The Primo Experience at Northwestern University

Abstract

As Primo implementation nears its end, we have had the opportunity to build upon the increased functionality that Primo provides our patrons. We will highlight some of the implementation"""lessons learned""""and will expand upon the development work we have done to include: LDAP/Shibboleth authentication, website content inclusion, table extraction from Oracle and the building of MS Access databases for reporting, the inclusion of Primo in our downloadable"""NorthwesternMobile""""suite of iPhone apps, and the development of Blackboard building blocks to provide"""push""""and"""pull""""integration between Primo and Blackboard (for students and instructors).
