Add the Oregonian newspaper to Primo Central Index
We suggest ingesting article-level content from the Oregonian newspaper to Central Discovery Index (CDI), so that users can search and discover all the subscribed content with one interface. We have historical and current content from the Oregonian, but access to full text articles is limited via the Newspapers Search interface.
It is important to ensure content is available to our users via the discovery systems as this is one of our most used newspapers, focusing on Oregon and the Pacific Northwest.
Thank you for considering our request.

Sherpa RoMEO indicator embedding
Embed a Sherpa RoMEO colour indicator and a mouse-over floating tip reading info from RoMEO about a journal's copyright and self-archiving policy.
Doing this for the search results on EJP could be a great favor.
Sherpo RoMEO pubs data under CC BY-NC-ND license which seems to ban EL from re-using them? Or EL may talk to them.

Enrich metadata from vendor Editions ENI in the Alma CZ
The ebook records in the e-collection "Bibliotheque numerique ENI" have currently brief level 3. So generally only ISBNs, publication year and title in their metadata. This is not enough to provide optimal discovery experience for users.
We would like to ask you to enrich the metadata and enhance the brief level. We are also in contact with the publisher and will post here any feedback from their side.
30 votesHello,
We have an agreement in place, and are planning to proceed with enrichment by end of June 20024.
