Content
We welcome your ideas for new content (metadata) to add to the Knowledge Bases (KBs - Alma CZ, SFX, 360) and Discovery services (CDI - Central Discovery Index whose data supports Primo and Summon).
- Check if your idea has already been posted and vote for it before posting a new idea.
- Choose the right category: "New Provider" for content from a provider that has no available content in the KBs or CDI, or "Existing Provider" for content from a provider that already has content available in the KBs or CDI.
- Add a direct link to the provider/resource you suggest, and a contact person if possible.
- For enrichment requests add the relevant collection ID(s).
- Make sure you mention any specific added value your idea has to the community such as language or supporting diversity.
- Did you find errors in an existing collection? please open a case.
- A new year has begun but no corresponding annual collection? post an idea in Idea Exchange, make sure to mention if it is an existing provider.
- Existing Provider - if your idea is for a new collection from a provider that already has content available in the KBs and CDI or enriching records for an existing collection, use this category. No voting is necessary, ideas for existing providers will be handled regardless of voting.
- New Providers - if your idea is for content from a provider that does not have any content available in the KBs and CDI, choose this category. The ideas for new providers will be annually prioritized via the CERV process.

EMBOpress
Hello,
Beginning this year, EMBO Journal ISSN 0261-4189, along with all other journals published by EMBOpress, left Wiley to Springer Nature. However, the journal is only published through cooperation with Springer Nature and not on the Springer Nature platform. Currently in ExLibris, there is no appropriate database for this journal. There are plenty of Wiley databases that remain. However, because this journal is no longer published through Wiley, I would rather not use those holdings. My question/idea is, can you please create a provider for EMBOpress, which would include EMBO Journal and all other journals published through EMBOpress?

Add journal 'Art + Auction' from Ebsco
The journal 'Art + Auction' is part of Ebsco's Art and Architecture Source, but because it's changed title and ISSN in the past, there is quite a bit of coverage that is not indexed in Primo, even though it's available on the platform.
ExLibris explained as follows:
"Art & Auction (ISSN 0197-1093) - covered up to 2013.
Blouin Art + Auction (ISSN 2331-5342) - started from 2014 onwards.
In Alma, and particularly in the Community Zone, it's common that the provider (EBSCO in this case) combines coverage for both ISSNs into a single title or portfolio, especially if the publisher…4 votesAdminTamar Ganor

Hello,
We do not receive discovery metadata from Ebsco.
In order to obtain such metadata, we will need to establish a workflow with a new provider - the publisher of Art + Auction.
Since the process for new providers is going through CERV, I have changed the status of this request and it will be prioritized by the Content Working Group.

New source for CDI: The Conversation
The Conversation (https://theconversation.com/) would be a valuable source to add to the CDI and make available in Primo as it provides Academic 'magazine-style' articles, often in multiple languages. There are region/country specific editions of "The Conversation" so this would need to be considered when adding them.

Directly Index National Council of Teachers of Mathematics
I asked about article-level records for the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics journals, and was told "Currently we do not have this collection's content directly indexed; instead we rely on aggregators to provide alternative coverage, which may change over time. In order to ensure that the content is available, we recommend submitting a suggestion for direct ingestion via the ExLibris Idea Exchange for content"
Some articles show up through aggregators, but not all, and it would be good to have all articles show up.
