[wactclc-alma] [EXTERNAL] - JSTOR electronic collections

[Cain, Amanda]

I am worried about the gap, but if you anticipate more problems if you don't do it the "cleaner" way, then maybe we could put some kind of notification on the homepage?

Since my library is now doing the new JSTOR pay-one-price community college model, rather than our previous 6 individual JSTOR collections, I need to update my activated Electronic Collections.  I can see the new one that I should most likely activate: “JSTOR Archival Journals and Primary Source Collection” (4496 portfolios) as that’s the exact name of the collection on our new invoice.  I also need to deactivate the 6 individual JSTOR collections I currently have activated.  My question is… is there a preferred order for doing this?



Should I activate the new collection first, and then once it’s working, deactivate the old ones?  Or should I deactivate the old ones before activating the new one?  That seems cleaner but I’m worried that we’ll have a gap in which nothing from JSTOR will show in Primo… I also can’t remember how long it takes for collections to deactivate, and activate, for Primo…!



Thanks!
