[Wactclc-primo] [External] New Primo Permalink Structure

[Herman, Amy]

I would guess that the links changed with the new UI.  Cohort 3 has always been on the new UI, and I don't remember our URLs looking like anything other than the 2nd one.

I found this in documentation which indicates that the URLs did change but they anticipated and redirected the old ones:

Subject: [External] [Wactclc-primo] New Primo Permalink Structure

Hi all,

I apologize if I missed something, but was there an announcement about changing the structure of the Primo permalink?

Last November, I grabbed this permalink for the book Hidden Figures: http://pierce-primo.hosted.exlibrisgroup.com/PIERCE:EVERYTHING:PIERCE_ALMA2119058240002818.

It still works, but now the permalink in the record looks like this: https://pierce-primo.hosted.exlibrisgroup.com/primo-explore/fulldisplay?docid=PIERCE_ALMA2119058240002818&context=L&vid=PIERCE&search_scope=EVERYTHING&tab=default_tab&lang=en_US.

I checked the UW and theirs looks the same with the extra search scope and language added on.

I was working on some website changes and our WebUpdates team asked, "All of the links seem to go the search page, then to the catalog entry, which means you see a couple of different pages load when you click the link. Is this the most direct link we can use? Or is there a way to link more directly to the catalog item so you skip the search page?"

PS: I tried just deleting everything after &context, but that doesn't work.

Thanks!
Lesley
