[Wactclc-primo] Primo full record - conditional links section based on source type/availability

For that use-case, I'd suggest adding a public note to the electronic collection.

I'd try either as straight text:

For help on ebooks: http://www.mylink.com

or as an HTML coded link.

<a href src=http://www.mylink.com>for help on ebooks</a>

I don't know what linking options that field might support, but I believe one or the other might work for you.

Good thought, Wade.  The link would be for general help with ebooks (how to navigate, how to download..etc.)

Not possible, but you could just qualify the link, with something like " - applies only to ebooks"

What would the link be for?

Dear Primo Hive Mind,

Does anyone know if it is it possible to create a conditional rule to display a link in the links section of a full Primo record depending on source type = book and availability = online

For example, we want to create a link that would show under the links section for ebook records:
https://sbctc-greenriver.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/permalink/01STATEWA_GREENRIV/6ir5n3/alma993474867802812<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsbctc-greenriver.primo.exlibrisgroup.com%2Fpermalink%2F01STATEWA_GREENRIV%2F6ir5n3%2Falma993474867802812&data=04%7C01%7Cjrohan%40greenriver.edu%7C5a196e59943944ada2b108d9996f3085%7Cfa40663e972749789bce776cf824bca5%7C0%7C0%7C637709525115065965%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=BNGzkhkdApoeHr7W8IU%2BwnGs%2BxSv%2BlOyP41%2FwuKfRUo%3D&reserved=0>
...but would NOT show for physical book records:
https://sbctc-greenriver.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/permalink/01STATEWA_GREENRIV/6ir5n3/alma991481423402812<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsbctc-greenriver.primo.exlibrisgroup.com%2Fpermalink%2F01STATEWA_GREENRIV%2F6ir5n3%2Falma991481423402812&data=04%7C01%7Cjrohan%40greenriver.edu%7C5a196e59943944ada2b108d9996f3085%7Cfa40663e972749789bce776cf824bca5%7C0%7C0%7C637709525115065965%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=wAye9o6Vld12JDeiDwlMe6PCEBGizT5AZ0UMlhYUxEE%3D&reserved=0>

I do not see this conditional rule option under General Electronic Services, so it is likely not be possible, but I thought I'd check to see if there was a workaround for this or another creative way to do it that I am not thinking of...

Thank you for any advice you have,
