Special handling in HOLLIS for Lamont, Docs, Mic, & Poetry locations
- Corinna Baksik
Background on the Lamont consolidation project:
Historically each of these collections was treated as a "library" in Aleph, even though they were all in the same building and shared a circ desk. With the migration to Alma, all collections were merged into the Alma "Lamont Library" holding/item code in the spring of 2021, to streamline circulation and fulfillment activities. In order to minimize changes on the HOLLIS side, special Primo configuration was introduced so that each collection is still a separate "library" in HOLLIS in the facets and search limiters.Â
