he recieved email from ExL announcing the release.
Documentation is already up on the ExL site.
- Rich aslo reported that there was no progress with the IEEE SFX thing.
* SFX and Google Scholar
- Ideas generated to give to Mackensie before her meeting with the Google
staff.
~ Can an option be added to limit results to things with the MIT Access
link?
~ Currently the SFX server setup determines whether the MIT Access link
takes you to the SFX menu or directly to the full text when there is one.
A suggestion was made to let this be a user-defined option/
- Direct linking has been turned on in the test instance of SFX and Rich
showed us some examples. There are problems if the DOI or PMID is not
listed as one we have access to.
~ Can we turn this on *only* for Google Scholar?
~ Tracy and Millicent will draw up a list of pros and cons to bring to
next meeting for turning this on in live SFX
