Exclude online material
Many library users want to search for print material and not the online material. We want to be able to exclude the online material. Right now you can choose to search print material that is available on the shelf, but doing that you miss out on the titles that are out on loan.

Our Library has decided to activate in Primo Central Index (1) resources that are free to all users in search and delivery as well as (2) resources that are restricted in delivery but not restricted in search. As there are new collections added to PCI from time to time, in order to save manpower, is it possible to configure our PCI to automatically activate all newly added resources that either have no restrictions at all or is restricted for delivery only but not restricted for search in our production PCI and staging PCI?

A-Z eBook functionality (similar to eJournals A-Z + databases A-Z)
We're in the process of implementing Alma/Primo (at present we're Summon clients). Per Inna Ilinskaya, there is no equivalent ejournals/databases A-Z functionality for ebooks in Primo. This is something that our users have become accustomed to in using Summon. Inna recommended that we post this as an enhancement.

Change the record ID methods for Tags and Basket
For Tags and Basket, the records ID is the dedupmrg number for merged records. We want to use the individual record ID for the group.
This will ensure that records will allways be pointing on the right record even the all records are deleted and reloaded. The dedupmrg number is different whe we reload all records.1 voteHello All,

Sorting in My Bookshelf
Currently My Bookshelf doesn't offer any functionality to allow you to order items.
It would be useful to be able to order items e.g. by Title, Author, Added, Type etc.

Have the ability to configure the Display Interface Display Logic label to display if an item is loanable, library use only, etc based on the patron who logins in or a guest viewer.
Currently by default the labels will show 'loanable' in the Display Interface Display Logic configuration. It's only possible to configure the label for all guests.

Add Jump to Last & Specific Page Options to Primo Search Results Paging Bar
Our users are asking for the option to jump to the last page of the search results in Primo. They would also like to get to a specific page number in the Primo search results paging bar by typing the number in there. First and last page options are basic functionalities of pagers and users expect those.
301 votesThis idea was reviewed and discussed in the past also as part of the NERS evaluation. In the last few years we did few improvements to the pagination area to increase the visibility of the results. We do support now option to jump to specific page number up to the limitation of number of results to show, however the ability to jump to the last page is not in our roadmap.
therefore we have decided to close this idea and release your votes.

Adding reset button to the volume filter in the GetIt tab
The filter in the GetIt tab allows users to filter the display of the volumes by year, volume or description.
It would be helpful to add a reset button that will reset the values chosen and display all values available.
Currently, in order to reset the values in the fields chosen the patron must click on the arrow for the drop-down menu of each field (year, volume, description) and choose the value ALL23 votesHello All,

German search character conversion - combined vowels representing umlauted letter as well as umlauted letter
In German, an "umlaut" over a letter can be represented with the two dots over the letter, or as a vowel combination, e.g. Anfänge or Anfaenge. If the user searches any of these (or just the un-umlauted letter), we'd like them to see results that contain all the variants.
Ex Libris investigated the configurations for character conversion in searching/indexing, and suggested filing a Primo enhancement:
" it is not currently possible to convert ü into u and also into ue. This would be an enhancement request. "
Which we will do, but wanted to float it here also.

[Primo] - allow to set up a default view, i.e. the landing view for the user when view ID is missing or mistyped
Right now the 'default' view in Primo is the 'out of the box' view, named 'default', which is normally used as template by user for creating the View actually in use. And that's fine.
But the customer should be allowed to define which view sahll be used as default View in the Primo instance. Current feature "Session timeout URL" is not enough.
- In case for example of mistyping the URL, the system leads to the 'default/otb' view.
- If a View is deleted but a user has a bookmark, again the system leads to the 'default/otb' view.It should…

Allow Lateral Links to Perform a Browse Search
Our library consortium would like to have the links in the details section of the record display bring the user to the browsable index. That way, if a record has a subject of "Library catalogs", the user would get a list of clickable subject headings with subdivisions so as to either find more records with the same subject or records with a more narrow focus:
Library catalogs
Library catalogs and readers [see Library catalogs and users]
Library catalogs and users
Library catalogs and users--Australia--PErth (W.A.)
Library catalogs and users--Bibliography.
Library catalogs and users--Case studies.
