Model 2 is the centralized ordering, acquisition, licensing, activation and e-resource management of the ECC e-resources in the NZ. These e-collections DO NOT appear in the IZ. The Chancellor's Office will manage the acquisition and payment for the e-collections included in the ECC. The continued management of the shared e-collection will be done by the NZ e-resource administrator. The ECC e-collection will have view-only access of the portfolios included in the shared e-collection from the NZ tab. The shared acquisitions data will not be available to be viewed in Model 2. License terms information for Model 2 ECC e-collections can be viewed in Primo . Libraries will be sharing vendor records so these will be viewable from the local Alma instanceand at the portfolio level. The other acquisition data for ECC e-collections will not be viewable. Complementary and open access collections will be included in Model 2.
Model 3 is centralized negotiation and management of the Opt-in e-resources in the NZ instance and local acquisitions managed by libraries in the IZ. The e-collection remains in the NZ tab and has view-only access for the e-collection and portfolios. The acquisitions . License terms and negotiated details are available to the subscribed library. The acquisitions (order records) part of the Opt-ins and Upgrades will be managed and available in the IZ. Upgrades to ECC e-resources will also be included in this model. Upgrades are defined as resources libraries pay a nominal fee to upgrade a resource included in the ECC, i.e. EBSCO Academic Search Complete or Business Source Complete. . Libraries will order the Opt-in resource from the NZ and will maintain order records in the IZ.
The acquisition data will not appear in the e-collection in the NZ tab. To locate the acquisition data in Model 3, a central office user will need the the POL or PO number to locate the acquisitions information for that Opt-in or Upgrade e-collection. ECC/Opt-in e-collections are located and activated or ordered by the NZ e-resource administrator from the CZ and are managed in the NZ. Libraries will then order the Opt-in or Upgrade e-collection from the NZ and manage the acquisitions in the IZ.
License terms and fees are negotiated by the Chancellor's office and purchasing and invoice processing is done by the individual libraries. Libraries will need to create a vendor for the Chancellor's Office (vendor=SDLC/CO) in the IZ for the Opt-in e-collections. The library will use the CO as a vendor to order and pay for the Opt-in resource (Model 3). For more details ordering Opt-in resources, see the Acquisition's policy on Ordering using the Alma Network Zone. (Acquisitions task force is discussing shared vendor records-add best practice here if needed)
The NZ instance must be populated with vendors (material providers and licensors) and funds for Model 2 and vendors (licensors) for Model 3. Negotiated licenses are also required in the NZ to track costs of e-collections for each subscribed library in Model 3 and for one vendor with multiple databases in Model 2.
