Is your feature request related to new functionality not yet included in the product? Please describe. At times, a user needs to use tools from the View It/Get It page (Primo VE) such as citation tools. It would be more convenient to access certain tools from Primo VE without having to return to Blacklight to access the Tools Menu there.

Is your feature request related to a problem or a change to existing functionality? Please describe. It is inconvenient to have to return to Blacklight to access the Tools Menu. The question is if adding any of the Tools to Primo VE will interfere or cause usability issues with the Tools Menu in Blacklight.

Describe the solution you'd like Ideally, the Tools of Cite, Endnote (or export as RIS), and print would be very helpful.

Describe alternatives you've considered Providing additional documentation to the user with how to return to Library Search.

How will this impact users? This could have a high impact on users who use Tools frequently.

Additional context Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.

@lovinscari we looked at the Cite and RIS export Tools from Primo VE and unfortunately, they are not configurable and have minimal fields mapped for them. So, a risk with this is that the outputs from these will be different than what we have configured in the Blacklight tools.
