Slack/General Questions

5

• Jackie pointed out there’s a Primo July 2024 Release changelog!

• UCR: Advanced Title Search issues with the 505t surfacing higher than expected.

• UCSB: Heads up - issue with citation for Chicago style of citations. Had to replace with the latest style because the other was deprecated. Kept citation values from SILS migration and the labels were out-of-date with what was actually being used. https://gitlab.com/ucsb-library/alma-primo/-/issues/2

  • Question: Is there every a reason to show older citation styles?

    • No one has requested going back to the old style at other campuses.

    • Usually people are instructed to use the latest citation style.

We will add this to the campus configuration.
