Background and Recommendations

Decide to migrate e-book e-resources/collections from SFX or migrate e-book bib records from library catalog and link to the NZ Master Record.  How the e-book collection is migrated will affect the display in Primo search results.  Also how the items are edited and maintained will be affected by the type of record in Alma.  Also determine continued use in Alma, use the e-books records available from the vendor or OCLC, import the records into Alma and created a local collection or use the CZ collection.  All of of the shared e-book targets will be migrated from SFX for libraries to use if they decide not to use the vendor or OCLC records.  These migrated targets will be linked to the CZ collection and updates to the collection will be automatic.
