Bibliographic record
Abstract
As the successor to the Canadian Electronic Library, Canada Commons aims to continue as a source for Canadian e-books and government and policy documents. Holdings include over 19,000 e-books, and indexation and linking to over 133,000 publications. The Canada Commons interface has a simple, appealing design that does not overwhelm the user. Built using Coherent Digital's Commons Platform, it is nearly identical in design and functionality to the company's Policy Commons database. Given the limited number of products geared for the Canadian library market, Canada Commons provides access to Canadian e-books, government and policy documents that users will not get in Gale OneFile: CPI.Q or ProQuest Canadian Business & Current Affairs (CBCA), both of which are standard databases in most Canadian academic libraries. Canada Commons will appeal to public, academic, and corporate library users.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
