Third Iron’s AI-Powered Expert linking removes access barriers and helps libraries optimize subscribed and open access content, which is particularly important when access to library facilities and in-person help from librarians is restricted. Regardless of where users start their information journey, LibKey ensures consistent linking and offers guideposts to create a direct path to content seamlessly from discovery services, databases, and the open web.

LibKey keeps your library at the heart of the research process, makes getting articles obvious, minimizes the number of clicks to full text, reduces frustration of waiting for pages to load, helps avoid broken links and paywall dead-ends, and decreases unnecessary helpdesk/ILL requests by helping users access articles immediately.
