Articles: Permalinks
Permalinks
When you assign course readings, films, and other library resources to your students, you should include the resource's permalink/permanent link/persistent URL to enable quick access and compliance to copyright law. Each database will place the permalink in a different location. Note: Database articles need the proxy prefix added before the permalink.

The Proxy Prefix
The library's proxy prefix is https://moorparkcollege.idm.oclc.org/login?url= and allows resources to be accessed off-campus.
For example, a Academic Search Complete article with the following permalink:
- http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=a9h&AN=137596914&site=ehost-live
Will need the proxy prefix added to the beginning for it to work:
- https://moorparkcollege.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=a9h&AN=137596914&site=ehost-live
