    360 KB: IGI Global: Databases Name Change -- August 2022

    What is happening to the name of some IGI Global databases?

    The provider IGI Global has changed the names of some IGI Global Advanced databases.

    Therefore, we will be changing the database name in the Knowledgebase. The content of the database, and the database ID ([DBID]), will remain the same.

    This changes in the databases names will begin on  August 17 and will continue until it is finished:

    List of the databases to be renamed is here.

    Actions you may need to take:

    • If you are a 360 MARC Updates client and have requested the custom specification that adds the database name as it appears in the Client Center/Intota to MARC records, you can expect to see some change records when you get your MARC records after [effective date].
    • If your library uses a third-party service (such as EBSCO A-Z, etc.), custom scripts to manage data, or other non-ProQuest tools that require the database name to function, you should note the change in ProQuest's database name in order to retain the proper relationship/mapping between those tools.
