What is a linking verb?

Should is a modal auxiliary verb (helping verbs). Be is a verb, the most irregular in English.

They should be grateful.

In this sentence be is the main verb, and should a modal auxiliary verb. I guess they are doing the job of a linking verb.

The word should is both an auxiliary verb (it helps to form new tense structures) and a modular verb (it expresses the speakers opinion, or understanding of the situation).

We go there every Sunday. (simple statement of fact).

We should go there every Sunday. (obligation or duty).

We would be bored to tears if we should go there every Sunday. (describing a situation which is possible, but is currently not the case).
