    Aim: To create a clickable link that will display for users in the Public Notes section of a records holding information

    Please note: this information is accurate for Alma MT environments 

     

    Screenshot from Primo with the clickable link in the RTA

     

    In the public note field of the holding record (for example MARC field 866 $z) enter your text with HTML insertions for the link

    For example:

    Request from <a href="insert URL" target="_blank">Document Delivery</a>

     

    Screenshot of HTML link in 866 $z of an Alma holding record

     

    Here is an example of a normalization rule using this code.

    In this example we are updating the link in the public note field.

    when

    (TRUE)

    then

    replaceContents "866.z.Held in Storage. Request from <a href=http://www.rmit.edu.au/library/dds target=_blank>Document Delivery</a>" with "Held in Storage. Request from <a href=https://www.rmit.edu.au/library/borr...ivery-services target=_blank>Document Delivery</a>"

    end
