<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">For those of you who have set up the OpenURL in EBSCO, have you found the OpenURL links helpful? I did a brief testing after I set it up and have not found it to be very useful.
Maybe I didn’t set it up right, but I’d love to know what your experience with it has been like. Has it been worth the setup and activation?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">In EBSCO, when there’s an article that does not have full text, I get a link that pops up to check for it in Primo (screenshots below). But when I click on the link, it takes
me to the “Item Details” box in the old Primo. I have to click on the “View online” tab in order to find out that there really isn’t any full text available. I’d think this is a total waste of time if I were the student who went through all these steps hoping
to find the full text of the article. (I did a simple keyword search for sunshine if anybody wants to duplicate my search).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
