Dear Eric,

Thank you for your explanation. Hope it could be possible in the future.
I tried to copy your script (hide-pdf-urls.js) in OPACUserJS, and searched 
collection with PDF file in 856$u. But it doesn't change the link of "Online 
access: Click here to access online" both in the search result and detail.pl 
page (the link still goes to my PDF file). Do I miss something in the setting?

Regards,
Ketut Gunawan

Hi Ketut,

I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think it's possible 
to modify the display of records based on whether or not someone is signed in. 
You can modify their display by editing Koha's XSLT templates. See Koha > 
koha-tmpl > opac-tmpl > bootstrap > en > xslt, here's an example one. But there 
is no way to change these conditionally based on whether a user is 
authenticated or not.

You could simulate this with some jQuery:

You would add this to your OPACUserJS setting. But it's not truly safe; users 
could disable JavaScript and they would see the PDF URLs, or they could view or 
export the underlying bibliographic record to find the URL. The only truly safe 
way to do this is to put the PDFs behind authentication somewhere e.g. in an 
institutional repository.
