SFX Linking Service at University of Strathclyde Library [SFX FAQs] [ppt] [ppt text version] |
||
What is SFX? |
SFX is an OpenURL linking resolver that allows users to link directly to the electronic full-text for a reference (the SFX target) plus other related information. These links are available via the SFX menu. | |
SFX menu |
The SFX menu will display when you click: the 
button or equivalent link from a search in
one of our electronic databases.the 
from our SFX Ejournal lists.the 
button from our Citation Linker. |
|
Ejournal lists |
SFX provides lists of our electronic journals - alphabetically, by SFX subject heading, by ISSN or service provider. These lists are more comprehensive than the library catalogue as they also include ejournal titles from our database services such as ABI/Inform, Hein Online, Literature Resource Center and Omnifile. At present Westlaw non UK journals and LexisNexis Butterworths are not OpenURL compliant and titles on these services can only be found by searching these databases directly. | |
Ejournal links |
The
button
will take you to the SFX menu screen and give details of years and volumes
available plus access information. The journal title link will take you directly
to the electronic service unless that title is available from more than one
service - in which case the title link will go to the SFX menu screen. |
|
Citation Linker |
Citation Linker allows you to search for a known journal article to find out if
full-text electronic access is available. The
button will take you to the SFX menu screen. |
