[ERMCommittee] Question about public WorldCat

Hi, all.

This question covers a few different products, but I'm guessing some of you
manage all of these things in your library.

I just noticed something a little confusing when using search.worldcat.org

If someone affiliated with NEIU uses that to find an item, they can click
this button:

However, this is the menu that pops up:

The top option is nice, because it uses our standard "Find It @ NEIU"
language, however, it makes it appear as though the item is available
online. It's not. It's not a dead end, as the user is taken to Primo VE,
where they can login the usual way and make an interlibrary loan request.
We use Tipasa.

The link below takes the user directly to the Tipasa login page, and it
autocompletes the request form. This way saves the user some steps by
bypassing Primo VE entirely.

I think my question is -- how do we get the menu to show only *one* of
those links? I don't really care either way which one displays if it's
possible to only hide one or the other in worldcat.org/config.

Has anyone had success making all of these systems play nice together? (I
have a more complicated question about this new feature

but I'll save that for now.)

Thanks!
