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).


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. The ideas for new providers will be annually prioritized via the CERV process.
  3. Other - for non provider specific ideas

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

**Please be aware that ideas with no comments or votes for the past three years, and have less than 30 votes, will be closed. The closed ideas will still be available for review, and the votes will be freed up for supporting other content ideas.

**If you are a content provider, please review the submission guides for more information on how to reach out

  5. Don't list 1science oaFindr PCI collection as open access

    Not a new collection, but a revision to an existing collection. We have activated the oaFindr PCI collection from 1science, and we've run into a problem. We noticed that the proxy string wasn't being added to these links, because it has been marked as an Open Access collection. While the full text is OA, linking passes through oaFindr, which requires authentication. So the links are not really free to read, and should not be marked as such. We do not wish to proxy all OA materials, so we'd prefer to see this marked as a subscription access database, as access…

    The suggested idea is less about content and more about 360Link functionality.
    As such the suggested idea will not be handled as part of the content forum but the enhancement request was communicated to 360Lnk Product manager who will consider the enhancement.

  14. British Standards Online database - create a JISC-only sub collection

    We have access to the British Standards Online database via a JISC deal which whilst it includes access to more than 60,000 standard it does not include all British Standards Online database content. We have this activated on PCI in order to access the full text, which presents an issue when unsubscribed content is located as this shows as full text available, when in fact this is outside of our subscription. PCI activations does not split the content but activates the database in entirety.

    We use Alma and Primo, again only the database in entirety is available to track via…
