Recommendation
We do not recommend a public-facing consortial consortia union view for the network zone.
Reasoning
Local campus instances have all desired needs and features; consortial a consortia union view would be redundant
Simplifies user experience - can use one interface for all needs
Additional reasoning included in Pros/Cons table below
...
Local campus Primo VE instances can allow the discovery of records and holdings across the NZ and facilitate requests for resources via the DiscoveryNetwork search profile (aka Discovery Network Scope). ExLibris technologies also provide the option to create a Consortia Union View; a view created at the network zone level that provides a “neutral view” that can include consortia specific branding. The union view provides no additional functionality for staff or end-users.{Include SCREENSHOT}
...
UCS Network is the working name for the Discovery Network Scope
Proposal: Discovery FG should make a recommendation on whether or not a Consortia Union View should be created for the UC Libraries based on evidence (stakeholder interviews, end user needs and workflows, etc.)
...
Need to give groups adequate time to prepare for a consortial consortia union view. As the recommendation is not to have a consortial consortia union view, there are no dependencies based on this decision.
