ERES Policy
As of 7/31/2023 - CRL staff (Amy Wood) are in contact with ExLibris Support and working to correct the metadata feed for the CRL Catalog collection
When this work is complete, ERES will make a recommendation for the activation of which CRL collection(s)
Background
Phase 4 RMFG (post go-live) CRL records in Primo
Prior to the migration RMFG had a recommendation to potentially activate the CRL Catalog collection in order to recreate the discovery environment we had for CRL resources in Melvyl. Consulted with UCLA RMCMOS rep, Hermine Vermeij, and we agreed that while this originally started as a RMFG decision, since it was dealing with CZ collections, it seemed like a question for ERES.
Notes from SILS ERES discussion:
After some review, I think there’s the following breakdown of resources in the various CRL CZ collections:
CRL Monographs/Newspapers/Serials (both OA and non-OA): These collections seem to contain titles that have been digitized and are available for CRL members (or everybody for the OA collections). These all contain portfolios, but aren’t indexed in the CDI.
CRL Catalog: This looks to be just for titles that haven’t been digitized, so are available for members to ILL. This collection only has two portfolios, but has millions(?) of titles indexed in the CDI.
CZ collections in Alma:
