LinkSource®
LinkSource® is a vendor-neutral OpenURL link resolver
that puts the library in control of item-level linking and
helps to maximize the use of its full-text collections.
Using LinkSource’s extensive knowledge base, the
library administrator can select the appropriate
resources (databases, e-journal sites, etc.) to be linked
and apply the conditions that determine when the
links display, solving the “appropriate copy” problem.
WebFeat Express™
WebFeat Express™ is a federated search engine
packaged with EBSCO A-to-Z. Once the library has
established the databases to which it has access in
EBSCO A-to-Z, the WebFeat Express search engine
can automatically detect them. The end result is that
patrons can search any or all of a library’s databases
simultaneously through a single interface.
EBSCO A-to-Z with
MARC Updates
With EBSCO A-to-Z with MARC Updates, customers
can elect to receive a MARC file of their electronic
holdings on a monthly basis. This service acts as a
single, comprehensive source of MARC cataloging
that allows libraries to easily include virtually all their
e-content in their catalog.
