Hi Ross,
An FYI -- maybe not useful.
We're using an archaic authentication system that doesn't play that well
with LinkSource (or anything else for that matter). So, I actually tried
to set up LinkSource without hiding it behind authentication. This
turned out to be a fool's errand because there's a built-in restriction
to LinkSource: EBSCO SmartLinks (i.e., the links from LinkSource to all
your EBSCO databases) are only available when the user is authenticated.
You can build your own, as I tried to do, but the linking is far less
robust. So, I doubt you'll find many LinkSources "in the wild".
