SFX KBAB
The SFX Product Working Group met in Berlin during the IGeLU 2013 conference to discuss our goals for the year 2014.
At IGeLU 2013, an SFX Knowledgebase Advisory Board (KBAB) was formed as a joint initiative of IGELU and ELUNA to advise and work with Ex Libris on issues relating to the quality and consistency of the SFX CKB.
The KnowledgeBase Advisory Board has submitted an initial list of topics to the SFX Product Manager.
Checklist for contentproviders
SFX PWG is pleased to introduce a new checklist that may be helpful when talking to new content providers about adding their resources to the SFX KnowledgeBase.
The document is designed to help content providers understand the requirements for linking via SFX. The checklist was produced in collaboration with ELUNA and Ex Libris.
You can find the checklist on the Documentation Center under SFX > Technical Documentation > KnowledgeBase Information.
