We recommend a best practice of opting out of the PQIS enrichment process and running the PQIS activation manually after go-live instead. You can activate in bulk by checking the boxes My Electronic Resources by Provider for any collections that aren't already distributed to you from the NZ, and then clicking "Activate Selected."

Alternatively, you can opt into the PQIS enrichment process and clean up the resulting duplication after go-live. Duplication can result if you imported MARC records for the eresource from your ILS, or if the collection is activated and distributed to you from the NZ. If you subscribe to the collection through OCLS, then it will be activated and distributed to you from the NZ unless your request otherwise. You may want to compile a list of duplicated collections in advance so that you're ready to quickly remove them from your IZ after go-live.

Ebook Central (EBC) Activations

As part of implementation, ExLibris activates the EBC integration profile in your IZ, which leads to duplication for any Ebook Central content you subscribe to through OCLS. ExLibris also recommends running the EBC synchronization job daily after go-live. See the EBC section of ExLibris' “Electronic Resource Migration General” article for more information.We are currently looking into how to avoid the EBC duplication problem and will have more information about this soon.

Because the EBC integration profile has ongoing benefits if you acquire Ebook Central titles outside of OCLS, we recommend a best practice of manually removing duplication caused by the EBC integration profile after go-live. You may want to compile a list of collections in advance so you're ready to remove them quickly after go-live. OCLS plans to manage the following Ebook Central collections in the CZ and distribute them to subscribing colleges (unless requested otherwise):

  • Canada Ebook Collection

  • College Complete

  • Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Collection
