1
Update Primo/Alma Invoices with NU Invoices numbers automatically following payment. (integrate Alma and NU Financials for post payment update).AT: Alma invoicing automated updates - This project was looked at with Jackie, John, and folks from NU financials in 2018 but halted and I cannot remember why. This should not be on the Primo dev list – it is Alma and has no effect on PrimoHigh
2
Primo Record Messaging and Enriching Records using WordPressMN: this allows us to set up a WordPress site and then to "enrich" Primo records with additional external information. Ex: add access notes for vendor specific records. (need VE update work).High
3
Have Primo images/records display using lightboxesMN: this allows for images and records to be displayed on top of the current webpage without jumping to another webpage, or changing the webpage the user is currently on. A major usability gain in my opinion.High
4
Integrate Google Charts in Primo UIMN: some institutions put google charts on their primo webpages to show various "use" statistics that might be considered interesting. High for Proof of Concept.High

Monthly and Quarterly Release Updates for Primo and PrimoVE and Alma: Updates for Alma (monthly) and Primo (Quarterly) have customizations that we can now use but for years we have not stayed on top of them. There are many enhancements and customizations that we need to implement.MN: There are many Primo customizations, along with Alma customizations (that impact Primo) that have gone un-reviewed and not implemented. Now, we need to go back through the earlier PrimoVE Release Notes and pull out PrimoVE customizations and see if we need/want to implement them. This current list of dev projects is several years old so a new fresh review is needed to make up for the years missed..High
8
New Books Carousel needs to be implemented in PrimoVE New UI environment.AT: a lot of Dev work. A New Books Carousel has been designed and Tim Hagan likes the idea.

Altmetrics and Download Widgets – create Altmetrics TabAT: Altmetrics was set up using an established plugin on my Primo BO SB for review.

12
Computer Usage Maps of Library (Computer terminal maps linked in Primo)MN: this allows us to have a map (similar to Alice's location maps) that display computer stations and displays if they are available.

13
Library Web Archiving (Crawl library websites): results to be found in PrimoMN: Many institution "crawl" their library website and make the information discoverable to searching in Primo. Do we want to do this? Could set up in Sandbox and see how the library info displays.Consider
