I've done some work on improving the openURL server at http://law.wlu.edu/library/resolver.asp. You can enter a journal name and find what databases are likely to hold full-text. Entering just the journal name will usually retrieve a link to the journal and the site level of the online supplier. If you also include what you know of volume, issue, page, year, or article title then you may get links to various levels such as article, issue, or volume. Publishers have differing requirements, so e.g. Oxford University Press requires volume, issue and either the page or the article title, whereas other publishers may be happy with just volume and page. Article level links are available into Westlaw, Lexis, and HeinOnline.
