Enable open URL link resolver buttons in shared folders opened by non-RefWorks users
I am my campus' RefWorks administrator and a reference librarian. We use RefShare in legacy RefWorks to send search results to our patrons. Use of our search service nearly trebled during the three years after we licensed legacy RefWorks and we believe this is largely due to the presence of a "GetIt@UNMC" button in each record in our RefShare format search results. Many search service users became interested in using RefWorks after receiving search results in RefShare format. A "shared folder" feature without "GetIt@___" open url link resolver buttons visible to non-RefWorks-account holders is of limited use to us.

Not having the option of a full text link available in folders shared with our users who do not have or want to create a RefWorks account is a significant limitation in workflow and utility of New RefWorks compared to Legacy.

Please enable open URL link resolver buttons in shared folders opened by non-RefWorks users.
Moving over to New RefWorks, and this Legacy feature is an integral part of why we use RefWorks!

Yes, please! We also had used this feature of legacy RefWorks to deliver mediated search results, allowing recipients to click through to full text without needing to create an account.
Proving an option to display the institutional link resolver in public shares would be very helpful.

I would like to have our LinkResolver links visible in publicly shared folders as an alternative to attachments. That way we can prevent giving illegal access to subscription based articles outside our institution.

We would also like to be able to add a "GetIt@_your library" button or link in the bibliographies we send to patrons.
