Here's the short answer...

There is a 'Films on Demand' import profile available in the community zone (Screenshot below), that you can copy down and tweak for your own environment.

The import profile will take a set of MARC records (from Films on Demand), load them, and create an electronic portfolio for each record, based on the 856 in the MARC record.

Before importing records like this to create a local collection, I would recommend first creating a local electronic collection, so that you can add the portfolios to the electronic collection as part of the load process. Having the records in a collection.

That's not a full step-by-step, but gives you an idea of the process. But it's not much different than importing any set of records into Alma. You just create portfolio records during the import, instead of holdings or item records.

Feel free to post follow-up questions to the list.

For example, I'm not sure if there's anything special you have to do to obtain FoD MARC records, or are they just out there for anyone to download (and obviously, you'd want the records just for the titles to which you are subscribed.)

Thanks for that question, Nicole. I would like to do the same for Skagit, so any advice would be appreciated!

I'm forwarding the following message from Nicole to the list, as it got bounced on its initial delivery:


This summer I hope to get our Films on Demand records into Alma. I know that several schools have already done this, and I was wondering if you have any workflows or notes about your process that you'd be willing to share.

Thank you,
