MILI Module #5 - Creating Permalinks to Articles in Library Databases: Home

What Are Permalinks?

Did you know that if you copy and paste the URL of a journal article directly from your internet browser's search bar that it will expire and you won't be able to access your article when you open the link later?

Permalinks are designed to make sure that you can always access your article - they don't expire!

This guide will demonstrate how to create permanent links of journal articles found in some of the Kreitzberg Library's most popular databases.
