 Management of content in EDS means balancing the combination of EBSCO published (EBSCOHost) and non-EBSCO published metadata. EBSCO "​manages"​ metadata and access issues in the same way that ExLibris maintains the back end, but we still have to activate targets to create access. Enabling metadata in EDS follows a three step process that must all be completed for something to be correctly searchable. Once something appears in your CORAL queue then you can start the process of enabling metadata. Management of content in EDS means balancing the combination of EBSCO published (EBSCOHost) and non-EBSCO published metadata.
