Linked Open Data - Discovery of Person Entity

From Ex Libris Release Notes:

...

Additional Documentation: Wikidata

Ideas Exchange: Enable person entity functionality at the view level

Discussion

UCR: Would like to know what value it gives to the user. Is there an impact to search results (does it create lag)?

UCD: Have it turned on in the sandbox. Haven’t noticed any specific lag but that’s hard to tell in the sandbox. The way it’s laid out now it drops you into a different UI. Questions about how it’s calculating things. Haven’t asked Ex Libris any specific questions yet.

UCSD is looking at it more next week. UCR has it on the things to look at list.

Support Discovery of Local Authority Records

UCR: Very disappointed it’s only local authority records. Felt it shouldn’t have go live without LC being supported. Special collections have asked for better ways to search for collections by donors. Maybe use local authority files for that. So, might be able to leverage this after all.

Add "Exclude CDI Resource Types" Option to CDI Scopes

UCR: Potentially could be useful to reduce duplicates but would need a lot more testing.

Analytics Improvements (NZ)

...

In Alma Analytics, staff accounts in the Network Zone can access all of their member institutions' data, but they could not do so in Primo VE Analytics. With this enhancement, the NZ can view their member institutions' data in Primo VE Analytics for all Subject Usage areas.

Discussion

CDL Observations:

  • Currently, we only see the new-to-Alma campuses at the NZ level (presumably this is a bug)

  • The new Design Analytics Limited roles (Designs Analytics – Resources, etc) do not have access to Primo Analytics. (Weirdly, they also don’t have access to the Shared Community Folders in regular Analytics. I’m not sure if this is by design or not.)

Examples of things one

  • Usage of top menu links

  • What user groups and the actions they’re used.

  • Zero searches and popular searches

  • How are people coming into Primo (doesn’t include IP addresses)

Let Gem know if you’re interested in doing any UC-wide reports and we can try them out and see what they look like.
