[Eril-l] Open Access titles in EBSCO Full Text Finder

We are implementing EBSCO Full Text Finder (switching from Proquest 360
Link). When I had EBSCO configure my initial holdings I said “yes” to
including open access titles. Now I am finding that having all of those
titles activated is making it difficult for me to check for errors in the
titles I have activated. There is no way to “flag” a package or title as
open-access within FTF. I can probably deal with the complete packages that
are open access, but EBSCO has activated individual titles in packages
where I have a specific number of titles for which we have subscriptions,
and having those extra titles activated causes confusion.



How have you dealt with this issue? Am I the only one finding it to be
confusing?



Thanks.
