Due to copyright law and database license restrictions, faculty should not upload full-text articles into Blackboard that were downloaded from Geisel Library's research databases. Instead, faculty should link to those database articles directly from their Blackboard course pages.
However, if you copy a database link from your Internet browser into Blackboard, that link will most likely stop working by the next day. To remedy this shortcoming, most database companies now offer persistent links for each of their articles and citations. Persistent links (also known as persistent URLs, or "PURLs") are stable links that will consistently take students to a particular full-text article or a citation in a research database.
This guide explains how to find or create persistent links to articles in many of Geisel Library's full-text databases. Note that to ensure access by off-campus users, all persistent links should include proxy information in the first segment of the URL. The form of the link should be as follows.
http://0-[website URL].library.anselm.edu/[remainder of URL]
Most databases automatically provide persistent links that incorporate the proxy server information; if not, you will need to add the items in boldface above. Please contact the Reference Desk if you need any assistance with this process.
These instructions apply to databases that can be searched from the Geisel Library website. You may also locate full-text articles in one of our online journal collections, either through using Journal Finder or WebBridge. For example, articles are available from Annual Reviews, Emerald, Sage, and Wiley InterScience. In general, the article links you encounter on these publisher-specific websites will be persistent, so they can be copied into Blackboard.
