Question:

What is the Bibliographic Rank which appears with our Alma records in the repository search results and how can we use it?  In our search results it states what the Bibliographic Rank is for each record and we do not know what it is or if we can use it for something?

Answer:

The Bibliographic Rank is a rank on the "quality" of the record based on various parameters.
