What is LibKey Nomad? What does the LibKey browser plugin do?
Answer
LibKey Nomad, or just Nomad, is a plugin for Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge browsers that helps you find journal article PDFs quickly and easily. Nomad is installed on all Mayo Clinic computers by default. When you browse to a webpage containing a journal article DOI, a small button will appear in the lower left corner, linking you to the library's subscription to that journal, or enabling you to order the article via our Document Delivery system. Complete details about Nomad can be found in our guide.
There are other article finder plugins like Nomad available, including EndNote Click. Nomad has been selected as the default plugin for the Mayo Clinic Libraries.
