The following is only relevant to WebBridge Builders (not
sure what the collective noun is) hoping to link into the
new Web of Science/Web of Knowledge platform hosted by
Thomson via Mimas. I understand that this has become
available to all existing mimas users from today and offers
more functionality.
There is no change to the link syntax or SID (ISI:WoS) if
using the 'old' service hosted at mimas. The new service
automatically copies over your webBridge origin settings
but you need to create a new origin (perhaps called
something like ISI2) with a SID of ISI:WoK for the links to
work. The good news is that the new server seems to be
providing a far richer source of OpenURL data than the old
service which will make some of our existing ISI-specific
links redundant.
Best wishes,
Martin
