Add Pressbooks Directory records to the CKB as a portfolio collection
Previously the Pressbooks Directory was added to the CDI: https://ideas.exlibrisgroup.com/forums/574345-content/suggestions/42757319-ners-2021-pressbooks-directory
That idea includes many community comments around a desire for a CKB collection instead, with significant benefits to this, such as adding metadata for discovery and to support OER initiatives by the library.
There is good news starting in August, as Pressbooks has added an OPDS feed to their environment:

August 2025 update: https://youtu.be/45GPrE-l8Hg?si=8gPkGAKcdwueXZqd&t=718
It would be great if Ex Libris could support Alma/Primo libraries globally to add these records as a portfolio based title level collection to the Alma Community Zone, as an Ex Libris managed collection.
Hello,
This request has been selected as part of the 2026 CERV votes.
We will reach out to the content provider, and ask for the metadata for this collection.
Kind regards,
