- NDSU has been contemplating whether to turn on direct linking in Primo. You can activate at the brief record level or the full record level, and there are other customizations you can do like not show the direct link under certain conditions, such as an authentication note that you want the user to see. NDSU is thinking of doing a conservative version of it. UND activated it as well and tried to limit by vendor, but not sure that is working correctly.
