The book I ordered for the library in Aspire does not link to Primo - how do I fix that?
When a book is ordered by AU library staff, a record appears on Primo in readiness for the arrival of the book.
You can use the following instructions to link a book on Primo to a record on an Aspire reading list whether the book has arrived in the library or not.
- Visit Primo
- Find the book you have ordered and click on the title
- At the end of the URL of the page you are on, type &showPnx=true and press Enter
- From the page that appears copy or make a note of the mms (or lds29) number
- Sign in to Aspire ( How do I do that? )
- Visit the appropriate list
- Open the record you want to link to and click Edit Metadata
- In the Lookup menu select LCN , paste the mms number into the box and click Lookup
- Click Save
Links to library holdings will now show in the Aspire record whether the book has arrived or not. Physical books on order normally show as On loan; sign into Primo to see more details.
