Description

An aggregator harvests metadata records for eprints from a wide variety of repositories. In so doing, it finds that there is no common approach to linking to full-text(s) and therefore any automated means of providing links to the full-text(s) are unreliable. The aggregator needs an unambiguous means of identifying the locations of full-text(s).
