Using a combination of Apache aliases based on a modified dlSearch.do syntax and a virtual server dedicated to deep link redirects, one can create simple and concise aliases for deep links into Primo. This session is intended for a broad audience, some familiarity with the construction of URL query strings may be helpful, but is not required. I would expect the audience to gain a general understanding of the deep link API. </mods:abstract><mods:classification authority="lcc">Primo</mods:classification><mods:originInfo><mods:dateIssued encoding="iso8601">2011-05</mods:dateIssued></mods:originInfo><mods:genre>Conference or Workshop Item</mods:genre></mods:mods>
