Related titles in Primo VE records display: separate window
When records have bib-to-bib relationships via 8XX (or 7XX), the list of related titles is displayed in the Details section of the series/host record. Unfortunately, the list is currently sorted alphabetically by the title, which is very user-unfriendly with a large number of linked titles.
This behavior has already been criticized in this idea. Unfortunately, it is still not possible to sort the related titles logically by sequence or volume.
The Austrian Library Association (OBV) uses Primo BO and has implemented a user-friendly solution for displaying related titles:
In the case of multi-volume works and series, the individual volumes are displayed via a link in a separate window. There the volumes can be sorted by publication date, relevance etc.
Example: Opere di Francesco de Sanctis, https://permalink.obvsg.at/AC01614297
Austria is working with PLK fields for their solution. During the publishing process from Alma to Primo, the related records are added as PLK fields to the source record. For an example, please see here the source record for Opere.
In Primo VE we would like to be able to add the relationships to the source data set, as it is the case in Primo BO with the PLK fields.
