Third Iron has taken the unique step of locally loading, analyzing, and adding to Unpaywall data so that LibKey now delivers the best, most comprehensive, and most reliable access to Open Access articles available! For libraries using LibKey services, this means connecting your users to more content.

Did you know LibKey can also be added virtually anywhere you are using your link resolver to get users to full text? This includes all of your databases, bibliographic management tools like RefWorks, and more! Reducing the clicks to content and increasing link reliability saves researchers time and provides a better user experience, all while reducing broken links, the number of library help desk tickets and unnecessary ILL requests.
