Update: Primo Repository

 

 

 

Anything to report?

  1. The Discovery team will meet on alternating weeks to make room for the Primo Repository Team meetings.
  2. Primo Repository Team will meet bi-weekly.
  3. The Primo Repository Team will use the GitHub to share snippets of code that solve specific problems.
  4. The Discovery group will review and translate problems when turning them into issues for the Primo Repository Team (we won’t have library staff making issues willy nilly, the Discovery team will be the filter for those).

 

3

Update: Mobile Account Screen

Discuss the problem and possible solutions.

 

 

Users have trouble renewing ILLs because Primo requires them to switch between campuses rather than aggregating checked out books in one place. Usability Testing at UCSC has shown that no one figures that out without help.

This becomes worse in Mobile, especially if the drop-down chevron is “hidden” by the library name. A quick solution was to shorten the width of the library name so that it didn’t cover the chevron. But this does not address the ultimate problem with the UX design of the ILL renewal process.

 

All: Reach out to local campuses to see if this issue has been noticed elsewhere.
Jessica will look at SUNY and other consortia to see if they have any solutions.

Update: Full Text Search Toggle

 

 

 

UCD, any observations to report?

Not at this time.

Other

Share other issues that have cropped up at other campuses

 

 

  • Eric Forte @ OCLC contacted UCM regarding the best url to share when surfacing records in Google. He may reach out to other campuses.

  • USCS is testing a solution for excluding other campus' e-books, but it is also excluding DDA books. They are reaching out to Ex Libris for a solution to pull the DDA information back into the search results.
