[Wactclc-primo] [External] all ScienceDirect links broken

?Excellent troubleshooting, Amy.


Yes, overriding the parser parameters and changing that word should do the trick.

ATTENTION: This email contains links. Please follow best practices before clicking on links.
I can see that the failed link says:                https://www.sciencedirect.com/college/article/pii/S0140673609619796
And the correct link is:                                 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0140673609619796

The parser parameter in the service level says: host=https://www.sciencedirect.com/college/ & prefsite = sd & shib=$$SHIBBOLETH & u_shib=$$U_SHIBBOLETH

So that seems to be where "college" is coming from instead of "science" in the incorrect link.  Would overriding but replacing that one word do the trick or is it more complicated than that?

All of our Primo links to ScienceDirect (Elsevier) databases fail. Is anyone else experiencing this?  I've looked at the collections at the service level and linking uses a default parser parameter.  Would it help to do a parser parameter override with a shorter URL?  Other thoughts?
