Subject: Re: Lexis-Nexis direct links
Dear Louise,
I asked this in a meeting that we had with Chris Houghton from
Lexis-Nexis and he told me that at the moment you cannot link to
individual newspapers/journals etc but that it was something that they
were working on. I link to various journals on Lexis Nexis from the UCL
ejournals pages and I wrote a quick guide to navigating to specific
journals (ie: "browse source directory etc etc) to aid users...
Maybe that clarifies a bit?
thanks
James
