← Have an idea for Ex Libris?

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).


How to increase your idea's visibility and get more votes:
  1. Check if your idea has already been posted and vote for it before posting a new idea.
  2. 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.
  3. Add a direct link to the provider/resource you suggest, and a contact person if possible.
  4. For enrichment requests add the relevant collection ID(s). 
  5. Make sure you mention any specific added value your idea has to the community such as language or supporting diversity.
  6. Did you find errors in an existing collection? please open a case.
  7. 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.


The categories for new content ideas are:
  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Other - for non provider specific ideas

If you want to add an institutional repository, please open a case and follow the documentation here:

How can we improve Content?

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".
(thinking…)

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can support and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can support it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

  2. Docuseek Complete Collection 4th Edition for Life of File

    Please work with Docuseek to add a collection for the Docuseek Complete Collection 4th Edition for Life of File to the ALMA CZ. Ideally this collection would have full MARC records as you have done with other Docuseek collections such as The Docuseek Complete Collection 3rd Edition Upgrade.

    I know there is already an idea to add Docuseek Complete Collection 4th Edition Upgrade but please also work to add the Life of File collection.

    This database just migrated to the EBSCOhost platform. Someone requested this for Alma, and it's listed as "already supported", but has not yet been added to Ex Libris 360. 0-title for ERM purposes is fine.

  10. Qwest TV in Alexander street

    Hello,
    Qwest tv is migrating to Alexander Street 8/31. It is available now from June-August. Will you be adding the new ASP interface to Alma? We only see one database with the interface Qwest Tv,Collection ID: 615300000000000195

    We do see this selective package: Music Online: The Qwest TV Collection - All Titles, but it says Music Online and the title count looks low compared to the 1000+ titles in the Qwest collection. Is this the replacement option?

    This collection only contains ~6,500 titles in Full Text, the rest are abstracts only.

    We will proceed to create this collection with the Full Text titles in Alma CZ.

    I will update once I have a timeline.
