A Digital Theatre+ Collection is published to the Community Zone for Alma users and Digital Theatre+ provides COUNTER 5 reports via SUSHI
Digital Theatre+ transfers the USA MARC records to Ex Libris on the first day of each month. Once processed by Ex Libris, these records are available as a full collection in the Community Zone. There are no packages within the collection.
