[Wactclc-primo] [External] RE: Local subject headings not appearing in Primo VE

I see the same behavior here, Elena.  If I do a plain old keyword search for the subject heading wording, and limit my results to Available in the Library, I find the books with our 690.  But if I do a Subject Browse, or a search limited to Subject, for the subject heading wording, it doesn't show up.  One of our examples is "Thomas Graham Library Collection Endowment"

Hi Wade:



I thought that was the case, too, so I was surprised when the browse by subject didn't work. One example of a location subject heading is SVC authors. The other is SVC Staff Training Collection.

Elena,



Looks like we set up the 690 in your Primo VE as a local field, and it is set to be searchable.



But I don't know off the top of my head if that includes by keyword *and* browse indexes.



What's a good example of a local subject at SVC?

Elena, I just went into "Manage display and local fields" in Discovery configuration and I see that Wade had added a custom field to display for us, which happens to be 690. Here are some screenshots of what it looks like.  The two tabs, plus the normalization rule that was added on the second tab.  I hope this helps.  If not, I'm sure Wade can help out!

Subject: [External] [Wactclc-primo] Local subject headings not appearing in Primo VE



I just noticed that I can't do a subject browse for our 690 local subject headings. I swear this used to work in regular Primo. Do I need to switch something over in Alma to get these to show up again?



Has anyone else had this problem or know of a fix for this problem?



Thanks!



Elena
