360 KB: Springer Nature's Databases: Databases Names Change -- February 2025
What is happening to the names of those Springer Nature's Databases?
The provider Springer Nature has decided to update the following databases names:
| DB ID | Current Database Name | New Database Name |
|---|---|---|
| AFANA | HAS SpringerNature Nature Journals 2022 | Springer Nature HAS Nature |
| AAJSJ | HAS SpringerNature Open Access 2022 | Springer Nature HAS Fully OA |
Therefore, we will be changing those databases names in the Knowledgebase. The content of the databases will also be updated, and their DB ID's , will remain the same.
The metioned changes will take effect on February 27, 2025.
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 February 27, 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 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.
