    Hi Ex Libris,

    We appreciate seeing these records in the CZ! However, they are very brief and much lower quality than the records we are getting straight from Kanopy, which include much more descriptive information. Will Ex Libris be working with Kanopy to enrich these records to improve their quality? Having full records in the CZ would really increase the usability of these collections!

    Hello,
    We are discussing technical and legal aspects with OverDrive to include Kanopy metadata in the Knowledgebases and CDI.
    Kind regards,

    I support this idea. It would be great for PASCAL members to have access to Kanopy in the CZ and the CDI. A number of our members currently subscribe to the Kanopy Base collection, so having that collection available would specifically be very helpful. We use Alma and Primo VE though.

  • Elizabeth York commented  · 

    How is this process going? We hope that Kanopy's full title list can be added to the Alma CZ. This collection should use Kanopy's full MARC records (like the Alexander Street video collections in the CZ use the full records from Alexander Street), and each record should contain a Kanopy-specific identifier in an 035 field that can be matched using the portfolio loader so we can selectively activate just our Kanopy titles using the portfolio loader.

    Our faculty and students would like to find titles in Primo

    Hi, can you please give us an update on any progress in the indexing process of Kanopy in CDI.

  • Toby Teng commented  · 

    Titles from Kanopy used to be searchable with PCI. After moving to CDI, this was removed from the index in 2019. We really need it back in CDI and Primo VE please.

    The MCC Library has inquired over the last few years about making Kanopy streaming content discoverable via a Summon search. This would be a great achievement, especially in light of COVID that has made reliance on streaming content all the more valuable. Hoping this issue gets picked up by the Ex Libris developers team and something can be negotiated with Kanopy!

    It would be great to have Kanopy available in Primo!

    We can't provide a good user experience for students without Kanopy streaming videos being available in Primo.

  • JaneBell commented  · 

    Kanopy streaming of video database connection for Discovery is a priority. It is a must have.

  • Zachary Richardson commented  · 

    Kanopy indexing is a priority. Please add Kanopy streaming videos to Primo.
