360 KB: Revues.org from OpenEdition: Database Name and Title-Level Linking-Syntax URL Change -- December 2017
What is happening to the name and the title linking syntax of database Revues.org?
The provider OpenEdition (PRVGXL) will be changing the name of the database Revues.org (XN9) in December 2017. The title-level linking syntax for titles will also be changed.
Therefore, we will be changing the database name and the title linking syntax in the Knowledgebase. The database ID (XN9) and the content of the database will remain the same.
This change will take effect on December 14, 2017
- Database Name before December 14, 2017: Revues.org
- Database Name after December 14, 2017: OpenEdition Journals
- Title-level linking syntax before December 14, 2017: http://[journal title id].revues.org
- Title-level linking syntax after December 14, 2017: http://journals.openedition.org/[journal title id]
Actions you may need to take:
- Make sure that either http://journals.openedition.org/ or *journals.openedition.org/ is included in your proxy configuration before December 14, 2017.
- If you are a 360 MARC Updates client and have requested the custom specification that adds direct URLs to MARC records, you can expect to see some change records when you get your MARC records after December 14, 2017.
- 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 14, 2017.
- 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
