Include the 776 field in ISBN matching when deduping books
Deduping of books would be improved if the deduping algorithm included the 776 field in ISBN matching. Currently, the algorithm only checks the 020 field for ISBN. In many cases, an electronic version of a book has the print ISBN in the 776 field, which would allow for a match of the electronic 776 to the print 020. The February VE release included an improvement that allowed the 776 field to be used when matching journal ISSNs, but it is still not being used when matching book ISBNs.

one-click-unsubscribe link for saved searches emails
saved search emails that are send on regular basis should include a link to quickly unsubscribe from the alert.
It is a common and userfriendly practice to include unsubscribe links in newsletters so they wont need to login to their account to change this. Email alerts may be annoying to the patrons in case of shifting interests unsubscribe/subscribe easily will uplift the usage of this particular service.

Ability to load citation styles written in Citation Style Language
Three of the most popular reference managers (Zotero, Mendeley, Papers) accept new citation styles written in Citation Style Language (http://citationstyles.org/developers/) without needing developer intervention to add them. If Primo's action let each library customize which citation styles they would prefer that would be a huge boost to both Primo's functionality and open standards.
