    360 KB: ProQuest Digitized Newspapers: Database Name Changes -- July 2019

    What is happening to the names of the ProQuest Digitized Newspapers databases?

    The provider ProQuest has changed the names of the ProQuest Digitized Newspapers databases.

    Therefore, we will be changing the database names in the Knowledgebase. The content of the databases, and the database IDs, will remain the same.

    These changes will take effect on 16 July:

    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 16 July.
    • 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.
