Hello Trisha, Yes, you shouldn't have any problems bringing in your 856 links, as long as Athena can export your records into MARC. Same for display and linking to outside URL's (Evergreen's default OPAC display can be highly customized, so you can always customize the display and functionality of each field).

Does Evergreen handle 856 field conversions nicely? How does Evergreen handle 856 linking to outside urls? Well? clunky? horribly? Thanks in advance.
