Session Description
This presentation will explain how Northeastern University set up Primo’s Virtual Browse feature to include electronic resources. The default set-up for Virtual Browse only includes print books, which resulted in a large portion of Northeastern’s library collection to not be viewed through this feature.
The presentation will discuss the procedures involved in customizing and testing the Virtual Browse feature, including tips and best practices. It will also explain the normalization rules for those with a non-technical background. Lastly, it will discuss the limitations of the feature.
