How can we improve Primo?

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".
(thinking…)

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can support and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can support it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

  1. Update default Chicago/Turabian citation style in Primo to current 17th ed.

    Chicago/Turabian citation style 17th ed. was released in 2017, but only the 16th ed. is available as a citation style. This is one of the most common citation styles in use, and Primo should offer the current version as a default option.

  2. Ability to load citation styles written in Citation Style Language

    Three of the most popular reference managers (Zotero, Mendeley, Papers) accept new citation styles written in Citation Style Language (http://citationstyles.org/developers/) without needing developer intervention to add them. If Primo's action let each library customize which citation styles they would prefer that would be a huge boost to both Primo's functionality and open standards.

  3. Session timeout 'Keep me alive' customization

    Right now, Primo is only set to have a 30 minute window before the 'Keep Me Alive' timeout feature appears.

    As someone who uses this button frequently, it would be nice if we could customize the amount of time Primo allows before this 'Keep me Alive' button appears (ie 60 min. 6 hours, 12 hours, etc.) in the BO somehow.

  4. Searching in Collection Discovery (New UI)

    Searching within a collection (or across collections) would be extremely beneficial to the user experience.

    This is especially true for digital collections that hold a large number of items, or have significant descriptive metadata in the item record.

  8. Add AMA (American Medical Association) as Citation Style

    Currently, the Primo Action functionality allows for APA, Chicago, and MLA citation styles. In order to benefit students of Medicine and Science, we would like to add AMA (American Medical Association) as a possible citation style.

  9. No way back to original/seed article when using either the new Citations or Cited By buttons

    The pages a user reaches when clicking either the new "Citations" or "Cited By" buttons do not provide any way for user to get back to the original/seed article. Making users rely on the browser's back button is not user-friendly.
