Don't list 1science oaFindr PCI collection as open access
Not a new collection, but a revision to an existing collection. We have activated the oaFindr PCI collection from 1science, and we've run into a problem. We noticed that the proxy string wasn't being added to these links, because it has been marked as an Open Access collection. While the full text is OA, linking passes through oaFindr, which requires authentication. So the links are not really free to read, and should not be marked as such. We do not wish to proxy all OA materials, so we'd prefer to see this marked as a subscription access database, as access does indeed require a subscription.
Hello,
Such requests are better processed via support cases so that we can address them in a more timely manner.
Best,
Rael

Hi Chris -
I can see in the PCI widget that oaFindr requires subscription Search and Delivery. So, I don't see how it could be marked as an Open Access collection.
I wonder if a SF case would not be better to fix the issue you describe.François
