360 KB: databases from EBSCOhost: Database Name Change -- December 2024
What is happening to the names of EBSCOhost databases?
The provider EBSCOhost has changed the names of the databases.
Therefore, we will change the databases' names in the Knowledgebase. The database content and database IDs will remain the same.
This change will take effect on December 30, 2024:
Database Code | Old Database Name | New Database Name |
---|---|---|
EABDJ | Australia_New Zealand Points of View Reference Centre | Australia_New Zealand Points of View Reference Source |
PKX | EBSCOhost Canadian Points of View Reference Centre | Canadian Points of View Reference Source |
LCRDH | Literary Reference Center Main Edition | Literary Reference Source Main Edition |
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 December 30, 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.
