Hi all,
I hope this message finds you well! We are currently evaluating LibKey’s OpenURL solutions for potential integration with our library systems and are seeking information regarding any known limitations or challenges associated with its implementation.
Specifically,  we are interested in understanding:

  *
Are there particular databases or platforms where LibKey’s OpenURL linking is less effective or unsupported due to metadata or technical constraints?
  *
What are the requirements for successful linking (e.g., DOI, PMID, publisher support), and what happens when these are not met?
  *
Are there any known issues related to user experience, accessibility, or customization when using LibKey OpenURL links across different platforms?


  *


Any insights or first hand experiences you could provide on these points would be greatly appreciated as we assess the best solution for our users.
Thanks for your assistance!

Take care,
Flynn
