Moving to Primo VE in a Multilingual Environment
Event part
Conference
Abstract
Transforming from PrimoBO to PrimoVE presents challenges. While the overall concept of simplification is welcomed, institutions accustomed to flexibility and customizability in BO may find stricter limitations difficult. This is amplified in a Multilingual environment, where flexibility is needed to accommodate various languages and alphabets, and to provide patrons constructive search and filtering options, along with consistent and logical display.
The presentation reviews hurdles encountered during a GoVE process in a Multilingual environment. It addresses applying customized normalization rules of display fields to all languages; authority records with multiple preferred terms; directional predicaments stemming from the need to support RTL and LTR simultaneously; and distinguishing configuration of facets and full display. The objective is to share both issues that have been resolved, or a workaround has been found to deal with them, and those which continue to present a challenge.
