Possibility to disactivate related link to physical holding (based on ISSN) for articles
On Primo VE, when a CDI record contains an ISSN that matches physical holdings (ie. the catalog contains a physical version of the journal that contains this article), it will automatically add on this record a GetIt section with the related physical holdings.
Example:
This can be disturbing for the user (and even for librarians), as the get it section shown for this article record contains all the issues in the holding associated with the ISSN, and not only the one containing the article. When the library detains many items in the related physical holding, it doesn't help much finding the corresponding physical item, and add a lot of additionnal information on the record, that is not always useful for the end user.
We would like to add the possibility to disactivate this automatical link in Alma (with an opt-in/opt-out option), as I imagine it should be really complicated to indicate only the item corresponding to the issue in the getIt section.

Unfortunately, I can confirm this, even with deduplication turned off

This is bad.
The patron is looking at an article from 2014, and gets shown the print locations for 2003-2010.
Have you tried getting this treated as a bug?
(I won't see your reply here, but you should have my email)

And on this example, the physical holdings doesn't contain the volume 45.
