Add "RVM - le Répertoire de vedettes-matière" to Alma CZ
We suggest the addition of University Laval's RVM subject authorities to the Alma CZ:

We are a large bilingual (English-French) academic library, with more than 35% of our collection consisting of French materials. We create French cataloguing records, including French subject headings, for all titles in French that we hold.
Alma currently provides access to over 50 authorities in several languages, unfortunately RVM is not one of them. Consequently, our cataloguing process for French materials is much slower than the process for materials in other languages as we need to consult RVM website every time when searching for French subject headings. We would save a lot of time if this vocabulary were available to our cataloguers in Alma.
RVM is one of the largest French authorities serving several library communities worldwide.
Hello,
Unfortunately, Ex Libris will not be able to include RVM in Alma CZ due to contractual disagreements which cannot be resolved.
RVM is available for local management for subscribing institutions.
Kind regards,
Tamar Ganor

Seconded. We are a medium-sized bilingual (English-French) academic library that follows the same approach for our materials as the originator, and our cataloguers would also greatly appreciate the addition of RVM to Alma.
