Rialto Collection Development

The subject area includes folders for project details, project measures, recommendation details, bibliographic details, and physical item details.

The Rialto Collection Development subject area includes folders for project details, project measures, recommendation details, bibliographic details, and physical item details. It also incorporates user and date dimensions for comprehensive reporting. Users can track project progress, measure outcomes, and analyze key metrics, including the number of active projects, recommendations acted upon, and overall workflow efficiency. These insights help ensure alignment with institutional priorities and broader strategies, including shared print initiatives.

This subject area is available to all Alma users with the Design Analytics role.

Bibliographic Details

Ex Libris works with content providers worldwide to enrich the metadata available in the Alma Community Zone. To enrich the journal/serial content in the CZ, we work directly with the Library of Congress CONSER feed for electronic serials, which we match against our knowledge base to enrich with all of the relevant metadata fields that they supply (for more details, see Community Zone Serial Records Enrichment) and enrich the CZ records with all relevant metadata, including the 050 fields (when available).

In the case of book content, we work with multiple providers who are willing to share their metadata with the Alma community globally (for more details, see Community Zone Monograph Records Enrichment). If you have local access to these classifications, you may want to consider working with the local extension for these records whenever an update is not available. (For more details, see Working with Local Extension Fields for Community Zone-linked Records.)

The Bibliographic Details table contains two kinds of fields: those derived from the MARC record and those that come from Alma. Although in analytics there is no distinction made between these fields, for explanatory purposes, we have divided them into two tables below.

The Bibliographic Details table includes all bibliographic records in the catalog whether they have inventory or not.

Classification Dimensions

Dewey Classification

The Dewey Classification is displayed in Analytics in the Dewey Classifications shared dimension, available in several subject areas. Dewey classification information is derived from the bibliographic record in most subject areas, except for the Physical Items subject area, where it can be derived from either the holdings record or the bibliographic record.

From the Bibliographic Record:

For MARC21

Take from field 082$$a

https://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd082.html
For UNIMARC

Taken from field 676$$

There are three levels of the Dewey Classification stored in Alma Analytics. Each level is referred to by a numbered group (Group1, Group2, and Group3).

Dewey Classifications Groups

Using the hierarchy option in this dimension, the user can drill down from Group1 to Group3. In each level, the user can see measures accumulated to the relevant group.

For example:

000 Computer science, information & general works
- 010 Bibliography
- 000 Computer science, information & systems
  - 005 Computer programming, programs & data
  - 000 Computer science
  - 004 Data processing & computer sciences

This is presented in Alma Analytics as follows:

Dewey Classifications

If there is more than one classification code, the last one appears.

LC Classifications

The Library of Congress Classification (LCC) is displayed in Analytics in the LC Classification shared dimension, available in several subject areas. LC classification information is derived from the bibliographic record in most subject areas, except for the Physical Items subject area, where it can be derived from either the holdings record or the bibliographic record.

From the Bibliographic Record:

For MARC21 Taken from field 050$$a. If 050$a has no content, 090$a is used.https://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd050.html
For UNIMARC Taken from field 680$$a

There are five levels of the LC Classification stored in Alma Analytics. Each level is referred to by a numbered group (Group1, Group2, Group3, Group4 and Group5). Using the hierarchy option in this dimension, the user can drill down from Group1 to Group4. In each level, the user can see measures accumulated to the relevant group.

For example:

SF1-1100 Animal culture
- SF87 Acclimatization
- ….
- SF191-275 Cattle
  - SF250.5-275 Dairy processing. Dairy products
  - SF221-250 Dairying

Ex Libris works with content providers worldwide to enrich the metadata available in the Alma Community Zone. To enrich the journal/serial content in the CZ, we work directly with the Library of Congress CONSER feed for electronic serials, which we match against our knowledge base to enrich with all of the relevant metadata fields that they supply (for more details, see Community Zone Serial Records Enrichment). We receive weekly updates from CONSER and enrich the CZ records with all relevant metadata, including the 050 fields (when available).

Classification Code	Classification Code refers to a unique alphanumeric identifier assigned to a specific subject or topic category within the library's classification system. The Classification Code is composed of letters and numbers that represent various facets of a work, such as its subject, genre, or format. For example, in the LC classification "PN1997.2.D56," the "PN" portion represents the general subject area (Performing Arts), and the "1997.2.D56" further refines the classification to a specific work or aspect within that category.	VARCHAR	50
End Range	End Range refers to the concluding point of a designated range within a classification system. The End Range specifies the final classification number or identifier within a defined range that encompasses a set of related subjects, topics, or materials.

End Range Number	The numbers that come after the letter(s) in the end range.	DOUBLE
Start Range	Start Range refers to the beginning point of a designated range within a classification system. The Start Range indicates the initial classification number or identifier within a specified range that encompasses a set of related subjects, topics, or materials. For example, in PS501-689 (Collections of American literature), the start range is PS501. Possible start range values are hard coded to the beginning of LC Classification groups.	VARCHAR	50
Start Range Number	The numbers that come after the letter(s) in the start range.	DOUBLE

Institution

The shared Institution dimension enables the Network Zone to view reports by institution. If an analytics report is run from the Network Zone in a collaborative network implementing a Network Zone, all member institutions are included in the report for Institution Code and Institution Name. If an analytics report is run from an institution that is not part of a collaborative network implementing a Network Zone, only the single institution from which the report is run is included in the report for Institution Code and Institution Name.

Reports involving data across a collaborative network implementing a Network Zone may take longer to run than reports within one institution.

This dimension is available across all subject areas. It contains the following fields:
