The E-Resources group recommends that the use of the 930/973 in the collocation of electronic collections be determined by local Resource Management and Discovery needs at individual campuses. We also recommend the creation of Electronic Collections in Alma to replace the discovery, collocation, and management functions of the 930/973

Note: While our recommendation groups the 930 and 973 fields together, use of the 930 in Alma is limited to CDL, while the 973 is the equivalent field for local campuses.

Impact

DISC

  • Local Discovery teams can determine patron and staff use of 930/973 in Primo VE search and in their Database A-Z Lists

RM

  • Local Cataloging departments can determine the needed campus resources to create and maintain 930/973 in IZ bibliographic records as part of routine maintenance

  • Local Cataloging departments can determine the work needed to create electronic collections from existing standalone electronic inventory using the old 930/973

  • Using 930/973 for prospective work will primarily pertain to Special Collections, although these can also be organized into IZ collections to automate management

ERES

  • In the absence of the 930/973, local e-resources units can activate Community Zone electronic collections and databases without manual changes to Electronic Collection Names

  • Changes to collections are easier to manage when they are in Electronic Collections rather than standalone portfolios
