Please add EBSCOhost MAS Reference ebook collection
From the Internet description, MAS Reference eBook collection is a companion to the MAS Complete collections. While MAS Complete collections are in the CZ, MAS Reference ebook collection is not.
Please consider adding this collection as a database or as a ebook collection.
Hello,
We will reach out to Ebsco, and ask for the metadata for this collection.
Thanks,

Hi Tamar,
Thank you for your response. I mentioned Mas Complete eBook collection was just to give a context for the Mas Reference eBook Collection. The Mas Reference eBook Collection is what our request about. I could no longer find the reference of the context any more on the Internet. However, the heart of the issue is: We have access to the MAS Reference eBook collection, but it is not in CZ.
From the EBSCOhost collections short name list (https://connect.ebsco.com/s/article/EBSCOhost-Database-Short-Names-List), it only lists MAS Reference eBook Subscription, and there is no "Mas Complete eBook collection". So we pretty much can ignore the mention of it. The Mas Reference eBook collection is what we want to activate in CZ.
We also have discovered that if we click on the descriptive record of Mas Complete eBook collection in CZ (ID: 615470000000000407), 245 and 520 actually say "MAS Reference eBook Collection". My guess is, perhaps this is actually the Mas Reference eBook Collection with the name of the collection mixed up.
If EBSCOhost said both collections have the same title list, then if the name of the Mas Complete eBook collection is changed to Mas Reference eBook Collection to match the descriptive record, then we can activate it to link to our collection in IZ.
Please see screenshots.
Thanks!
Pauline

Hello,
Hello,
According to Ebsco, EBSCOhost MAS Reference ebook collection has the same title list as EBSCOhost MAS Complete eBook Collection, Collection ID: 615470000000000407.
Since you stated it is not the same, I would appreciate more information.
Perhaps you can share a code for this collection or some other indication that it should be a separate collection?
Thanks,
Tamar
