How to Directly Link to an Article (Example from an EBSCO Database)

1. Find the article you want to link to in one of our library's databases.

2. Click on "PDF Full Text"

3. Copy and paste the article's permalink into your Brightspace course.

4. Do NOT use the link in the URL bar. It will not work.

PLEASE NOTE

EBSCO permalinks require an extra step due to problems with EBSCO's compatibility with our school's proxy server. 

You must paste the permalink from EBSCO into a URL decoder such as www.urldecoder.org and decode the link. Use the new link in your Brightspace course.
