Package Names

General formatting

Package names in GOKb should follow the general format:
{Content Provider}: {Package name}

...

Package Name: This is the name of the package as given by the content provider in the original source. If the original source contains a year in the package name, you should retain the year information in the same format as the provider's naming convention.

Creating a package name

If the content provider does not assign a name or uses a name that is too vague to be useful, you can construct a name yourself. You will want to consider including the following elements:

...

Year should appear as the last part of the package name. The year should define the content of the package as it was sold during a particular year (NOT the year the package file was created).

Package name examples

Elsevier: Freedom Collection

...

Taylor & Francis: Environmental Science Backfile

Sage: All Journals

Project Names

General formatting

Project names should follow the general format:
{Content Provider}: {Package name}: {YYYYMMDD}

...

An exception to this rule occurs when a project contains multiple packages. In this case, you can replace the package name with a more general indication of what the project contains. (E.g., "all packages," "subject packages.")

Cambridge University Press: All titles: 20130101

Wiley-Blackwell: All packages: 20140530
