SNU Library Discovery (Ex Libris Primo / Alma) — tenancy

Seoul National University Library runs library management and discovery on Ex Libris Alma and Primo, institution code 82SNU / 82SNU_INST, on the institution-specific host snu-primo.hosted.exlibrisgroup.com. Confirmed from SNU Library's own homepage (lib.snu.ac.kr), which links search, journal search, thesis search and full-display into that host and pulls cover thumbnails from ap01.alma.exlibrisgroup.com. This entry exists to record a real institutional fact — SNU operates a library discovery service — while refusing the misattribution that goes with it. The catalog data is SNU's; the API, the contract and the engineering are Ex Libris's, and no Ex Libris specification is saved under this institution. Score the contract against Ex Libris, not against SNU.
