    Question

    What's in the LINK and LINK_TEXT fields of the ELINK_INDEX table?

    Answer

    The values in the LINK and LINK_TEXT fields in the ELINK_INDEX table are derived from the 856 field of the corresponding bib, MFHD, or authority record.

     

    Additional Information

    • The ELINK_INDEX table is a very handy place to find URLs from various types of records. 
    • The record_id is either an auth_id, a bib_id, an eitem_id, or a mfhd_id, depending on the value of record_type.
    • The values for record_type are A for Authority, B for Bibliographic, E for Electronic item, and M for MFHD.
