====== Open Access E-Journal (and E-Book) Activations ======

**THIS PAGE CONTAINS OUTDATED INFORMATION AND IS ARCHIVED**

The following notes cover what open access (OA) e-journals (and e-books) e-resources staff make available through our SFX and OCLC knowledge bases and how they are doing this. OA e-journal MARC records for our UMA catalog are generated through the SFX knowledge base. Activating OA e-books and e-journals also enables linking from our [[http://sfxhosted.exlibrisgroup.com/umass/az|E-Journals List]] (e-journals only), abstracting and indexing databases and View Now links in UMA WorldCat. The workflows continue and work together with [[http://www.library.umass.edu/wikis/acp/doku.php?id=e-resources_cataloging_instructions_for_free_internet_resources|free resource cataloging procedures]] in BAMU.

===== Guidelines for OA e-journal activation: =====

  * Requested by selector via form (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1M_6__F1CcrvK99Qt768y9olYYXUy_BE1iEZCl8nhjgU/viewform) and received from BAMU e-resources cataloger
  * Publisher title that comes to attention of acquisitions staff w/in context of publisher package and/or supports a UMA subject discipline
  * Selected established, reliable and actively managed OA collections of scholarly content.

===== Workflow for individual OA titles: =====

  * Upon receipt of request or publisher announcement, check if title has been cataloged to DP by any of the Five Colleges. If so, notify selector and do nothing else.
  * If not, activate in publisher (vs. platform or miscellaneous) open access or free target (SFX) and collection (OCLC KB). Do NOT activate in publisher subscription target.
  * If an object is available in SFX but there’s no publisher OA target, add object to misc OA e-journal target. 
  * Add internal note to object portfolio (SFX) or staff note (OCLC KB) with source/rationale for selection, date and initials. Review dates will be subsequently added.
  * Note on requested free resource list whether the object type will generate a MARCIt record.  OA SFX targets are included in MARCit record loads to UMA ALEPH ADM.
      * Types that generate MARCIt records are:
           * Journal, 
           * Conference, 
           * Newspaper, 
           * Series, 
           * Transcript, 
           * Wire. 
           * Database?
      * Types do **NOT** generate MARCIt records are:
           * Book, 
           * CD, 
           * Dissertation, 
           * Document, 
           * Manuscript, 
           * Proceeding, 
           * Report. 
           * Database?
  * Select “Maintain WorldCat Holdings – Use institution setting” and “ILL allowed – No” for collection in OCLC KB.
  * If access exists in HathiTrust, do not catalog.
  * Do not add order records, or delete any existing order records, for any title available only as OA.
  * OA selected individual titles will be reviewed on an annual basis within package review procedures.
  * Note: Jim Kelly does not wish to be notified.

===== Workflow for selecting OA Packages in EDS/HLM: =====
  * Unordered List Item
