Background
The Discovery Function Committee was tasked with an evaluation of Primo VE to see if it would meet the CSU Libraries' needs. The two main drivers being that Primo VE is where all new customers are being directed and thus is receiving more development energy from Ex Libris and that VE is required for Rapido. Refer to the early Go VE Forums for details.
