About
The IGeLU Primo Working Group was formed in 2009. This was in recognition of the need for representation for the growing international Primo user community, for the Primo product launched in 2007.
The objective of the IGeLU Primo Working Group is collaboration with Ex Libris Primo Product Management for Primo product development, including consultation on new and existing features and services, and advocacy on behalf of the Primo community.
A primary activity of the IGeLU Primo Working Group is responsibility for managing the annual Primo enhancements process, and delivery monitoring of successful accepted submissions, in close collaboration with the separate ELUNA Primo Working Group.
Other activities include:
- supporting the annual IGeLU Conference
- participation in Focus and Advisory Groups, and special projects
- management of the Primo community listserv
- and regular meetings with Ex Libris Product Management.

Primo listserv
The Primo community listserv is owned by the IGeLU and ELUNA organisations and is managed collaboratively by the IGeLU Primo WG and the ELUNA Primo WG.
- The Primo list is an unmoderated discussion forum supporting communication, collaboration, and knowledge sharing between members of the Ex Libris Primo users community.
- Subscription approval is by recognisable institution domain email for named individuals currently employed at sites licensing Ex Libris products, in addition to Ex Libris staff and affiliates by email domain. Internal distribution lists and group email accounts, including where recipients and posters may be anonymous, will not be approved.
- Periodic review of the subscription list may result in removal.
- Posting to the list is only permitted by subscribers.
- Posts should not be distributed beyond eligible subscribers.
