Serials Solutions has to do it on their end. Usually, we find there is a journal package in the client center that includes our titles, although sometimes it has much more. In that case we click on “Only selected titles” on the general page and then mark each of the titles we do have as “subscribed.” Also, if the Serials Solutions package title does not match the title your consortium uses, you can put in a “custom title” on the general page.
Really big consortia sometimes get Serials Solutions to put in a special package just for their libraries.
Good luck!

Subject: [SERIALST] Serials Solutions 360Link and Library Specific databases
Hi,
While we are on the subject of Serials Solutions, I had a question for you 360Link pros out there. For the Library Specific Holdings databases (ones you created yourself), do any of them present Article-level links in the 360Link page?
We have a number of consortium-specific journal packages with particular title lists. I created new databases for them and loaded the appropriate title lists. Now none of them seem to have Article level links on 360Link. I’ve tested this from various EBSCOhost databases and Web of Science. The Journal level links are there, but we strongly prefer to resolve to the Article level.
Is there some magic setting I can change to fix this? Or does Serials Solutions have to create the database from their end?
Thanks,
