In order to maintain accurate and authoritative provider metadata (based on the Knowledgebase collection policy), 13 titles will be removed from Institutional Investor Journals database in the Knowledgebase on August 12, 2019. (NOTE: The database code for this database is RJV.) Therefore, we have created a new database in the Knowledgebase.  These 13 titles are now available in IPR Journals.The database code for this database is BRVUP.

This change will take effect on August 12, 2019:

• Before August 12, 2019: Institutional Investor Journals
• After August 12, 2019: IPR Journals, database code BRVUP

Action you need to take:

• Update the holdings in your Intota or Client Center profile by subscribing to the new database instead of the old database.  For information on how to update your profile, and considerations prior to removing the old database from your profile:
