[Eril-l] Did anyone else notice a load of about 9000 non-English titles added to Ebook Central Academic Complete in September?

[Melissa Belvadi]

For what it's worth, Proquest makes it incredibly easy in their ebook admin
tools to search for books that are "subscribed" and limit to a
characteristic, including language, and then you can email the list to
support to have them "batch" make all of those visible=off.
Sorting through the marc records is another issue though. Can probably do
that with marcedit if your own opac tools aren't good for that.
