through our interface• UM authentication needed for full text• Full text links are OpenURLs

D R A F TWhy?
• Loved Summon, but wanted to keep our users “here” until full-text
• Integrate article discovery into site• Provide other services around article
discovery• Opportunity to learn about our user’s needs
and behaviors
