The Central Discovery Index (CDI) is a searchable index of citations collected from scholarly e-resources including journal articles, e-books, legal documents and more. They are harvested from primary and secondary commercial publishers and aggregators, and open-access repositories. By default, CDI will try to return only results that are accessible to the patron--either available online through your library or open access, or in print in the library based on your local subscriptions or subscriptions that PASCAL provides to member libraries. The Central Discovery Index works with Alma to deliver full-text via the link resolver. Libraries can choose which collections to activate/deactivate in the CDI. When a CDI collection is activated or deactivated, it takes about 72 hours for the changes to appear in Primo.
