WV as an SFX Source
CARLI is pleased to announce that WebVoyage, the Voyager OPAC, can now be configured as an SFX Source for I-Share libraries.
CARLI has adapted code developed at Texas A & M University in order to offer this service; our thanks to TAMU. A dynamic link from the OPAC to SFX is available to any I-Share library that has a single SFX instance (whether on the CARLI SFX server or elsewhere).
An SFX "Source" is the user's starting place. If an I-Share library chooses to configure WebVoyage as an SFX Source, then when the user begins her search in the OPAC and displays a single-record View page for a serial record, a "Seeking Full Text" image will "pulse" on the screen while a background script queries her library's SFX KnowledgeBase. If the script finds that electronic full text is available for the serial, the "Seeking Full Text" image will change to the library's own SFX button. Clicking the SFX button will generate an SFX Menu comparable to the Menu generated from the SFX A-Z List. If the script does not find that electronic full text is available for the serial, the "Seeking Full Text" image simply disappears.
