Reasoning

Background

Prior to the migration to a consortium, campuses were able to curate their CDI collections. While this required them to turn on access to individual collections, it also allowed them to weed out collections with poor metadata.

The UC Library system is now on EasyActive. “Alma collections that you have active because you subscribe to their full text will become automatically searchable in CDI. For those collections no separate search activations are necessary.”

PPC (Go Live) CDI Models: FullyFlexible or EasyActive

“It is also important to note that while CDI collections in the EasyActive model cannot be “de-searchified” (ie. hidden from users even in expanded results sets), administrators can “override” the full-text activation, effectively hiding these collections behind the “Expand” option (for campuses limiting by availability).”

Campuses are allowed to decide for themselves if they would have their default search limit CDI results by availability or not.

We are revisiting this issue in order to provide guidance and examples of the pros and cons of limiting by availability or not.
