Answer (2/16/2020): We are adding the CDI fields to Alma Analytics so you will be able to select by type of collections and whether they are in CDI or not. The development is not yet done, this is planned to be added in May so will not be available immediately but soon after you are enabled with CDI. Documentation with more details on the fields etc. will become available upon release. (per Christine, 2/6)

Answer (2/11/2020): You mean when you are going live with CDI? Yes, if you are all registered under the same customer then you need to go live together. You can either agree on a date or you wait until the general switchover when we automatically switch all to production in July/August. About the EasyActive – currently all institutions in a consortium (connected to one Alma network) need to be on the same setting. We did have some requests to provide an option for individual institutions in a consortium to move to EasyActive but nothing definite. Do you already know which institutions would choose EasyActive as opposed to the Fully Flexible setting? |

Answer (1/30/2020): Records with different ISSNs are not merged. Were you thinking of a specific use case? It does not seem likely that there are records for articles that are exactly the same but have different ISSNs but I can check to make sure if you have an example or a specific use case. Follow-up question: If ExL will be merging records according to ISSN, what happens to records that shouldn’t be merged together? Like a bibliographic record for a print journal linking to a CZ e-portfolio Answer (1/31/2020)We are not merging CDI records with records from the CZ, or other records that you create locally. Also, CDI indexes articles rather than journal records. |
