Add Big Ten Open Books collection
The Big Ten Academic Alliance (a consortium of major U.S. libraries, of which Rutgers is a member) has released an ebook collection called Big Ten Open Ebooks (https://www.fulcrum.org/bigten) on the Fulcrum platform, the University of Michigan's ebook platform. Several collections from University of Michigan's Fulcrum platform are already in the CZ, including ACLS Humanities Ebook and University of Michigan Press Ebooks. The University of Michigan manages all the metadata for these old collections and this new collection. Could Ex Libris please work with established provider partner, University of Michigan, to load this new collection?
This new collection should be added to the KBs. Specifically, we would like it to be added to the Alma Community Zone. The collection consists of 100 open access ebooks from BTAA university presses in the areas of gender & sexuality studies, so it would increase the diversity of KB content, and because the content is open, all Ex Libris libraries would be able to activate these collections and make these books available to their users.
