October 2011

Greetings everyone!

 

 

We have been busy little bees over here at the Cassidy headquarters this past month!

 

We have de-duplicated all of the tens of thousands of HeinOnline records in our database to be able to offer multiple URLs for a single record containing a title found in more than one library. See below for a more detailed explanation!

 

Our Hurricane Cleanup Sale has been extended through October 14, 2011 offering 5% off ANY Cassidy record collection. This discount is applied on top of any consortia discount your library may already receive! Contact us for pricing information.

 

Happy autumn everyone!

 De-Duplicated Records Available Now! 

We have been working diligently at the Cassidy Cataloguing Services headquarters to revamp our database to better serve our subscribers!  In another move to prove that we really do listen to our subscribers' suggestions for improvement, we are in the process of de-duplicating every last HeinOnline record in our database (over 20,000 records)!

  

When we finish the de-duplicating process, our current subscribers will have the option to reload records from any and all collections they have previously purchased with these new, more streamlined records.  Records will contain all of the rich details that they had previously contained, but 856 fields with URLs have been added for each HeinOnline library in which the title is available.

 

For example:

 

The title New York City Law Review is found in both New York Legal Research Library and the U.S. Core Law Journals.  If your library subscribes to both collections through HeinOnline and both record sets through Cassidy, you would have received two separate records.

 

Our new process combines the URLs, and series entries, for both collections onto one record.  If your institution is subscribed to both collections, we will leave both URLs on the record.  If you're only subscribed to one collection, we will remove the URL for the OTHER collection.

  

This process removes the necessity for "Exclusive" and "Full" record sets.  Your institution will now receive all records for all collections without ever duplicating a record.  Previously, the "Exclusive" sets offered only those records for titles not duplicated anywhere else in HeinOnline.  But, if your institution wasn't subscribed to one or more HeinOnline libraries in which the records appeared, it was possible to miss out on a record occasionally.  With the new de-duplication process, there will never be a missed record.

 

We understand that many libraries have done in-house work to the records you receive from us and may not want to lose those changes by overlaying records.  If your library has not made extensive changes, or if you're able to reapply changes to new records, we strongly recommend purging your current Cassidy records in favor of the new set.

 

We are very excited to be able to offer this great service and even more so because we are doing the work at NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE to your institution!

WestlawNext Records

Take advantage of Thomson Reuters' commitment to subsidize the cost for the first 4,000 records!

 

You may remember our first Pioneer Project back in 2006 when we were able to offer 2,000 records of Westlaw and Lexis e-treatise titles for only $2,000.  That collection has grown exponentially in the years since 2006 and those pioneer libraries who purchased the records at their debut ended up with an unbelievable deal, paying only a fraction of their full value!

 

Get in on the ground floor and receive the first 4,000 WestlawNext records for only $2,000 - a mere $.50 per record!

 

We want to help you make the most of your investment!

 

WestlawNext, the winner of the AALL 2011 New Product of the Year award, is an innovative, technologically advanced product which is taking legal research to a new level.  In creating this product, we have discovered a rearrangement of content, title changes and new titles added.  We have also noticed a few instances of content access restriction.  An example of this restriction is the title "International Business Transactions" (Westlaw Database Identifier INTBUSTRAN).  This title was previously available to all academic subscribers, but is now available only to those using WestlawNext.
