E-book Batch Loading Update

E-book batch loading has continued at a fair clip in Cataloging & Metadata Services. New collections added in the last year include: MIT CogNet & Synthesis Digital Library (science & engineering); U.S. Congressional Serials Set (government publications); Springer e-books (multi-disciplinary); Sage eReference, e-Duke Books Scholarly Collection, and several collections from Adam Matthew and Alexander Street Press (humanities & social sciences). In numerical terms, just the new collections named above totaled over 341,000 records, not counting regular additions to ongoing collections. Additional collections are also on the way, notably in Government Publications.

Questions about e-book batch loading should be directed to Michael Dulock.
