It contains two sub\u2010projects: to incorporate all forms of serials in SFX; and to integrate SFX with the Evergreen library catalogue for serials access. Various issues associated with print serials and open source software were also investigated.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Findings<\/jats:title><jats:p>A unified view of print and electronic serials is desired and well received by librarians and patrons. There is no technical difficulty uploading print serials data into SFX, but the process can be time\u2010consuming and challenging. Open source software is flexible in terms of customization and interoperability with other library systems though it presents challenges to system staff.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-heading\">Originality\/value<\/jats:title><jats:p>This paper has the following contributions: it is the first work on the integration of Evergreen open source ILS and the proprietary link resolver, SFX, in the literature. The issues encountered and their solutions presented in this paper may be applicable to the integration of open source ILSs, such as Evergreen and Koha, with link resolvers or other library systems; and the method described in this paper to facilitate users in accessing all forms of serials may be useful for other institutions having SFX or other link resolver systems.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1108\/07378831111116967","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,3,12]],"date-time":"2011-03-12T07:09:50Z","timestamp":1299913790000},"page":"137-148","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Access to serials: integrating SFX with Evergreen open source ILS"],"prefix":"10.1108","volume":"29","author":[{"given":"Guoying","family":"Liu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Huoxin","family":"Zheng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"140","reference":[{"key":"key2022021320051337900_b1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Borgman, C.
