Hi -

Following up to see if anyone is using EZP to access Flipster and able to
share set up. The issue is when accessing the resource via regular web
browser (not mobile app),  "profile=eon"is removed from the url and patron
lands on the community.asp page and then has to scroll to the bottom of the
EBSCO page to select Flipster from the list.

Thanks,

Tim
