Once the NoveList integration configuration is complete, a cron task will take care of uploading to EBSCO the required title data from the library's catalog. At one point, this process was a manual process where data had to be exported from the library's ILS. The novelist_update script now takes care of that automatically. Do be aware that the script only runs once a week, early on Sunday, by default. You can change that in the /etc/cron.d/circulation cron file; if so, schedule the upload during off-peak hours to minimize service impact.
