Description

The link resolvers provide links between articles published in electronic journals and bibliographic databases. We report on analysis of the log files of a link resolver, bibliographic databases and electronic journals. We have found that the link resolver can lead users from bibliographic databases to electronic journals in a wide range of research fields. In addition, we found that the resolver would lead users more often to journals of specialized subjects than to those of wide subject coverarge like PNAS, Science and Nature. This effect is remarkable in use of generic database like Web of Science.The former are usually accessed to e-journals websites whereas the latter are more frequently accessed more than before as a result of references from the link resolver.
