[Wactclc-primo] AccessScience (McGraw Hill Education, LLC.)

[Guidry, Wade]

Since it's a monolithic database collection, no way to selectively activate content, unfortunately.

You could add a public note to the Alma collection, saying something to the effect that "Some content in the AccessSciences may not be available to Pierce College"

That's a pretty nuanced bit of information for many users, I realize. But maybe better than removing the content all together.

Hi all,

Just curious how many of you have AccessScience activated in your PCI/Alma.

We do and last week we found some records from AccessEngineering in our Primo.

You can see that despite metadata that says "AccessEngineering" and a link to the AccessEngineering Library, the Source clearly says "AccessScience."

So we're trying to decide if should just deactivate this collection in PCI/Alma, rather than get results that we don't really own. The flipside is it would take actual AccessScience results out of Primo as well.

Anyone else struggled with this decision?
