Thank you for considering enhancing the linking level.

Thanks for clarifying, I understand your request.
I will check with our linking team if that can be done.
Kind regards,

Hello,
We still haven't found the best way to create the deep links, but we are working with Newsbank to improve the linking.
I hope we will find a final solution soon and release the parser update, we will update this idea once we make progress.
Kind regards,

Tamar, the request is not for CDI coverage. Please modify (or create a new parser) so the linking level for e-collection is article. Currently it is periodical title/journal.
This frustrates our users and librarians to identify an article but not get a link that goes to the article in Alma/Primo VE link resolving.
Thanks for examining this.

The problem isn't finding the article in a PrimoVE search. The problem is that clicking on the link in PrimoVE does not take the patron to the actual article. Instead they are taken to a landing page and have to navigate to the article, which is not intuitive and creates barriers that are unnecessary with current technology levels.
