Technical information/setup

While each LMS/Discovery system implements the link generation differently, the links should start with your guide’s URL. This URL is available by clicking Open live view in the editing area:

URL structure​

Use query parameters to append information to the URL. Depending on how the media is structured in the library, the amount of needed query parameters will vary. For example, if a shelf can be identified by only using Location and Shelf, Department is not needed.

The following keys can be used:

  • department – the primary dividing value, such as department for adult or youth.
  • location – sometimes used instead of Department.
  • shelf – the dewey code or similar.
  • sublocation - seldom used
  • text – optional, adding a message element, usually the book's title

Full URL example: https://wagnerguide.com/c/demo/demolibrary?department=abc&location=123&shelf=800.1

If you're using Quria by Axiell, there may be two fields you enter the URL into.

Base URL - the unique URL to your guide, such as: https://wagnerguide.com/c/demo/demolibrary

Second part - the information of the catalogue post: ?encoding=utf-8&unit_code={{UnitCode}}&locale={{Locale}}&param0={{DepartmentCode}}&param1={{SectionCode}}&param2={{FirstCharacterAuthorOrTitle}}&shelf={{ItemShelfmark}}&text={{AuthorAndTitle}}
