AUB Libraries discovery and management (Ex Libris Primo / Alma)

AUB's library discovery and library services platform are Ex Libris products under AUB-specific tenancies: aub.primo.exlibrisgroup.com and aub.alma.exlibrisgroup.com both CNAME into Ex Libris's eu06 region. A negative control confirms these are not wildcards — a nonsense institution subdomain on the same parent does not resolve — so the per-institution tenancy is real. The Primo host returns 200 with an identical 4,784-byte SPA shell for every view id tried, so no view could be confirmed from the body; that is a limit on our probe, not evidence of a service. The data is AUB's, the contract is Ex Libris's, and no vendor specification is saved under AUB's name.
