April 5, 2022 - Primo VE CDI multiple link configuration, streaming media discussions, physical circulation trends<https://libguides.bigbend.edu/c.php?g=1230655>

This is in the notes, but on the Swank question, here's how someone on Alma-L reported handling the expiration of individual portfolios:

     As a less-than-ideal workaround, assuming your portfolio doesn't have coverage dates, you could enter an end coverage date and use it as an active until date. This will be visible to users in Primo, but that might be ok or even desirable, if you want your users to know when access will end. This is what we do for streaming video titles that are leased for a limited period of time. We only do this for streaming video, which normally don't have coverage dates, so it works ok for us, and I made an Analytics report showing all our streaming video portfolios and their coverage dates that we use to see which portfolios are expiring soon.
     I know this is hacky, so feel free to disregard this if it won't work for your situation, but I thought I'd share it in case it could be helpful!
