EBSCO Link Source and Google Scholar Edward Keane 05 Oct 2011 17:03 UTC

Hi everyone,

I am wondering if anyone has had the experience of waiting an an undue amount of time for Google Scholar to be configured to work with LinkSource?

My recollection from several years ago is that it took about a week or two for Serials Solutions to configure Google Scholar to work with their product.

I have no other complaints about LinkSource, so far it seems to do what it's supposed to and is relatively easy to work with, but our institution notified EBSCO in August that we wanted Google Scholar to work with LinkSource and in my opinion it shouldn't take more than a month for this to get done.  But perhaps I am being unreasonable or my memory isn't serving me well regarding our Serials Solutions experience.

Can anyone involved with the purchase ofLinkSource share their experiences regarding this issue.

Thanks, Ed
