    360 KB: Knovel General Engineering and Engineering Management Library databases from Knovel: Database Name Changes – Oct. 2014

    • Product: 360 KB

    What is happening to the names of the Knovel General Engineering & Engineering Management Library databases?

    The provider Knovel has changed the name of their General Engineering & Engineering Management Library databases.

    Therefore, we will be changing the database names in the 360 KB knowledgebase. The content of the databases, and the database IDs, will remain the same.

    This change will take effect on October 21, 2014:
     

    Database ID Database name before October 21st Database name after October
    21st
    KXU Knovel General Engineering & Engineering Management Library Knovel General Engineering & Project Administration Library
    JM8 Knovel General Engineering & Engineering Management Library - Premium Content Knovel General Engineering & Project Administration Library - Premium Content
    KT4 Knovel General Engineering & Engineering Management Library - Academic Collection Knovel General Engineering & Project Administration Library - Academic Collection
    KT5 Knovel General Engineering & Engineering Management Library - Academic Collection - Premium Content Knovel General Engineering & Project Administration Library - Academic Collection - Premium Content


    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 to MARC records, you can expect to see some change records when you get your MARC records after October 21st.
    • If your library uses a third-party service (such as SFX, EBSCO A-Z, etc.), custom scripts to manage data, or other non-Serials Solutions tools that require the database name to function, you should note the change in Serials Solutions' database name in order to retain the proper relationship/mapping between those tools.
