20 Same guidelines as e-journal A-Z lists Limited customization (header/footer)

21 KBUpdate reports ExLibris will be changing the maintenance scripts so more than 3 weeks of data is retained Two sessions (LANL and MIT) How to manage weekly reports? HTML vs TXT reports

22 LANL Hints Use TXT reports Maintains separate spreadsheets by active targets for each KBUpdate Reorder information for ease of use (ie thresholds Add notes when maintaining KB Always look at Delete Object Portfolio Especially for pick and choose targets

23 LANL Troublespots Lines blurring between Open Access and licensed content Multiple targets for the title Global threshold closed What happened to the title?

24 MIT approach Library staff want to view KBUpdate reports as EXCEL not text Don’t always remember to protect the OBJID when converting from txt to xls

25 MIT Wrote PERL scripts to do conversion Insert object type (Book; Journal; etc) Color code to highlight changes Different conversion rules for New; Changed and Deleted reports Will share scripts via EL Commons

26 CDL approach ? What can the CDL do to help the campuses deal with the weekly KBUpdate reports?

27 Q&A Q: Have any campuses activated ebooks in UC-eLinks? A: Yes, including CDL who has activated all packages we license including IEEE, Springer, Wiley. Q: Who needs to be involved in rolling out the new ebook search on campuses? A: campus e-resource team will select ebook packages to include (e.g., ILL staff, reference librarians, e-resource librarians, public service staff). Library webmaster will determine where the search lives on the library website. CDL will work with Ellen Meltzer and the UC-eLinks project team to make sure the word gets out to the UC-eLinks liaisons and other campus stakeholders.
