[dini-ag-kim-identifier] Http-URIs for items

Hi list,

provided that you mean the manifestation with $resourceID, this would 
not help in our case, as we have several identical items under the same 
signature under the same bibliographic record, i.e., manifestation.

Example:

http://vs30.kobv.de/primo_library/libweb/action/display.do?doc=MAN_ALEPH001101864&scp.scps=&vid=MAN_UB

Click on "Standorte"/"Locations" and then "Lehrbuchsammlung".

Of course all these items are identical, but maybe you still would like 
to distinguish them, if you want to identify and handle the real, 
physical books.

Cheers,

Kai
