    360 KB: Smithsonian Global Sound from Alexander Street: Database Name Change -- November 2023

    What is happening to the name of database Music Online: Smithsonian Global Sound?

    Provider Alexander Street is launching a second volume of Music Online: Smithsonian Global Sound. Therefore, we will be updating the existing Smithsonian Global Sound database name in the Knowledgebase. The content of the database, and the database ID (RGR), will remain the same.

    This change will take effect on November 16, 2023:

    • Before November 16: Music Online: Smithsonian Global Sound
    • After November 16: Music Online: Smithsonian Global Sound, Volume 1

     

    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 November 16, 2023.
    • 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.
