360 KB: Springer Nature Databases: Databases Name Change -- Feburary 2025
What is happening to the name of Springer Nature databases?
The provider Springer Nature has changed the names of several databases.
Therefore, we will be changing the database names in the Knowledgebase. The content of the databases, and the database IDs, will remain the same.
This change will take effect on February 28, 2025:
| Database Code | Old Database Name | New Database Name |
|---|---|---|
| DCLSP | SpringerLink Protocols 2024 | Springer Nature - Springer Protocols 2024 |
| AMIHV | SpringerLink Protocols 2023 | Springer Nature - Springer Protocols 2023 |
| ABZDO | SpringerLink Protocols 2022 | Springer Nature - Springer Protocols 2022 |
| UBGTT | SpringerLink Protocols 2021 | Springer Nature - Springer Protocols 2021 |
Actions you may need to take:
- If you are a 360 MARC Updates client and have requested the custom specification that adds the databases 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 February 28, 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 databases name to function, you should note the change in ProQuest's databases name in order to retain the proper relationship/mapping between those tools.
