Questions and Discussion
Consortial Record Management for a Demand Driven Acquisition E-book Plan: The Experience of VIVAAnne C. ElguindiAssociate Director, VIVA
What is the Virtual Library of Virginia (VIVA)?• 74 academic libraries (39 public, 34 private, Library of
Virginia).• Large range in FTE, from Liberty University with 56,000 FTE to
the Institute for the Psychological Sciences with 74 FTE.• Diversity of purpose, including doctorals, four years, two
years, and specialized institutions.• Central funding provided by the Commonwealth of Virginia,
additional cost-sharing by members.• Grounded in the coordinated collection development of online
resources and an extensive resource sharing program.• No standardization of library systems.
VIVA Member Institutions
Technical Services within VIVA• Coordinated Cataloging Subcommittee
• Evaluation of Springer and Elsevier e-book records• Evaluation of DDA e-book records and procedures
• Knowledge Base Maintenance• WorldCat Knowledge Base (WCKB)
The WCKB within VIVA• Resources have been mapped from the VIVA vendor and
product to the WCKB collection and provider.
The WCKB within VIVA• The central office has selected collections shared by the public
institutions. Some collections are standard and some are customized for the consortium.
The WCKB within VIVA• Some institutions prefer a global sharing relationship with
VIVA.
The WCKB within VIVA• Some institutions only share at the collection level.
Challenges with Consortial DDA
• Not all publishers want to participate.• The models vary.• It is difficult to convey the subtleties of DDA to a wide
population.• Record management issues are amplified.
DDA within VIVA: The Profile• Ebook Library (EBL) is the VIVA vendor• Publishers: Wiley, Oxford University Press, McGraw-Hill UK,
Jossey-Bass, Sage• STEM-H books only, based on call numbers• $250 list price and under• Published 1/1/2012 or after• English language only
• Initial de-duplication with Safari Tech Books
DDA within VIVA: The Budget• The 39 public schools are participating through central
funding, starting at $100,000 for the pilot project.• 13 private institutions opted in to the project with an
additional shared $24,000.• The project started in late May 2013, and, as of 6/28/13,
$1,977 in short term loans had been spent.
DDA within VIVA: Record Management• Why manage through WCKB? It enables:
• Delivery of customized MARC records to each library, including new records, updates, and deletes.
• Setting holdings in WorldCat.• Unpurchased books set for CH$ (VIVA’s central OCLC holdings
symbol) • Purchased books set for all participating libraries
• Discovery through WorldCat Local.
DDA within VIVA: Record Management
EBL OCLC VIVA
MemberInstitutions
DDA within VIVA: Record Management• Two collections in the WorldCat knowledge base are used to
manage the records: one for unpurchased books, and one for purchased books.
WCKB: General Settings for Libraries• Set up your OCLC symbol and proxy.
• Add viva for the EBL Library ID within the provider-specific settings.
• Set the global Enable MARC Record Delivery setting to Yes.
WCKB: General Settings• Customize all records to include a KB Collection Level Note in the
740$a. At this point other local customizations may also be made.
WCKB: Collection Settings
• Within the collection properties, a note is added to each collection.
• DDA collection
• Purchased titles collection
WCKB: Collection Settings
Things to be aware of• If you plan on sharing other collections, consider a global
share. Once a library selects a single collection, they cannot switch to a global share without first deselecting that collection.
• Have member libraries check for other collections that may be enabled for MARC record delivery before turning on the global setting.
• Keep the delay in record changes in mind – they must come from EBL on a set schedule, and they take a few days of processing at OCLC.
• If you want to delete a shared collection, you must ask all institutions with an active share to deselect it first.
Pros• Alison Bobal at EBL and Sara Finch at OCLC are fantastic!• The process allows for wide distribution of records as well as
local customization.• There is a low burden on the consortium’s central office once
the program is up and running.
