To avoid duplicating your searches and running the same search query over and over, Primo allows signed-in users to save searches between sessions and receive email alerts when there is an update to the saved search query.
Take a look through the following tabs for instructions on how to make the most of this function.
The My Favourites page, which is accessed by clicking the My Favourites button at the top of the Primo home page, contains the following tabs:

This tab displays all of your saved searches (what you've used as keywords) and allows you to manage your saved searches.
This tab displays all of your searches for the current session and allows you to manage your current session's searches. For signed-in users, Primo will retain the last 100 searches.
To save a record:
Perform a search.
Click the Pin button next to the item that you want to save in the search results.
The system highlights the item, changes the icon to the Pinned icon , and adds the item to the My Favourites page.
If you want to check what you have searched for previously, click Search history and here you'll see a list of your searches - the keywords you used in your original search.
Click on the blue hyperlinked keywords and this will take you to the results page for those terms.
For signed-in users, Primo stores the last 100 searches in Search History and allows these queries to be copied to Saved Searches.
