GeoRef Open-Access Journals / Series Collection Update.

Ex Libris is reaching out to the provider regarding a database-level issue with the GeoRef Open-Access Journals / Series collection in 360KB. The database has not been updated since 2020, and customers have requested an update to include missing journals. Upon review, Ex Libris identified a discrepancy in the title count: the platform lists 759 titles, whereas the Knowledgebase currently contains only 247 titles. To ensure alignment, Ex Libris requests the provider for verification of this data and an updated title list.

The provider has suggested that customers inquiring about the updated serials list can visit the following website: https://information.americangeosciences.org/georef/serials-list. However, due to system limitations, the provider is currently unable to allocate development resources to produce a data file, as certain required fields outlined in the Ex Libris Content Submissions Guide are not available. As a result, Ex Libris and the provider have decided to change this collection from a full-text collection to a zero-title database.

• Name: GeoRef Open-Access Journals / Series
