Hello,<br>
<br>
If you have enabled Gale metadata "databases" in your EBSCO EDS profile,<br>
this is of relevance to you.<br>
When Gale provides the metadata to EBSCO, they prefix the abstract with the<br>
following message, which is of great confusion to users, especially given<br>
that we actually have customlinks to lead them, properly-proxied, to the<br>
full text:<br>
<br>
To purchase or authenticate to the full-text of this article, please visit<br>
this link: <a href="http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/vsu.12355/abstract" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/vsu.12355/abstract</a><br>
<br>
<br>
[obviously the DOI changes per article]<br>
<br>
You can actually just put that "to purchase..." phrase right into an EDS<br>
keyword search to see it for yourself, because it is literally in the<br>
abstract.<br>
<br>
When I contacted Gale about this, I got this reply:<br>
<br>
"Our development team has responded back regarding the inclusion of the "To<br>
purchase or authenticate to the full-text of this article, please visit<br>
this link" line. They have stated that it is necessary to include this line<br>
and they cite that it is company policy to do so. We apologize for any<br>
inconvenience. Please contact us back should you have further questions or<br>
concerns.<br>
<br>
<br>
I have complained further that this is an unnecessary policy because other<br>
third party indexers don't include this with their Wiley citations, and at<br>
minimum it should be provided in a different metadata field, as it does not<br>
belong at the front of the abstract (at best it should be completely<br>
eliminated).<br>
<br>
But we need more than just my voice to get Gale to change their mind about<br>
this because apparently my own complaint went pretty high before it came<br>
back with that statement.<br>
<br>
If you agree with me that this should be changed, I urge you to contact<br>
your Gale "customer success manager" to add your voice to mine about it.<br>
<br>
By the way, it's entirely possible that this is in other discovery services<br>
as well, but I have no way to check that. Summon users might also have<br>
reason to get involved.<br>
<br>
Thanks all, for your consideration of this request.<br>

It's appearing for us in Primo, even though we don't have access via Gale<br>
to the resources that appear to be affected. It looks like the metadata is<br>
coming from Gale's OneFile collection.<br>
<br>
The phrase is appearing in the "Description" field of the item in Primo,<br>
even though it doesn't appear at the final article (because we're not going<br>
through Gale).<br>
<br>
I will also be contacting Gale.<br>
