Problems with Elsevier Full Text links in Multisearch

Kia ora koutou

We’ve just become aware of an issue with Links to ScienceDirect Freedom collection 2018 articles via Multisearch.  When clicking on Full Text links you are taken to an article linker screen with a “Sorry, no holdings were found for this journal” message with citation information and links to alternative searches and interloans form.

 

If you check the journal holdings on the catalogue you’ll find we do hold the journal volumes the article is in and should be able to navigate to and view the article.

We’ve reported this issue to our Multisearch vendors and will get it resolved ASAP.  Something to bear in mind for teaching involving Multisearch.

  1. This problem has now been fixed though at this stage most Science Direct Freedom Collection 2018 articles appearing in Multisearch results will still be going via Web of Science citation records rather than directly to the articles. The latter issue should be fixed the next time our Summon index gets refreshed (this usually happens twice a week).
