"Show Source Record" to users with Alma Staff Role only
Although we can now display the MARC record in the UI using the "Show source records" we feel this feature is only really useful for Library staff and not for the vast majority of users who will not find it useful and will just add clutter to the full record for the majority. Ideally we would like the "Show source records" to be linked to the Alma library staff role so it will only display when our library staff are logged into Primo.
Currently the only option to display this link in the UI is to have it appear for everyone. We would like the ability to configure this link in a similar way to how we can configure other links in the UI (such as the General Electronic Services links) using service availability rules.

> "Show source records" to be linked to the Alma library staff role
This would not work for us, our patron accounts and the staff accounts are separate.
But I agree that the 'show source record' link should have more flexible settings. It should be possible to decide per view to show it separate from the other links (= show it at the end of the full display, while the other links stay higer up) or hide it.

Gabriele Hofler has created a great bookmarklet for the New UI which shows the Source Records. Your staff could then activate it on an as-needed basis, and not clutter up the display for users. Details here: https://developers.exlibrisgroup.com/blog/New-UI-Bookmarklet-Show-RecordID-PNX-Source-Record
