Confirm Central Discovery Index (CDI) Records in OneSearch

The CDI electronic collections configured in the Network Zone (NZ), should be tested for discoverability in OneSearch.  

• CDI records should appear 48-72 hours after activation.
• CDI collections have DBID's listed in the electronic collection details page.  
  • Those managing CDI collections will need to login to the NZ, using the CDI user login.
• The CDI DBID's do not appear in Network tab in the Institution Zone (IZ).
• This same verification can be performed for Institution Zone (IZ) CDI collections.

Below are instructions to verify CDI records for a specific collection are appearing in OneSearch:

1. Find the CDI collection DBID by searching e-collection name in the NZ instance:
