Lane Library's SFX instance now provides direct linking from PubMed search results to the actual article. A banner above the article identifies the library, the university and the service. Links within the red banner (e.g., "show all options" and "email lane") let users easily access the services normally found on the Find-It@Stanford menu.
To go from PubMed to the full text of an article online, click on the SFX Find It@Stanford button.
A new browser window opens to show the article, with the FindIt@Stanford banner at the top.
Opening the article within this frame saves users both time and clicks, especially when there is only one source for an article. When there are multiple sources, the system displays the first result. In case of any problems, the user can click on "show all options" in the red banner to view additional sources, access the library catalog, or email Lane staff about the problem.
If there is no link to full text online, the usual FindIt@Stanford menu appears, including links to interlibrary loan services ( DocXpress at Lane and SULAIR ILL).
