Electronic Resources Committee Minutes May 14, 2005
Attending: Marty Kurth, Steve Rockey, Scott Wicks, Ed Weissman. Guest: Michael Engle.
1. Find Databases access to titles in Oxford Reference Online and Xreferplus
Michael Engle, the selector for Oxford Reference Online and Xreferplus, joined ERC for a second time to discuss adding records for the individual titles in these two resources to Find Databases. ERC recommended that all Oxford Reference Online and Xreferplus titles be added to Find Databases by the beginning of fall semester, whether Find Databases resides in ENCompass or the Innovative Interfaces ERMS product at that time. Because of its concern about the size of the "Almanacs, Dictionaries and Encyclopedias" subject category in Find Databases, ERC recommended that the OPAC Team review the Find Databases categories before Find Databases migrates to ERMS.
