How do I know if a persistent link will work from outside the FGCU campus network?

0

In order for a link to an article to work from outside the FGCU campus network, it must contain special coding that will allow FGCU users to access the article using their FGCU ID number. Follow these steps to determine if your persistent link will work off campus. Does the URL or link that you found have the word “ezproxy” somewhere in it? If yes, the link is ready to be saved or shared. If no, the link will need to be put into the Article Link Generator before you save or share it. 5. What is the Article Link Generator? The Article Link Generator is a tool that will add coding to a persistent link found in a database that will allow it to be used from outside the FGCU campus network if it is not already embedded in the URL. Putting a URL through the Article Link Generator will not allow non-FGCU affiliates to access online library-licensed resources. Only FGCU students, staff, and faculty with valid 14 digit ID numbers have remote access to library-licensed electronic resources. 6. H
