Combine permalinks with citations in Primo
In Primo, the ability to copy citations is very useful, as is the ability to copy permalinks for individual records. When helping a patron via virtual reference (chat or email), it is cumbersome to, first, open and copy the citation, and second, open copy the permalink. It would make more sense to either hyperlink the citation with a stable link, or include the permalink after the citation in the same window.

Numerical order for Search by list
We would like the list search in Primo to show the results in numerical and not just alphabetical order.

Thank you and good day.

It would be useful to have a way to indicate AI Generated Resources in the metadata and to have a filter in Primo and/or have a way to easily identify them as AI Generated material.

Today the documentation states: “The elements of the query… are classified by the AI system, which uses this information to generate the basic Boolean query and then expands it using related concepts to create six permutations of the basic query. The permutations are used to generate an…

Primo - "related titles sorted alphabetically by title" also for Primo direct / classic not VE
In Primo VE one can have related titles sorted alphabetically by title
This is particularly useful for multipart, journals, and in general complex record structure. Unfortunately, this is possible only in Primo VE, but not in classic Primo.
It would be useful if the 2 versions of Primo were aligned also regarding this very useful feature.0 votes -
Allow hosted Back Office sites to use their own XSL transformation routines in data sources
Primo documentation describes using XSL transformation routines to apply changes to records ingested to Primo from external sources (https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Primo/Product_Documentation/Primo/Back_Office_Guide/050Pipe_Configuration_Wizard/040Configuring_Data_Sources) but hosted sites are not able to see details of existing routine files or add their own.
We would like to be able to add our own transformation file to handle a specific issue with harvested OAI metadata. Please make this possible or at least document the existing transformation routines so that we can see what they do.
