchable through Primo VE. Are there any plans in the works to include legal reference materials, business dossiers, and other materials at any point soon? By the look of the post by Rael on March 14, 2019, there seems to be a metadata issue. Has there been any movement on that issue? Nexis Uni is a very important resource for many community college libraries, so we are hoping that the database's complete content will be searchable through Primo VE soon.

We are currently having problems with Nexis Uni and it would be AMAZING if this can be figured out so that our users can access this through Primo.

How can we make this happen? Lexis Nexis Law Reviews is available, why not Lexis Nexis Academic? How different can the meta data be?

According to ALMA-L posts from today (January 18) and from November 2017, a Nexis Uni collection now exists in the Alma Community Zone, but OpenURL linking is only supported at the journal title level, not at the item(article) level, which is confusing for many patrons. So the implementation is underway, but many of us would consider it incomplete as it currently falls short of what we need in order to activate the collection for our users.

What is the timeline for adding Nexis Uni portfolios to Alma KB? Our access to LexisNexis academic ends on September 30 so we need a collection in Alma in place by then.

400 libraries were migrated to Nexis Uni at the same time as mine in early August. Our acces to the previous platform, LexisNexis Academic will be gone by early October. We need acces to Nexis Uni vai SFX.
