Hi,

It is very interesting to hear about libraries who have started to work with 
WebBridge.

I would like to know if your library has started to use WebBridge to link from 
sources other than your Innovative Library Catalogue. For example have you 
contacted database vendors, such as ProQuest, OCLC, EBSCO, OVID and started to 
implement linking from these database vendors? What has been your experience 
with linking from other sources than your catalogue?
