360 KB: Few Jstor databases from Jstor: Databases Names Change -- August 2024
What is happening to those Jstor databases names?
The provider Jstor has decided to change the name of a few databases.
Therefore, we will be changing the databases names in the Knowledgebase. The content of the databases, and the databases ID, will remain the same. as you can see in the following table:
Those changes will take effect on August 31, 2024:
| Current Collection Name | New Collection Name | DB ID |
|---|---|---|
| JSTOR Arts & Sciences I | JSTOR Arts & Sciences 1 Current Legacy | JAS |
| JSTOR Arts & Sciences II | JSTOR Arts & Sciences 2 Current Legacy | JAC |
| JSTOR Arts & Sciences III | JSTOR Arts & Sciences 3 Current Legacy | JAT |
| JSTOR Arts & Sciences IV | JSTOR Arts & Sciences 4 Current Legacy | JAV |
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 August 31, 2024.
- 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.
