360 KB: Reference Center databases from Ebsco: Database Name Change -- November 2024

What is happening to the name of database Reference Center databases?

The provider Ebsco has changed the name of some Reference Center databases to Reference Source databases

Therefore, we will be changing the database name in the Knowledgebase. The content of the database, and the database ID, will remain the same.

This change will take effect on December 5th, 2024:

Database Code	Database Name Before December 5th, 2024	Database Name After December 5th, 2024
6.P	Poetry & Short Story Reference Center	Poetry & Short Story Reference Source
PSSRC	Poetry & Short Story Reference Center eBook Collection	Poetry & Short Story Reference Source eBook Collection

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 [effective date].
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.
