360 KB: Some TAEBDC Databases from Various Providers: Database Names and Provider Names Change -- November 2023

What is happening to the database and provider names of some TAEBDC databases?

TAEBDC databases from the various providers are named incorrectly.

Therefore, we will be standardizing the database and provider names in the Knowledgebase to match the rest of TAEBDC databases. All provider names will be changed to the consortium 臺灣學術電子書暨資料庫聯盟 (TAEBDC), and the database names will be modified to match the other existing TAEBDC databases. The content of the databases, and the database IDs, will remain the same.

This change will take effect on November 21, 2023:

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 21, 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.
