360 KB: Springer Nature Consortium Databases from Springer Nature: Database Name Change -- March 2025
What is happening to the names of some Springer Nature consortium databases?
The provider Springer Nature has changed the names of some Springer Nature consortium databases.
Therefore, we will be changing the database names in the Knowledgebase. The content of the databases will also be updated with the latest title lists.
This change will take effect on March 17, 2025:
| DB Code | Database Name Before March 17, 2025 | Database Name After March 17, 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| AGBIJ | Springer Nature Rowan TA | Springer Nature Rowan Reading TA |
| ABAKF | Springer Nature VIVA TA Reading | Springer Nature VIVA Reading TA |
| ACAOD | Springer Nature NERL TA Reading | Springer Nature NERL Reading TA |
| AIGIU | Springer Nature - OhioLINK TA | Springer Nature OhioLINK Reading TA |
| AASML | Springer Nature - BIBSAM TA | Springer Nature BIBSAM Hybrid, Subscription and Fully OA |
Actions you may need to take:
- If you are a 360 MARC Updates client and have requested the custom specification that adds the database names as they appear in the Client Center/Intota to MARC records, you can expect to see some change records when you get your MARC records after March 17, 2025.
- 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 names to function, you should note the change in ProQuest's database names in order to retain the proper relationship/mapping between those tools.
