OCLC (6565 Kilgour Place, Dublin, OH 43017, 800/848-5878) has updated its 1 Cate OpenURL link resolver and renamed it "WorldCat Link Manager." WorldCat Link Manager allows users to link from an article citation to the full-text version of the article. The new name reflects the gradual merging of WorldCat data into Link Manager's knowledge base (and vice versa), as well as the increasing integration that users can expect between Link Manager and WorldCat.rnThe new release includes expanded access to e-Books as well as customization options for administrators. New features include the addition of "autosuggest," which looks up titles as the user types in the main search box, as well as availability of results in XML format via a full-featured API. In addition, the resource management system included in Link Manager now allows local administrators to customize coverage and add notes on records from the global knowledge base. Links for e-Books can be retrieved by ISBN or title and can be displayed as a result set that integrates a library's e-Books and e-journals.
