- OCLS: extract patrons from Sirsi in UTF-8 format
- College: review extracts before submitting for migration
- Note to ExL : When we do the patron extract again from SIRSI, I will be expecting to see bad diacritics for older records. At Go-live, we will import only active patrons from SIS to Alma. The diacritics seem to be ok (currently being tested). NO ACTION needed.

OCLS Assistance with P2E (For Colleges to Complete)
Do not include collections in P2E that will be activated by other means. See the Troubleshooting e-Resource Duplication Issues note for more information.
Use the table below to identify collection titles that can be extracted in batch by OCLS for your P2E files. Include information OCLS staff can use to identify the collection records.
...
Collection Title
...
Collection Identifier (For example, 996=Curio, or 856=https://www.nfb.ca)
...
Indicate if this collection is a Database or Portfolio
...
Publications du gouvernement du Canada
...
856=https://www.publications.gc.ca
...
Portfolio (these titles are e-portfolios) They should all be under that collection.
...
Cantook
...
996=Archambault
...
Portfolio (these titles are e-books/portfolios. Part of the Cantook e-books collection.
Note to Jennifer : 2 important notes :
In Alma, from test load, these portfolios are identified as book-electronic (which is fine). Right now, when clicking on the holdings (electronic (1) ) the collection name is always the title of the book. This seems ok but shouldn’t it be the collection title Cantook (or I think I had put Archambault in my original P2E) ?
Also, in Primo, these e-books are identified as Database. This does not make sense to me. I know Primo codes differently it seems, but these are identified as e-books in Alma. They are part of a collection (Cantook). We don’t subscribe to the whole database (basically Cantook is the interface where the books are housed). We buy a certain number of the e-books - it’s kind of a selective package. Not a database. I don’t understand why every e-books show as Database.
