Hello Tamar,
Thank you for creating the CZ collections for this product. Do you also plan to add full enriched MARC records? If so, can you please provide a timeline on it?
Thank you for your support!

Duke University Libraries also supports adding these collections to the Alma Community Zone.

Thanks,

Even added these requested databases as 0-title databases for ERM purposes in the 360 Client Center would be appreciated.

We request that Ex Libris add electronic collections for content on the Africa Commons platform (https://coherentdigital.net/africacommons) by Coherent Digital.

Coherent Digital already has some content in the KB (Alma Electronic Collection ID 614930000000000295, Policy Commons), so I am marking this an Existing Provider Request.

Africa Commons contains digitized primary source content (books, magazines, newspapers, ephemera, films, etc) published in Africa, much of which has never been available digitally before. This collection will thus improve the geographic and cultural diversity of Ex Libris content.

Currently, a total of four collections are available on the platform:
Africa Commons: History and Culture
Black South African Magazines
Southern African Films and Documentaries
The Hilary Ng’weno Archive

Because these are primary source materials, we suspect they may work best as CDI link in record collections. However, for the collections with substantial journal runs (Black South African Magazines and The Hilary Ng’weno Archive) , if those journals have ISSNs and coverage dates in KBART files, it might be possible to load them as KB collections.

I recently attended an Africa Commons webinar with Coherent Digital representatives Lenny Rogers (lennyrogers@coherentdigital.net), Elizabeth Robey (erobey@coherentdigital.net), and Yoomna Rahim (yrahim@coherentdigital.net). I recommend reaching out to them, as they are eager to share their files with discovery vendors. I recommend reaching out to them to obtain the files for these collections.

Hi Tamar,

I was recently on a call with Lenny Rogers (lennyrogers@coherentdigital.net), Elizabeth Robey (erobey@coherentdigital.net), and Yoomna Rahim (yrahim@coherentdigital.net). I recommend reaching out to them, as they are interested in sharing their files with discovery vendors.

Hello,
Unfortunately, we were not able to establish a connection with the provider.
Therefor I am closing this idea.
Kind regards,
Tamar

Hello,
Is there a direct contact person we can reach out to?
We are not receiving any responses from the general email address.
