Find records by record numbers
It would be nice to be able to search for records by a record number. Such numbers are usually noted in the 035 Fields. for example: an OCoLC number such as o3639596 or the institution number (CLSU)966634-01, or any other number that might be in the 035 that is useful.
11 votesOCLC numbers from 035 are already indexed and searchable out of the box. Libraries can define to index additional record ID’s if needed as well.

Allowing patrons to create more than one favorites list
I've had patrons want to create more than one list in Primo based on the topics they are searching. While they know they can add tags, they really preferred the idea of having multiple lists.
1 voteThis request can be achieved by organizing the saved records by Labels, we support Add by labels and Filter by labels.

Stop matching records with 020 subfield z
As part of a matching process Primo checks the 020 subfield z, which in MARC format is used for Canceled/invalid ISBN, to display two records as related. That means Primo shows the holdings of the "related" record in the full display of the first record. For a user the holdings will be on the record with invalid ISBN. Very confusing. We've been adviced to delete the ISBN in 020 z or move it to 776, which is a very bad solution. I advice ExLibris to get rid of this solution and not violate the standards of MARC.
