Libkey
Introduction
We have partnered with the University of South Australia and in collaboration with Third Iron (a leading information technology company developing innovative services for librarians), we have developed and delivered a new integration with Third Iron's LibKey Service.
LibKey is an AI-based, next generation linking technology, delivers fast, reliable, one-click access to millions of library-subscribed and Open Access articles that libraries make available from publisher and aggregator sources.
Student Interface
The LibKey integration will provide Students with the ability to access resources via the LibKey Integration. Five new resource buttons will be displayed on each resource where returned, along with access to the original eReserve resource. The new LibKey buttons are:
- Online
- Issue
- ILL
- Journal
Faculty Interface
Much like the Student Interface, Faculty are provided with the same LibKey resource buttons within the resource list.
Along with being shown when performing a search using "Find an Existing Reading" searching connected repositories or the eReserve Plus repository.
Student Utilisation
Each time a student accesses a Resource via one of the LibKey buttons, their utilisation and access counts are recorded accordingly appearing under the Unique Student Access chart.
