Creating Links to Library Resources

This guide describes how to create links to library databases

Linking to an individual Database

1. Go to the library Databases page.

2. When you find the database you want, right click and choose "copy link address"

3. Paste the link where you want it

Done!

Creating link Manually

You can also create your link manually by simply adding the proxy server prefix to your link.

Find your database link. Let's take the database Academic Search Premier from EBSCOhost as an example.
The url for this database is:
https://search.ebscohost.com/login.asp?profile=web&defaultdb=aph

Next, add the proxy server url to the front:
https://bucks.idm.oclc.org/login?url=

The final link will look like this:
https://bucks.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://search.ebscohost.com/login.asp?profile=web&defaultdb=aph
