New LexisNexis / Nexis Uni linking solution
It feels like a very small minority of links to Nexis Uni content resolve successfully. I've opened a number of support tickets without much progress, only to be told that LexisNexis/Nexis Uni simply doesn't work well with the OpenURL resolver. I'd like more development work to go into this connection as it renders a large amount of content in a very popular database inaccessible.

Hello,
As of August 2022 the article level linking was removed from Nexis Uni as we could not support it with the currently available metadata.

We offer two other linking solutions from Summon: Index Enhanced Direct Linking, and Quicklinks. I am going to transfer this idea to the Content forum so that the Provider Relations team work with the appropriate team on the LN side.

Is part of this issue at LexisNexis' end? In that for link resolvers the only landing place is a search box where it is VERY hard to see that the publication name has been prepopulated into the source field for search? It seems to me that LexisNexis needs to respond to linking queries in a more modern way, too.
