    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, and if you have requested the custom specification that adds direct URLs to MARC records, you can expect to see some change records when you get your MARC records after February 20, 2022.
    • 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.
    • Make sure that either https://customer.janes.com or *janes.com is included in your proxy configuration before February 20, 2022.
