Interesting, does their link resolver API do article-level links, or 
just journal title level links?

I/you/one could easily write a plugin for Umlaut for their API, would be

We'd like to do something that looks more modern and is far more user friendly. I found a great article in the Code4Lib journal (issue 12, by Danielle Rosenthal&   Mario Bernado) about building a searchable A to Z list using Drupal. I'm also wondering what other institutions have done as far as in-house solutions. I know there're products we could buy, but, like everyone else, we don't have much money at the moment.
