[Wactclc-primo] Link from Primo to ProQuest search interface?

Hi, All -

We recently reviewed a list of most-searched-for terms in Primo, and found out that one of the highest ranked terms was "ProQuest".  Our students seem to be thinking they can get to ProQuest directly via Primo.  While we would prefer they used the database page if they want to search ProQuest alone, we also would like to make a ProQuest record available that will allow them to click through to the ProQuest databases.

I believe it's possible - the UW catalog does it.  https://alliance-primo.hosted.exlibrisgroup.com/primo-explore/fulldisplay?docid=CP71178638620001451&context=L&vid=UW&lang=en_US&search_scope=all&adaptor=Local%20Search%20Engine&tab=default_tab&query=any,contains,proquest

Does anyone else? And can they tell me what we need to do in Alma to make this happen?

Thank you,

Laura Staley
