Persistent Article Links

Please use these instructions to create persistent links from your webpage, Scholar/Blackboard course, or document to articles in databases. This will ensure that your links will work reliably and that the links will work from off campus. If your database is not listed here, technical or licensing reasons prevent article linking.
Important note: Do not go through JournalFinder to get to the full-text article. To create reliable urls, use direct links to the databases from the Library's home page or the Databases A to Z page, and then follow the instructions below.

One final note: be aware that your off-campus users may be required to login.

Please email the Library or call the Reference Desk if there is a problem. (757-594-7132)
