Working in FOLIO Inventory and want to see what the record looks like in your New EDS or another EBSCO profile interface? The following bookmarklet can help.
When you are viewing an instance record, holding record, or item record in FOLIO Inventory, activate the bookmarklet to open the EDS record in a new window/tab. Unfortunately, this is a one-way only bookmarklet as the code to move from New EDS to FOLIO is not yet developed.
To install the path to New EDS:
- copy the code below into a text editor
- replace YOUR_EDS_OPID with the Opaque ID (OPID) for your library’s New EDS profile [OPID URLs look like this: https://research.ebsco.com/c/{OPID}]
- replace YOUR_EDS_URL with the URL from an Accession number in a cataloged record in your New EDS as shown below. Make sure to include the final “.”.
- drag the edited code onto your web browser's bookmarks toolbar; OR, create a new bookmark and put the edited code in as the URL
- Give your bookmarklet a nice name, like “FOLIO → EDS”
javascript:(function(){var u=location.href.match(/inventory\/view\/([\w-]+)/);u?window.open("https://research.ebsco.com/c/YOUR_EDS_OPID/search/results?q=AN YOUR_EDS_URL"+u[1].replace(/-/g,".")) : alert("UUID not found.");})();
To install the path to another EBSCO profile (e.g. an Expanded Catalog as presented in the June 12 MOBIUS Open Hours Presentation):
- copy the code below into a text editor
- replace YOUR_EBSCO_PROFILE_OPID with the Opaque ID (OPID) for your library’s EBSCO profile [OPID URLs look like this: https://research.ebsco.com/c/{OPID}]
- replace YOUR_EBSCO_PROFILE_URL with the URL from an Accession number in a cataloged record in your EBSCO profile as shown below. Make sure to include the final “.”.
- drag the edited code onto your web browser's bookmarks toolbar; OR, create a new bookmark and put the edited code in as the URL
- Give your bookmarklet a nice name, like “FOLIO → Expanded Catalog”
javascript:(function(){var u=location.href.match(/inventory\/view\/([\w-]+)/);u?window.open("https://research.ebsco.com/c/YOUR_EBSCO_PROFILE_OPID/search/results?q=AN YOUR_EBSCO_PROFILE_URL"+u[1].replace(/-/g,".")) : alert("UUID not found.");})();
