Occasionally the Alma e-collections are replaced by a new e-collection either due to the Alma weekly update or a subscription has changed and a new e-collection needs to be activated.   For example, recently the Springer Standard Collection was deactivated and the new Springer AutoHoldings e-collection was activated.  Same with Safari O’Reilly, the CO order information has been migrated over to Safari O’Reilly in the NZ.

When an NZ Opt-in e-collection is swapped out for a different e-collection, libraries can update their local IZ POLs with the e-collection new name.  Locate the local POL for the Opt-in e-collection and go to the Description tab and enter in the new name.

...

Note: If an active e-collection is being swapped out for a new e-collection, and there is  POL attached to the e-collection, the POL number can be moved to the new e-collection.  Edit the e-collection and to the General tab.  Add the existing POL number to the new e-collection.  Also add in the license information for this e-collection.  Then go to the old e-collection and remove the POL and license information before deleting the e-collection from the IZ.
