[Wactclc-alma] Configure in Alma? Amazon and Table of Contents links in Primo "Details" tab

[Guidry, Wade]

The links to Amazon in Primo are part of the normalization rules configuration (to which we do not have direct access, as Total Care customers) as described here:

https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Primo/Product_Documentation/Interoperability_Guide/040Linking_to_Delivery_Systems/100Amazon

I suspect you will want to keep the Amazon cover art display active.

So, the decision point is whether to have the Amazon TOC and Amazon item links fixed (if there is a problem), or have those links disabled in your Primo instance.

A Salesforce case will be required in either case.

Nicole, I would suggest opening an SF case, providing an example (send them a permalink to the record), indicate that the TOC and/or Amazon item links are not working. And whether you would like to disable/remove them, or have them work properly.

I can tell you that, within the Alliance, discovery interface links to for-profit vendors like Amazon were generally considered bad form, and were disabled by institutions.

Subject: [Wactclc-alma] Configure in Alma? Amazon and Table of Contents links in Primo "Details" tab

I noticed today that the "Table of Contents" and "This item in Amazon.com" links in the Details tab in Primo return an "item not found" error.
I was wondering if this was configurable in Alma, or if it a something I would have to put a SalesForce ticket in for.

In Alma, I am able to configure that general electronic services, but this shows up in a different location.
I just wanted to tap into the collective knowledge, and see if anyone knew a solution.

Thanks!
