"DEEP LINKING: USING OPEN URL TO CONNECT DATABASES"
Sponsored by the Technology and Trends Section

Using a library-provided link server, patrons can use open URL linking to go from one database to a corresponding location in another database. The presentation will demonstrate examples and give an overview of the technology including its strengths, weaknesses, and implementation options.

Tim Bucknall, Electronic Information Resources Librarian, at the University of North Carolina-Greensboro, will lead the discussion.
