This LibGuide provides material to support college library staff with using Alma & Primo.

Overview

The Consortium of Ontario Libraries (COOL) existed from 2001 to 2010 and was a partnership between OCUL, Bibliocentre, and SOLS. netLibrary, then a division of OCLC, was subsequently acquired by EBSCO. Starting in 2024, this collection was migrated from EBSCO to Taylor & Baker's Boundless platform. This collection cannot be a candidate for a NZ Local Collection due to college specific access URLs. 

OCLS has updated the MARC records (COOL IV and VI) up to CLO standard and distributed to subscribing colleges.

OCLS has also created a OCLS COOL Audiobooks import profile shared through the Community Zone for college use.

If you have any questions, feedback on the below instructions or need access to these MARC files feel free to reach out to helpdesk@ocls.ca.
