Hi Buddy,
If you mean whether we have “Show First Available FullText Link Only” checked in the Linking settings in EBSCOAdmin, then yes, we do. If the link does not work or the patron clicks on it a second time, then
the LinkSource menu will appear for the other access options. I have not received any complaints since activating that option.

We use Summon from ProQuest as our discovery tool. We provide a single link to full-text.

Subject: [SERIALST] Single link option for Discovery Services
We’ve just implemented EBSCO Discovery Service and are now doing some fine tuning. I’d like to know if your libraries have chosen to use a single link option to full text or are you providing multiple links to full text?
Thank you,
