Linking the Library

It is possible to link to a wide array of targets, including individual articles, databases, subject categories and more.  The linking feature is available for all databases to which Blackwell Library subscribes.  For a complete list of linking information, please refer to http://itd.umd.edu/dbs/LinkingGuide.html.

It is most common to link to an individual article.  These are the instructions for doing so:

  1. Perform a search within the Research Port interface.

  2. Click on the button for the desired article.

  3. When the full-text of an article is available, click on save citation and link.

  4. Copy and paste the resulting URL into any webpage or WebCT page, which will allow students to link directly to articles of your choice.

  5. Users can access the article from on or off-campus, but will be required to login when accessing the article remotely.
