    Question

    How to enable Z39.50 search in Alma? What information to give to external contacts?

    Answer

    These are the elements which enable z39.50 search in Alma:

    Server: euXX.alma.exlibrisgroup.com (for the European region) or naXX.alma.exlibrisgroup.com (North America) or ap01.alma.exlibrisgroup.com (for the APAC region)
    Port:1921
    Base: your institution code

    No authentication needed, unless specifically defined in: General Configuration Menu > Integration Profiles > filter to Type: Z39.50 Server
     

    Port 1921 should be open for the whole world.

    Note: euXX and naXX should be replaced by your correct environment, e.g. eu01 or na02.
