EBSCO MARC Updates™
EBSCO A-to-Z is designed to provide comprehensive access to a customer's list of e-content, regardless of vendor or where the content is hosted. Many libraries use a list of resources like EBSCO A-to-Z as a supplement to the library catalog. Some also want to include this information in their online catalog, but the ever-changing nature of e-content makes manually cataloging the titles impractical. Even with vendors who provide MARC files and lists of titles with links, creating an automated process for loading these files is daunting. EBSCO offers a solution by adding a MARC record service.
EBSCO MARC Updates customers can elect to receive a MARC file of their electronic holdings on a monthly basis. This service acts as a single, comprehensive source of MARC cataloging that allows libraries to easily include virtually all their e-content in their catalog.

- Save staff time through the automation of catalog maintenance
