    I realize this is quite an old idea, and not specifically related to Primo VE, but for Alma/Primo VE/CDI, the addition of the Open Access facet SHOULD have done this. But oddly, links from open access records do not display to users unless an associated portfolio/collection has been activated in Alma. So the article-level open access status is shown to users, but they can't get to the content. Attached is a screenshot documenting that problem.

    I appreciate the Anonymous commenter (2020-07-20)'s description of the GPO record set overwhelming local results. However, without the record set being available as a CDI source, institutions cannot make the choice to include them without going through separate and time-intensive MARC loads. I would like to see GPO content available to activate in CDI, optimistically trusting that Primo's relevance ranking and facets will appropriately surface local records.

    Agreed, this is an essential part of link resolver usage statistics, and was part of our previous OpenURL vendor's reporting.

    This isn't a thing? For all of the video platforms where titles are licensed for 1-3 years, each of which has a different start date, this is vital functionality!

    This would be very valuable. We need to be able to create a set of physical items based on ID matches that only exist in the Title record. Thanks to Sam Nesbit for sharing one workaround, however ridiculous it is. Solutions that require multiple edits to a record and exporting and reimporting from an external system (across multiple days) should NOT be the expected workflow.
