Review Person Entity Feature in UTL Primo Sandbox


Primo Sandbox environment

ExLibris documentation

Summary of features and concerns

  • Primo list-serv discussion in last month or so includes concerns about:
    • records with authorized LC headings not displaying any LOD person functionality as expected
    • For prolific authors, Titles in Library By feature displays more titles where author is contributor than is creator (algorithm issues, sorting "by Date" isn't panning out well)

Any specific testing folks would like to do?
