Sorbonne University Libraries — Ex Libris Primo discovery

Library discovery for Sorbonne University's letters, sciences and medicine libraries, running on Ex Libris Primo over the Alma library services platform, at the institution-specific view https://sorbonne-universite.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/discovery/search?vid=33BSU_INST:33BSU (HTTP 200). Sorbonne selected Alma and Primo in 2020. Tenant. The holdings, the institution code 33BSU and the view configuration are Sorbonne's; the platform, the host and every API contract over it are Ex Libris / Clarivate's, and the Primo and Alma APIs are gated behind an Ex Libris developer account, so nothing callable is published under Sorbonne's name.
