Journal Finder

 

The first OpenURL Link Resolver to go into production in the United States, was created, designed, and has been maintained by the Electronic Resources and Information Technology staff of UNCG.

 

Now owned by and available from WT Cox Subscriptions, Journal Finder gives library patrons easy access to the electronic resources the library subscribes to. Journal Finder is a combination of an A-Z list, Link Resolver and a very friendly and easy-to-use ERM.

 

Journal Finder has continually been enhanced from its beginning with additional usage reports, expanded linking, ERM and more than 13,000 free and Open Access titles, along with many additional features. Journal Finder is now being used by over 70 libraries and has a solid reputation and very loyal fan base.

 

Journal Finder was developed by librarians for the library user.
