Your Full Text Finder link resolver provides
end-users with the ability to quickly access a
copy of full-text articles that you may subscribe
to from a publisher or other provider, submit an
interlibrary loan request for an item where no
full text is available, or check your online
catalog for additional information. In this
tutorial, we will review the Links management
features available in the Holdings Management tab
within EBSCOadmin.
3
When holdings are selected, the system will
automatically assign links based on those
selections however, you can edit these links, or
add additional links, as needed.
4
To add a link, select Manage Your Links from the
Overview or click Links from the top right corner
under the main navigation.
5
Click New Link or select a link from those
displayed to edit it. When creating a new link,
select Create New Link or you can copy from an
existing System Link.
6
Add or modify the information fields. Choose the
conditions under which the link displays for your
holdings and control how the link displays and
behaves in Publication Finder. Once you have made
your selections, click Save.
7
Some vendors may require additional information,
such as site IDs or account numbers to enable
linking these can be entered as Full Text Finder
Tokens.  To add a token, click the Links icon in
the Holdings Management navigation bar then
click Full Text Finder Tokens. Enter relevant
token information. Click Save.
8
Now that the link has been created, you need to
assign where the link should display. To the
right of the Details tab you will see Titles,
Packages, Vendors, and Root tabs with the number
of each item that the link is assigned to. Click
the assignment level you would like to use for
that link.
9
The default display is for items already assigned
at that level. To assign to a Vendor, select Find
Vendors to Assign. Search by the item name and
from the result list click the gray Not
Assigned button.
10
The button will turn green and display Assigned
and the headings will update with the number of
each item that the link is assigned to.  
11
Links can also be assigned to a particular title,
package, or vendor by searching for the item in
your collection and viewing the detail page. Once
you have selected your resource, click
the Links tab and locate an existing Link
available in your library by selecting Show
Links not assigned. For any of the displayed
links click the gray Not Assigned button to
assign the link to this resource.
12
At any time, click the Help link in the top
toolbar to view the complete online Help system.
