Greetings, Electronic Resource fans!



Middlebury is migrating our link resolver from 360 Link to EBSCO’s Full-Text Finder. We have migrated our holdings information. I find myself now bewildered by all the things that need to happen because the link resolver is (or at least seems to me to be) so central in making so many things work beyond just the discovery system. (We moved from Summon to EDS a year or so ago but retained 360 Link as our link resolver.) I am aware that the base URL needs to be changed, generally in the admin interface, of A&I resources like Scopus, etc., as well as publishers’ sites. It seems like there must be more to it, though.



I’m hoping someone in this group might be aware of a step by step checklist, or even a paragraph that describes what all needs to happen to complete a transition from one link resolver to another. Any assistance would be welcome!



Thank you!

--Arabella
