Hello,

EBSCO host has changed their base url for article level linking.  We've done
some preliminary testing and the old url :
http://linking.epnet.com/linksvc/linking.asp?
<http://linking.epnet.com/linksvc/linking.asp?>  doesn't seem to be working.
To update the EBSCO target with the new base url do the following:

Login to grstaff.coalliance.org

Select the Settings tab

Select Manage Gold Rush Linker

Click on the Linker Targets tab

Select the Edit button for EBSCO

Replace the existing Base URL with
http://openurl.ebscohost.com/linksvc/linking.aspx?

Be sure to click the update button to save your changes

You can test it by entering into your Article Finder a citation for a full
text article carried by an EBSCO database.  Here's a common citation that I
use for testing:

Title: Meeting a Challenge with Ideas and Optimism. 
Authors: Kelly, James 
Source: Time; 11/14/2005, Vol. 166 Issue 20, p5-6, 2p, 15c 
ISSN: 0040-781X 
Database:  Academic Search Premier

Thanks to Mike Robinson from UAA for discovering this!
