[Eril-l] Check your Alexander Street Press MARCs

[Ethan Fenichel]

Agreed! I've found problems, too and have asked they continue to maintain their old site until they resolve them. They've assured me they'll be resolved but not that they'll maintain the old site.

This message is for customers with access to resources on the search.alexanderstreet.com platform who regularly download MARCs from http://alexanderstreet.com/marc.

In two days (June 2, 2017) the http://alexanderstreet.com/marc  will no longer be updated with new MARC records.  Instead, customers will need to get their records from the Alexander Street Press Admin Portal.  The MARCs on the portal should be customized to your account.

We have found that the MARCs downloaded from our Admin portal are for titles we should not have access to, or duplicates of records we received 3 years ago, or  have other issues.   If you have not already checked how the new site is working for your account, you may want to take a minute to look at it.

If you are having problems like we are, please ask ASP to continue maintaining  http://alexanderstreet.com/marc  until the issues with institution specific MARCs has been resolved.     Email can be sent to support at alexanderstreet dot com

Thank you,
