    Knowing which Recommender Entries have been used would be hugely helpful -- it would be so great and make so much sense if this could be a part of the Primo Customized Values Usage analytics. I hope, too, that this functionality is already available or being added to the new NDE MixPanel analytics (please!).

    The related NERS request in 2024 was rejected for development in Primo BO or Primo VE with the note: "after careful consideration, we have determined to reject this enhancement due to its complexity and challenges, also in light of the upcoming NDE, we prefer to prioritize it to NDE (rather than Primo BO). We encourage you to resubmit this enhancement again in the future so it can be re-evaluated with the NDE."
    Is this functionality currently being considered for the NDE or will it in fact need to be resubmitted, presumably no earlier than 2026, since the NDE won't be fully delivered in time for NERS 2025.

    This idea seems to be a duplicate with https://ideas.exlibrisgroup.com/forums/308176-primo/suggestions/31656826-combining-searches-from-search-history-into-a-new
    If so, could they be merged to combine votes?

    This proposal was not approved in NERS 2022, but there has also been no update from Ex Libris on this Idea Exchange proposal since March 2020, when additional information was requested. Can Ex Libris please confirm whether more information is still needed, and what the status is? Thanks!

    Are more examples and use cases still needed?

    As a very simple example, I may search for some broad topics, like "therapy dogs" and "stress relief" -- and after searching realize that what I actually want is resources related to "therapy dogs" and "stress relief", especially if I find that I get a great number of results with either single search, possibly including non-relevant results. It would be a great time saver to simply be able to combine these two searches via selecting them in Search History and using a boolean operator. (Alternately, one could also opt to include multiple searches with few results via this method.) An indication of the number of results included in each search result would indeed be helpful, too.

    I found some ProQuest documentation on "How to Combine Two or More Recent Searches" https://support.proquest.com/articledetail?id=kA1400000008WjbCAE that may be illustrative.

    An example of use case is the ability for users to combine their searches in new and different ways; for example, building iterative searches, being able to most efficiently narrow and manage searches. The current functionality mentioned (selecting multiple facets, using advanced search) all require pre-coordination of searching, so a user who wishes to add complexities or refine criteria will always have to re-start the search from scratch. Combining searches is a more sophisticated and efficient and fairly common tool. Are more specific examples required?

    It would be great and very helpful to our users if this enhancement could be incorporated into NDE development.

    From recent testing in our Primo VE instance, it seems like for us the language facet and pre-filter work well enough (or relatively so) with Alma records, but it's CDI where the function doesn't seem to work at all. And of course part of the challenge of troubleshooting in CDI is that we can't see what fields are responsible for a problem. In some records, the CTO suggests that the language value may be coming from a field like rft.place, but in many others, there's no sign of the language being filtered within the metadata or full text. Maybe it's coming from metadata in merged records we can't see? Regardless, this is a major problem for researchers who need to either filter out content they can't read or limit to content within their specific language of choice. Can nothing be done about this? It does clearly seem to be a bug that requires development attention and not suitable for enhancement or idea exchange.

    It is also very difficult for users who may craft an Advanced Search in Primo blended scopes and then use the Newspapers Search facet expecting to send this Advanced Search into Newspapers -- who then find that their search terms have not been passed to Newspapers but instead lead to a blank search box in Newspapers. This illustrates for us that users are trying to accomplish Advanced Searches for Newspaper content, so it would be extremely helpful for this functionality to be supported.

    Here is a correction regarding fields 111 and 711; the Relator term in not in $e for 111/711 as it is for 100/110/700/710 -- for 111/711, the Relator term is in $j. Having said that, I think the most crucial need is for the removal of the $e relator terms from 100/110/700/710. I will defer to others who work more with Conference headings for their expertise on the 111/711 fields. Thanks!

    Alma is a solution for staff, perhaps, but not for end users; their only access is via Primo.

    It was included on this year's NERS ballot but alas didn't make it through; it was not even in top 20. But it is indeed possible in Primo BO with the AVA field, and not possible in Primo VE (which doesn't use that field) so it's a parity issue. Perhaps it could be addressed as such?

    Our researchers are looking for the ability to include call number in the Excel file export, so that they have quick reference to location within the libraries. We would support it being added, based on this user need.

    Any use we can make of ORCID would be of great benefit; this proposal would correct what seems to be a current error that makes the data not really usable.

    Hi,

    This is to update that this issue is still not planned to be developed in the current road map. We will continue to evaluate it for a future release.

    Therefore we are keeping this under "Under review" status.


    Best regards,

    Yael.

    Is there any update on the status of this request? We're wondering about the "Under Review" notation before we submit NERS request for 2023. Thanks!

    Boosting newer and especially the current edition is really needed -- institutions are trying all sorts of work arounds to make these editions more prominent for users (ex: added to Resource Recommenders). A simpler and more comprehensive approach would help the users greatly.
