Remove identical links in Summon results for eBooks
eBook titles that have a MARC record in Library Catalogue are duplicated in the Summon results as a single result entry with 2 links.
Advised by technical support that this is the current design, case response below. The two links (particularly in the new interface with dropdown is an extra step for users).
"ILS gets one record by 360 MARC update service and ILS sends the record to Summon.
Accordingly, the link URLs are same, however, Summon thinks there are two link candidates after M&M, one is from ILS, the other is from Ebook Central. Currently, this is a design."
See attachment for example display.

We've complained about this so may times. Really annoying.
