[Wactclc-alma] Resource recommender

[Guidry, Wade]

Nicole,

You could try setting up 'custom resource' recommendations, and use permalinks to particular holdings in Primo as links.

You might also be able to leverage tags for similar functionality. As an example, see Green River's tagging:

https://sbctc-greenriver.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/discovery/tags?vid=01STATEWA_GREENRIV:GREENRIVER_V1&lang=en

You could even relabel the "Tags" menu option in the top menu to "Recommended Searches", "Trending Topics" or something similar.

This might be a good discussion topic for next Tuesday's call.

Subject: [Wactclc-alma] Resource recommender

One of my projects this summer is to work on setting up Resource Recommender. I'm not really sure if this is an Alma question or a Primo one, as you configure Resource Recommender in Alma.
I've had initial success in setting up databases, LibGuides and people, but is there a way to connect a random general search (something like "immigration") to resources?

Thanks,
