How can we improve Alma?

← Alma

replace "Do not show as Full Text available in CDI even if active in Alma" with a pair of show local / show CDI checkboxes

To avoid duplicates when we have both local portfolios and CDI records, we can rely on the "Do not show as Full Text available in CDI even if active in Alma".
Enabling this feature will show in Primo local IZ portfolios, and is very good when local records are rich and CZ records are limited/poor.
Sometimes however CDI records are richer and provide indexing at chapter level. In such a case we would like to hide IZ local portfolios and show CDI records instead.
It would be therefore useful and clearer to replace the "Do not show as Full Text available in CDI even if active in Alma" with a pair of checkbox:

show local IZ records YES/NO
show CDI records YES/NO

    this is a solution we would like to see. I'm out of votes but would +3 if I could.

    Can the Show CDI records be more granular? We want to show local IZ records, and show CDI chapter/article records, and hide CDI title records.

    Thank you for this! A straightforward solution to a cryptic and confusing setting.

    This simplification would indeed be very helpful!
