    Following a search in the library’s discovery interface, the patron can select a link that navigates to the Rapido discovery to get a Rapido offer.

    Selecting the link leads to the Rapido Get it from other locations.

    Rapido

    For the discovery interface to link to the Rapido offer, it must send an OpenURLto Rapido, with the metadata of the search result. The OpenURL must be in the following format:

    https://<Rapido_domain>//discovery/openurl?institution=<Rapido_institution_code>&vid=<View_code>?{OpenURL body}

    Where the base URL includes the following elements:

    • Rapido_domain – Specify the domain for your Rapdio server.
    • Rapido_institution_code – Specify the institution code defined in Rapido.
    • View_code – Specify the code of the view. This is always the Rapido institution code followed by RAPIDO_SA_VIEW. For example: 01MY_INST:RAPIDO_SA_VIEW.

    Example of a valid OpenURL:

    https://MyInstitution.rapido.exlibri...sn=&title=From depression kids to cold warriors : constructing American boyhood through Hollywood films in the postwar years, 1946-1951 / Peter W. Lee.&volume=&issue=&date=20170101&atitle=From depression kids to cold warriors : constructing American boyhood through Hollywood films in the postwar years, 1946-1951.&spage=&pages=&ID=doi:&id=pmid:&sid=EBSCO:MyInstitution University Library Catalog&au=Lee, Peter W.
