Before making links to individual articles from your course pages or elsewhere, please be aware that the library would like to list these readings in the Library Reserves section of the online catalog. This will assist students in finding ALL of the readings for their class in one place. You may request the addition of these links by filling out the Electronic Reserve Request form. For more information contact Phyllis McQuaide, xx3173 in the Hawthorne-Longfellow library.
When you find an article in an online database, the URL that appears in your
browser navigation bar may not be valid after you close the browser window.
A Stable URL must be determined to provide long term linking to an
article. Each database and/or vendor has a slightly different presentation and
format of these URLs, which are sometimes also referred to as Durable
or Persistent. Instructions for determining the Stable URL of an article
from the most frequently referenced resources are linked to the database icons
below.
Ensuring off campus access is a second consideration in linking journal articles.
This is accomplished by prepending proxy server information to the URL link
to make it Complete. A Complete URL results in a browser prompt for
user name and password when necessary. The general form of the proxy server
prefix for Bowdoin is:
http://academic.bowdoin.edu:9000/login?url=
If you have accessed a resource from off campus, the proxy information will
already be contained in the URL. On campus, whether or not the URL is complete
depends on the vendor. If the Stable URL listed with the resource begins with
some form of this prefix, the URL is complete. Otherwise, the proxy server prefix
must be prepended for off campus access to be granted.
Example Link (The full link would be on one line. Here it is on multiple lines
for display only):
The HTML to include a link to this article by title in a web page is (As above,
the full link should be on one line, without breaks in the code.):
To make links to the library's subscription databases it is best to use the URLs below. This assures that the URL is stable, and is accessible from both on and off campus.

It is possible to make links to the results of queries in the Library Catalog.
For example, you could make a link to a list of English/Spanish
Dictionaries.
You can link to searches in Phebe based on any indexed field, e.g., subject,
title, author, etc. All searches begin with http://phebe.bowdoin.edu/search/
followed by the indexed tag, a question mark, and the search terms, separated
by a "+" sign where you would normally use a space. For word searches,
a sort order must also be added. All searches most also have a search scope.
see examples below.
Below are a few examples.
NOTE: For title searches, it may actually be easier to link directly to the
record by its OCLC number rather than by the title words. For example, the following
link would also take you to the title Bat Whispers, via an OCLC number search:
http://phebe.bowdoin.edu/search/o?40464182&searchscope=1
. To determine the OCLC number of a record, find the title, choose Marc
Display, and take the number from the 001 field, which is listed at the top.
Connect to the title from the library catalog. Cut and paste the url from
the browser location bar (e.g., the resulting url is permanent).
When viewing the page you wish to link to, go to the InfoTools menu and
select Copy Bookmark. This copies the link to the clipboard and you may
paste it into any document.
For more information or assistance in creating links to library resources, please contact Mike McDermott (mmcderm2@bowdoin.edu;
725-3856) in the Hawthorne-Longfellow Library.
