Good morning
I recently received a notice from Ebsco about a new (?) service--Faculty Select--an
interface to access open textbooks. Perhaps this is related?

I wonder if the collection in EBSCO’s holdings management index just needs to be updated
with the new and/or alternate title. The BC Open Textbook Collection has 273 titles. The
record for OER discipline guide has a URL of
https://open.bccampus.ca/find-open-textbooks/?uuid=64a1891e-b85d-40f2-9043-…amp;subject=.
I am not seeing a record for OER by Discipline Directory.

Hi Martin,
We recently change the name and cover for this resource (on May 13/19) from OER by
Discipline Guide to OER by Discipline
Directory<https://opentextbc.ca/oerdiscipline/>. Perhaps this is the reason for the
two numbers.

Amanda,
I have no idea what the Faculty Portal IR is either, but the record is for the OER by
Discipline Guide in our EDS:
[cid:image001.jpg@01D536FB.5B69F6E0]
Searching either accession number yields the same record above, and the accession number
indicated in the record is edsbcc.bcotA000246. I would guess the “correct article” is the
above record. Unfortunately, two people who deal with our systems and databases are on
vacation this week, but a third may be able to shed more light on the question later today
if no one else weighs in.

I’ve never heard of a Faculty Portal IR with ebsco. I’ve tried to find something online
and am coming up with zero.

Hello Amanda,
I received the message below from EBSCO and thought it might be from or for BCcampus. The
only additional information I got from them was it was initiated from “Faculty Portal
IR”.
Apologies, if this isn’t concerning you.
Regards,
Korinne

Hi,

We recently received a service issue for BC Open Textbook Project as the titles are same
with different Accession numbers “AN edsbcc.bcotA000246” & “AN edsbcc.bcotR000246”
If you could please let us know what the correct article is, so we can resolve this
service issue, we’d appreciate it! Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Dan
