Peer Research Consultants: Databases

Permalinks

Sharing the search link at the top of the browser doesn't give students access to the search you have been doing. Instead, there are links in the databases that can be shared with students (or this team!) that are called Permalinks.  There are two ways to do this:

  • Sharing a specific article
    • When looking at the article, there is a button that says "permalink." Click on it and it provides the permalink for that article which you can copy and paste to share.
  • Sharing a full list of search results
    • When looking at the results list, there is a button that says "permalink." Click on it and it provides the permalink for that article which you can copy and paste to share.
