<p class="MsoNormal">So many great suggestions and not sure if this has already been covered, but one thing we did in preparing for our recent link resolver transition was to utilize (wherever possible) a local OpenURL redirector which points to the new resolver.
That way, you don’t have to repeat all of the changes should another transition take place down the road.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Love the crowd-sourcing suggestion!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Another thing to think about is where to keep this information, such as necessary urls or ip addresses etc., internally and who needs to be made aware of its location. We’re currently using a LibGuide that is not published to the public.
We’ve also used a document on a shared drive.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Changing link resolvers is rarely easy regardless of the products involved – something is invariably overlooked. Like updating the url in Worldcat or other 3<sup>rd</sup> party databases where you have activated your link resolver. If
there is not a checklist that is product neutral, I’d like to help create one.<o:p></o:p></p>

I am aware of, however, I have been in contact with one of the EDS trainers who is helping me through the process, so I don't miss anything. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">Besides the information that you mentioned, there is another step you might consider. You will need to confirm that EBSCO has added Full Text Finder to your EDS profile so that you will be able
to order your linking properly (ours wasn't). We created a "local collection for Filter" that points to our Gold Rush linker (under the "SetUp/Maintain CustomLinks" option under "Customize Services"). From what I understand, this will need to point to Full
Text Finder (not Gold Rush).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">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.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
