Melissa,

<div class="">A quick reply to mention that SFX has had this capability as well for most of its existence, called direct linking. It can be done via a banner (deprecated), a sidebar, or without either option. Problems with T&F were first reported in the SFX
community back in August of 2016, I think. Since we don’t use direct linking for article level linking (although we do for title-level linking), I am not sure if the sidebar option for SFX works well with T&F or not. Perhaps someone on this list who does can
verify.</div>

We use EBSCO as our link resolver and take advantage of a nice feature that has the patron taken directly to the PDF via the first appropriate link in our holdings knowledgebase, rather than making them look at an intermediary list of choices and figure out
what to do.</div>

The problem is that EBSCO uses iframes to do this, and Taylor & Francis, apparently uniquely among all major publishers, has done something with their website design that blocks this kind of use. The result is that attempts to get to the PDF this way result
in a mostly blank white screen for the patron.</div>

I would like to know if other, non-EBSCO, openurl resolvers have a similar "take me directly to the PDF" option and if you use it, do you also have problems with T&F journals?</div>

PS. If anyone out there using EBSCO says they don't have this problem, it's likely because you get your T&F journals directly from EBSCO so they can use Smartlinks rather than openurl links to get there. We have a consortial subscription package that does not
work with EBSCO so we have to use openurl links instead.</div>
