LibKey Nomad is a browser add-on for the Chrome browser that facilitates access to articles available through KDI Central Library subscriptions. It links our link resolver service(Find it @ KDI CL) to publisher web sites to show when the Library has a subscription and if not, to point you to other ways to access an article. And because it is a browser tool, you will know if an article is available before you have to log in.
*Link resolver: It is a service that provides link information of data to users based on the mutual links of electronic resources that the library subscribes to.
LibKey Nomad is currently only available for Chrome.
