How to Save Links for Later (Using Permalinks)

Saving Links for Later Using Permalinks

Want to save an article or book to find it later? Use a permalink or stable URL. Don’t copy the link from your browser—it won’t work for library sources.

Library Catalog: Look for "Permalink to this Record" near the item’s location.
EBSCO Databases: Open the article and click "Permalink."
Other Databases: Follow their specific permalink instructions (Nexis Uni and JSTOR).
