[Wactclc-primo] Setting up Unpaywall in Alma/Primo

[Herman, Amy]

FYI...

I successfully set up Unpaywall<https://unpaywall.org/> yesterday as a new General Electronic Service using these instructions.  It was very quick and easy. It shows up in the "Links" section of the record. https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Primo/Community_Knowledge/How_to_%E2%80%93_Add_an_Unpaywall_General_Electronic_Service_to_Alma%2C_for_Open_Access_links_in_Primo

However, if it is the ONLY way we have access to an article (not also available in one of our paid databases or in one of our activated open source collections) we are only seeing it if our "Expand My Results" filter is checked, unlike some of the other open access collections we have activated in the PCI.  I'm guessing that has to do with it not really being a "collection" that can be selected in the PCI, but rather a way of accessing open source content?  There has been some discussion about it on the listserv that I didn't fully understand.  If someone has been following the discussion and understands the issues, please chime in!

Some examples of it in action, in our Primo, are:


1.       When we also have it in a paid database collection (EBSCOhost Business Source Complete): "A national methodology to quantify the diet of grazing dairy cows" https://sbctc-olympic.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/permalink/01STATEWA_OLYMPIC/18dmjvi/elsevier_sdoi_10_3168_jds_2017_13604

2.       When we do not have it in a paid database collection but do have it in another activated open source collection (Taylor & Francis Online - Journals - Open Access):  "Methane emissions are lower from reindeer fed lichens compared to concentrate feed" https://sbctc-olympic.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/permalink/01STATEWA_OLYMPIC/18dmjvi/informaworld_s10_1080_17518369_2018_1505396

3.       When it is the only full text option, and can only be found by using the "Expand my Results" limiter: "Transnationalization of teacher education: A new paradigm for Ontario?" https://sbctc-olympic.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/permalink/01STATEWA_OLYMPIC/18dmjvi/proquest2187608476
