I know it's not Primo, but we do something similar with Summon. We wrote a custom script which outputs some XML which Summon reads, and then renders the availability. The script can take one, or several Koha BIB IDs. If you look at: http://herts.summon.serialssolutions.com/#!/search?ho=t&l=en-UK&q=perl%20cookbook You'll see the functionality/script in action. The first item in the list has a "Book" field which says: Available, 005.133 CHR, College Lane LRC, Main Shelves (+3 More) Clicking on (+3 More), shows all the availability. Under the bonnet it's using the output from this: https://library.herts.ac.uk/cgi-bin/koha/UH/rtasummon2.pl?bibids=119683 The BIB IDS can be separated by a colon, so to get the "real time availability" for two BIB IDS you would call: https://library.herts.ac.uk/cgi-bin/koha/UH/rtasummon2.pl?bibids=119683:2777...

Hi Paul I do not know how they have achieved that, but I can imagine is something very similar to vufind (opensource discovery) Do you know Vufind? it is the same index the content and with the info indexed the system is able to check in real time the holdings and the availability. In vufind there are two connectors, one usins ILS-DI and the other using mysql connect Do you wish more info on Vufind in order to compare?

Hello,

I'm trying to understand what can be done on Primo, regarding the link with Koha.

It seems that the University of Tyler, TX has succeeded to display the availability of a document on primo search results:

https://uttyler-primo.hosted.exlibrisgroup.com/primo-explore /search?query=any,contains,Cognitive%20therapy%20of% 20depression&tab=default_tab&search_scope=default_scope&vid=UTT&offset =0

The 1st result (for me, and now) shows: "checked out from", and points to

https://catalog.uttyler.edu/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=1 3966

On the other hand, a search on:

https://uttyler-primo.hosted.exlibrisgroup.com/primo-explore /search?query=any,contains,handbook%20stress%20health& tab=default_tab&search_scope=default_scope&vid=UTT&offset=0

says "Available at UT TYler Main Campus Stacks (BF575.S75 2017)", but if you go to the Koha bib record: https://catalog.uttyler.edu/cg i-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=978296

it's checked out, so not available.

*QUESTIONS*:

* has someone linked Koha & Primo & successfully displayed the availability in real time ? I have other exemples of Primo+Koha, but they are all saying "click here so see availability". * if someone from Tyler is around, can you explain what you made ;)
