Curtin Library Discovery (Ex Libris Primo/Alma tenant)

Curtin Library's discovery layer, running on Ex Libris Primo over Alma. The collection and the holdings are Curtin's; the platform, its APIs and its contracts are Ex Libris's and are not saved here. Recorded because the tenancy is a real institutional fact and one of the few programmable surfaces the library has.
