Library link resolver working again

**update** OCLC reports this is working again.  It is working for Terry and myself here in the library.

At the moment the library link resolver is down.

That means that you can't follow "check for full text" links from databases to article full text, and you can't follow "view" links from the catalog into ebooks, online films, etc.  Also, if you've got library full text links active in Google Scholar, those links won't actually get you to our library copies of full text.

Many apologies for this inconvenience!

Suggested workaround: pick a big database that has plenty of full text
If you're looking for a specific article, search it in Google
  • You might get free full text!
  • At least you should see which publisher published this article; look in the list of databases to see if we have a full text collection from that publisher
