EBSCO Permalinks are Correctly Preformatted Starting May 2019
If you have links to the Ray Howard Library databases prior to May 2019, you will need to fix the links using the instructions on the home tab of this guide.
When you click the permalink button in the right sidebar, it will reveal the sharable address to that specific article, video, or ebook. You may use this to link to this resource in your Canvas class, in a website, an email, or any other place where you might share a hyperlink. Prior to May 2019, the permalink will be accurate and you will not need to take any additional steps to correct the link for this resource.
Since LibGuides is set up to add the proxy for each resource individually, using the interface to add the proxy can save us a lot of time and future broken links. If the proxy ever changes in the future, we can add the change in the dashboard and it will retroactively change every link that has chosen "Yes" for Use Proxy.
ProQuest provides permanent links through email or the citation feature. The prefix is already added and will work from off-campus. Choose MLA 8 to see a citation that includes the permalink for the displayed article, then select and copy that link, taking care to omit the period at the end of the citation. Alternatively, you can have ProQuest email the citation to you, using the email feature.
If the proxy has been embedded in the middle of the link as ".ezproxy.shoreline.edu" remove it from there also. Be sure to remove the period at the beginning.

JSTOR provides a stable link on list view (seen below after the DOI) and at the end of each citation, but the proxy prefix will have to be added in order to be used off campus. The email function provides a temporary link. Do not use the emailed temporary link in Canvas, LibGuides, or for other permanent links.

For Ovid, click the title of the resource and then click "Email Jumpstart" to get both a direct link to the resource and an option to email this link to yourself. The link will be formatted differently if you are accessing the site from off-campus, but both versions of the "Jumpstart Link" should work as a permalink.
