Metadata Management
Import Profiles
In some situations, metadata for electronic collections is not available in the Ex Libris Central Discovery Index (CDI) or in the Community Zone (CZ), making certain resources undiscoverable in Alma and Primo VE. In other cases, there may be metadata in the CDI or the CZ that do not meet college needs. To solve this problem, libraries must load vendor metadata to the Network Zone or the Institution Zone. This is done by creating a Local Electronic Collection in Alma to house inventory, known as portfolios. Once the local electronic collection is created, an import profile is then used to create inventory by loading MARC records obtained from vendors.
The eResources and Acquisitions Subcommittee has identified a list of collections that are not available in the CDI or in the CZ. The Subcommittee has also identified a short list of priority collections. OCLS will maintain the metadata for this select list of collections in the Network Zone. You can learn more about this service on OCLS Managed Collections page of the OCLS Services for Page 1+ Guide.
