Abstract


Many libraries have outsourced the task of managing freely available e-resources to OpenURL knowledgebase providers such as Serials Solutions and Ex Libris. This presentation will evaluate the inclusion of freely available e-resources in two commercially available (and prevalent) OpenURL knowledgebases and discuss ways to avoid potential problems for libraries.
