Add a “Scholarly” Search Results Facet
Adding a "Scholarly" search results facet to Primo VE or the future NDE, in addition to the existing "Peer-Reviewed" facet, would be beneficial, similar to Summon's “Scholarly & Peer-Reviewed” facet.
Not all peer-reviewed articles are scholarly, so having both facets would enable users to refine their searches according to their specific needs.
This shouldn’t require huge effort since Summon is also an Ex Libris product, and resources for implementation should be readily available.

Ulrich's determines whether a journal is scholarly through a combination of publisher self-reporting and independent research by the Ulrich's Content Operations team.

I think this would be very confusing. Who decides what "scholarly" is?
