Committee Charge
1. Review electronic resource tracking services and
linking technologies to make it easier for VIVA
users to link from one source to another--from
abstract to article, from article to cited paper.
2. Develop learning experiences related to these
technologies and services, including a workshop
and handouts for the VIVA community.

Caveats
•
•
•
•
Business advantage in open linking?
No single “off-the-shelf” solution
Citation to article linking is beautiful
Cross-domain search results can be
confusing and downright ugly
• Look before you leap – new options in view
Discussion Points
• Where do we build it? Catalog, portal,
interoperable databases?
• Single source integrated systems or stand
alone applications?
• Local or remotely hosted product?
• VIVA union list? VIVA academic portal?
• Open source or vendor software?
• VIVA/vendor development partnerships?
