SFX
Primo uses the OpenURL (version 1.0) link syntax to resolve links for electronic resources from SFX, MetaLib, and CDI.
Define the SFX base URL per institution and include the server IP address, the SFX port, and the instance name. For example:
http://library.needle.edu:9003/needle
By default, SFX has two sources for Primo: PRIMO and PRIMO_JOURNAL. There are two sources because SFX checks the date of the article against the threshold for articles, while for journals SFX does not do this. The PRIMO source is used for articles (and other part resources) and PRIMO_JOURNAL is used for journals.
The default list of templates includes four OpenURL templates:
-
Openurl_journal – OpenURL for the PRIMO_JOURNAL source. This is generally used for the secondary GetIt! link (additional services).
-
Openurlfull_journal – OpenURL for the PRIMO_JOURNAL source, including the full text defined as the requested service. This OpenURL is typically used for electronic journals that can be accessed by the user and remote search resources with full text.
-
Openurl_article – OpenURL for the PRIMO_source. This is generally used for the secondary GetIt! link (additional services).
-
Openurlfull_article – OpenURL for the PRIMO source, including the full text defined as the requested service. This OpenURL is typically used for online articles that can be accessed by the user.
In addition to these templates, there are two default templates, Openurl and Openurlfulltext, which are set up for the PRIMO_JOURNAL source.
The sfx_base is taken from the institution of the user.
