 +OPs in Open Access & Free Targets break all the time. You can let them slide. The bigger issue is to look for patterns of big breaks. (Did you get five Wiley Broken Links? There'​s probably an issue there) Individual breaks can often be because of bad metadata. (incorrect DOI, ISSN, etc)

 Two or more targets may be compared using the Collection Tool found on the SFX Admin. Use "​Compare packages/​sets of packages"​. Choose "​All"​ if you wish to include deactivated titles.

   * Report to SFX: Problems with linking (not metadata), SFX functionality,​ requests to update a target, questions about platform changes and targets, etc. ExLibris is often not interested in metadata problems because they are relying on publisher/​vendor data to inform targets. The exception is individual subscriptions,​ especially in the MISCELLANEOUS EJOURNALS or association targets like Highwire. Do not report metadata problems for databases or NERL targets (contact publisher or NERL to request they send updated files to ExLibris). For journal packages, use best judgement.   * Report to SFX: Problems with linking (not metadata), SFX functionality,​ requests to update a target, questions about platform changes and targets, etc. ExLibris is often not interested in metadata problems because they are relying on publisher/​vendor data to inform targets.
