PubMed Central Free target publication list update
A change has been made to the PubMed Central Free target publication list to address an issue with end coverages and embargo periods. Currently the end coverage for titles that have an embargo period are not correct. To remedy this issue the end coverage is being set appropriately which removes the need to include embargo information in the global list.

Customer inquiries about the Blackwell Synergy transition to Wiley Interscience and problems with links not resolving have been reported. Customers can contact Blackwell-Wiley technical support cs-journals@wiley.com with any questions or concerns.

Their Online Content Transition news page is http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/aboutus/wiley-blackwell/transition.html


June 20, 2008
Due to the merger of Blackwell Publishing with Wiley, beginning on June 30, 2008, the Blackwell journals in our Blackwell Synergy target will be available via Wiley Interscience. For the rest of 2008 all Blackwell Synergy links will be redirected to Wiley Interscience.

During June 28-29 both Blackwell Synergy and Wiley InterScience will be unavailable while the content is moved.

Blackwell Synergy and Wiley titles are also available under the CrossRef full text target.  We recommend using the CrossRef target henceforth.  Prior customer link configurations under the Blackwell Synergy global target will be migrated to the CrossRef target later this year.  We will communicate details prior to the migration to ensure a smooth transition.

Ovid LinkSolver™ Now Supports Non-English Characters

Ovid LinkSolver is now able to fully resolve, display and pass along inbound links from Ovid SearchSolver and other sites that send properly configured OpenURLs containing non-English characters. This also means that Journals A-Z will enable title browsing in Japanese and Korean, in addition to Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Polish, Spanish, and Swedish. Users can also search and retrieve journal titles in those languages.

A new Publisher Web Site target, Publisher Web Sites - Free is now global. This target contains single journals from publishers that provide free access. Currently there is one title that is available in the target, the Journal of Computer-Mediated Communication. Information about this journal is at http://jcmc.indiana.edu/index.html.

Several new journals have been added to the Publisher Web Sites target, the Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery - American Volume, Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery - British Volume and Journal of Rheumatology. Both the Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery - American Volume and Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery - British Volume were added to this target to fix linking issues for a number of databases. Each of the databases (MEDLINE, Current Contents, EMBASE and CINAHL) indexed these two titles very differently making linking to the full text via HighWire inconsistent.
