Based on whether a particular title is not held by your institution, the Purchase Request Form appears as a service for the title on the Full Display page. In addition, Primo VE enables you to add a link to the Main Menu to enable users to make a purchase request for any title by filling in a blank Purchase Request Form.

Selecting the link opens a blank Purchase Request For. For guest users, the system first prompts the user to sign in before displaying the request form.

For information on how to customize the form, see Configuring Request Forms for Primo VE.
