ABSTRACT:
The article presents information on Eastern Kentucky University's implementation of the OpenURL link resolver product, SFX. OpenURL is the standard of data transport from a resource to a server that supports content-sensitive reference-linking. It is a vehicle for sending information from the A&I database to the SFX-type server and then back out to the user. SFX is a software program that make content-sensitive linking possible through seamless linking between digital resources. The software was purchased along with a Linux server in January 2004. Training took place on site over two days, as staff worked with a company representative using their own SFX knowledge base. For the next four months, systems administrator Todd King focused mainly on the server aspects, while the Serials & Electronic Resources Librarian focused on activating targets and contacting vendors. In addition, an SFX Task Force was formed to make decisions about the end user elements of SFX.
