University of Bern

swisscovery — University Library of Bern tenant view

Library discovery for the University of Bern runs on swisscovery, the Swiss Library Service Platform's shared Ex Libris Alma / Primo VE installation. Bern has an institution-specific tenant view at https://ubbern.swisscovery.slsp.ch (verified 2026-09-01: 200, redirects to /discovery/search?vid=41SLSP_UBE:UBE, Primo VE application), and DNS confirms the tenancy — ubbern.swisscovery.slsp.ch CNAMEs to slsp-ube.primo.exlibrisgroup.com then eu03.primo.exlibrisgroup.com. The collection, the holdings and the tenant view are Bern's; the platform, the API and the contract are Ex Libris's, so NO Ex Libris specification is saved under this institution. The relationship is recorded because it is a real institutional fact and one of the few programmable library surfaces Bern has.
