But linking to full text is only partly the issue when it comes to using SFX in this way. I also want to ensure that those articles that we don't already have available in full text are directly routed to our internal doc. delivery form (in SFX speak, using an &svc.ill=yes in the OpenURL). This would of course mean that however the citation got parsed is how that form is filled out. Incorrect title information is a problem in this case.

Literally, possibly thousands. I can't divulge a great amount of detail (there we go again with that restriction on info.) of the exact use. But let's just say there are many very large documents (in PDF or Word), each of which contains between 100-400 article citations, that I am working with. Why on earth try to provide article-level OpenURLs? Well, for many reasons. I fully realize how much of a risk that is in terms of reliability and maintenance. But right now I just want a way to do this in bulk with a high level of accuracy. Steve
